How To Reconnect With Your Spouse
In this episode, Gino & Julia discuss and ask each other these questions: How has life changed since you’ve first met? How are you actively being an example for those around you (family friends, strangers)? When life changes-How am I going to approach it. How am I going to guide the rest of the family? We don't realize how situations affect others…how are we finding out how they're dealing with it? How do we react to family feuds? Our relationship has changed and developed the past twenty plus years, and if we are not careful, then we can begin to drift apart. These questions help us to stay connected and continue to grow together.
