Listen "Counselling Feature: How do we Reconcile our Differences in Marriage?"
Episode Synopsis
“[Couples] all have good intent, but the expression looks different… it’s helping them find common ground, [where they realise] they're actually not against each other.” – Madelin Tay It is inevitable for differences to arise in marriage, so how do we go about navigating them? Joined by Madelin Tay, a counsellor from Focus on the Family Singapore, we discuss common sources of conflict, and how couples can adopt a growth mindset to work through them. She also shares practical tips on how addressing differences constructively helps couples strengthen their bond instead of pushing them apart. Tune in for valuable insights on reconciling differences in marriage.--“I was all ready to quit after seven years of marriage. The endless communication breakdowns, deep-seated misunderstandings, and growing resentment in me has taken its toll.” - Tricia (Name has been edited to protect the client’s privacy) Life can be overwhelming.
