Marriage Isn’t Supposed to Be Easy, But Should It Be This Hard?

Is your relationship worth fighting for… or is it time to let go?

You can ask your friends. You can read all the books. But sometimes the only way to really know what’s going on in your marriage… is to live through it.

In this episode, Audrina and Sydney open up about their previous marriages, the hard lessons they learned the messy way, and what they’d do differently if they could do it all again. From unhealthy dynamics to silent resentment to fighting for something that just wasn’t right, they share it all - no shame, no sugarcoating.

A great marriage isn’t “easy.” (That’s a myth.) The tough question is: Are you willing to fight for it?

In this conversation, you’ll hear:

• Why Sydney says her marriage to a good, growth-minded partner is harder, and better, than the one she left
• The advice she gave her brother about marriage (and the one question you have to ask yourself before you commit)
• What to do if you catch yourself constantly pointing the finger at your partner
• How to set expectations early and communicate through hard seasons before things quietly implode
• The one thing that ended both Sydney and Audrina’s marriages, and why it’s more common than you think
• The three relationship killers to watch for… and the one dealbreaker that ends everything
• What Audrina’s relationship looks like now, and what they’ve gotten so much better at
• What they wish they knew about love, partnership, and fighting for something that’s actually worth the work

If you’re in a relationship, out of one, or somewhere in between, this episode will help you tune into what really matters.
