"Do you hear the words coming out of my mouth?!" If we are honest, we all have felt this way talking to our spouse! Some of the worst advice we were given before we got married was, "If you just communicate, your marriage will be fine." There is more to it than that! Most people don't struggle to communicate, they struggle with nothing happening when they do! In this episode, Chris and Kim touch on communication, standing up for "yourself", and why arguing isn't always a bad thing.
