This episode tackles a sensitive but important question many couples avoid: Do you love your kids more than your spouse?

We’re pulling back the curtain on what happens when the marriage takes a backseat to parenting. While the love for your children and your spouse are different, when one consistently overshadows the other, the foundation of your family can quietly start to crack.

In this conversation, we explore:

• The subtle signs you may be prioritizing your kids over your marriage
• Why this dynamic is so common—especially for moms
• How this imbalance can affect your kids more than you realize
• Practical ways to reconnect and realign your priorities as a couple

Whether you're in the thick of parenting or feeling the emotional distance with your spouse growing, this episode offers truth, grace, and real steps to start shifting the dynamic.
