21 Years of Marriage… and the One Thing I’ve Learned After Kids

21 Years of Marriage… and the One Thing I’ve Learned After Kids

Here's a 150-word summary in the first person:

As the host of the Momplex Podcast, I want to share my insights on maintaining a strong marriage after having kids. Marriage is like a team sport, and the key is remembering you're on the same team. In my 21-year marriage, I've learned that small moments matter more than grand gestures. Flirting, supporting each other, and recognizing each other's efforts are crucial.

I've experienced the challenges of parallel lives after having children - feeling disconnected, exhausted, and struggling to maintain intimacy. But I've discovered that redefining romance, embracing micro-moments of connection, and letting each other be imperfect can keep the relationship alive.

My message is simple: choose each other every day. Whether it's a quick hug, a flirty text, or helping with household chores, these small acts of teamwork can reignite your connection and remind you why you fell in love in the first place.
