I have spoken in the past about the importance of preferences in communication. In this podcast I go a little deeper and explore one thing that can really prevent knowing and sharing your preferences and that is when you water them down before you even share then with yourself or with your spouse.

I also share what I think is the single most impactful antidote to watering down your preference and that is COURAGE.

Weaponized incompetence has a real impact in a marriage. It can be exacerbated in a mixed faith marriage or it can be one more thing that strains a mixed faith marriage.

In this podcast I give some examples on weaponized incompetence in daily life and specific to a mixed faith marriage.

Weaponized incompetence that is going on unchecked can lead increase in resentment, a breakdown in communicate and eventually emotional disconnection.

When there has been hurt and pain in a mixed faith marriage there needs to be both apologies and trust building. But PLEASE note they are not the same thing!

An apology does not automatically restore trust and safety.

An apology is a start and an important first step to re establishing trust.

In this podcast I give an example of a great trust building practice to develop in your marriage.
