In this soulful and eye-opening episode of Courageous Couples, Jon Christian and Jen Jean take us into the often-unspoken territory of burnout within relationships. While burnout is usually associated with work, Jon highlights how it subtly infiltrates partnerships, through emotional disconnection, unspoken expectations, and a lack of self-awareness. Listeners are invited to explore how emotional stability and awareness can help couples catch burnout before it breaks down connection. Jon reframes boundaries not as walls, but as a love language, a powerful way to prevent resentment and protect relational energy. The episode wraps with a discussion on rituals and intentional moments that foster emotional safety and joy. Whether you're running on empty or simply looking to deepen your connection, this episode is a gentle call to re-center, reconnect, and care for the relationship as much as you care for each other.  Key Takeaways: Burnout can manifest quietly and erode connection over time. Emotional awareness is foundational for healthy relationships. Boundaries are not barriers—they're bridges to deeper intimacy. Communication and self-compassion go hand in hand. Burnout is contagious—stability starts with the self. Micro rituals (even 3 minutes!) can reignite connection. Journaling supports emotional clarity and intentional love. Love should nourish, not deplete. Chapters: 00:00 – Understanding Burnout in Relationships 09:09 – The Importance of Boundaries as a Love Language 20:39 – Rituals and Intentions for Connection
