Do you travel back to your hometown for thanksgiving? How does this holiday effect you? Sharon and Christy both head back home to visit family and share some of their struggles.
In episode 9, Sharon and Christy talk about the 5 Love Languages as a follow up to their initial date night episode (#6). Lasting relationships, like anything worthwhile, take intentional commitment over time. But when you’re just not on the same page, keeping your love alive can feel intimidating – or even impossible.
In his #1 New York Times bestseller, The 5 Love Languages®, Dr. Gary Chapman presents a simple truth: relationships grow better when we understand each other. Everyone gives and receives love differently, but with a little insight into these differences, we can be confidently equipped to communicate love well. This is true for all forms of relationship – for married or dating couples, for children and teenagers, for friends and coworkers, for long-distance relationships, for those brand-new loves and for the romances that are older than the hills.
