There are some issues that need to be solved in a marriage and some things that need to be managed.
I think we sometimes want to solve things that need to be managed. Sometimes we resist managing things because we think they should be solved. Being in a mixed faith marriage is often an issue that needs to be managed and not solved.
I offer two things to try to help you manage your mixed faith marriage with more love and gentleness.

Let’s talk about sunk costs in a mixed faith marriage.

I give a few suggestions on how to not let sunk costs stop you from having the life and marriage you want.

In this podcast episode I teach a concept from my online course – Loving and Strengthening Your Mixed Faith Marriage. The concept is that of bringing awareness to the story you are telling about your mixed faith marriage. Often a faith transition can trigger the start of a negative story and then it perpetuates for months and even years if we don’t develop the awareness around our own stories.
I think it’s not uncommon for 80% of communication to be assumptions and subtext and 20% to be direct and verbal. I suggest that in a mixed faith marriage you may want to flip that around and bring more communication into the explicit and verbal to avoid hurt and frustration. In this podcast I talk about how to develop awareness around your assumptions and how to make them more direct.

I share a few ideas if this is happening in your mixed faith marriage.
Alcohol, cannabis, psilocybin and other substances may be new topics of discussion in your mixed faith marriage. These topics can be very polarizing. In this episode I will outline the main viewpoints I have seen on both sides and offer some ideas for consideration.
