What with Summer coming to an end, Labor Day Weekend coming up, and getting ready to be back from Summer Mode, I figured I’d do something a little bit different for you with this post… Because we are transitioning into a new season, a new chapter, a new beginning, it behooves us to get ready to ease into it. And what better way than taking some time to get motivated and inspired to create what we desire. Therefore, I curated a list of love, relationship, and marriage podcasts to draw from. Why not listen to the experts and the experienced on how to create your successful relationship. Who better to ask about the best podcasts for relationship advice than a marriage therapist?
Let me tell you, it was not easy compiling this list. But I’m super excited with what I came up with, and to share some of my favorites. I loved listening to these podcasts about marriage and relationships. You may think that after helping couples professionally for over 20 years and working as a licensed marriage therapist every week that I wouldn’t find these interesting and insightful, but I did. And I really enjoyed the variety of topics and the production of the shows.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I did- you can give a listen while driving in the car or commuting, doing chores or exercising, or lounging by a poolside. Podcasts offer an easy yet powerful way to gain relationship-building insights for enriching your relationship, and you can tune in to your favorite platform from anywhere. You can add listening to podcasts to your relationship enrichment activities…
The right podcast can inspire you, give practical advice, and also go behind the scenes to show you how a successful marriage is created and nurtured. My favorites have hosts with either years of professional training and experience and is able to help you navigate the intricacies of marriage, or podcasters with relationship wisdom and successful relationship experience.
There are podcasts for every stage of your relationship. Whether you are now starting to get involved in a committed relationship, preparing yourself for marriage, or looking for ways to sustain a marriage over time there is something for you. You can learn how to rekindle the passion in your relationship, foster a friendship with your partner, and help your marriage thrive than merely just survive.
I have found podcasts that help handle finances, share household responsibilities, manage stress, overcome infidelity, and even blend families through remarriage. I chose a few to share with you that I felt would be the most impactful. They cover a nice range from podcasters to relationship experts themselves and some others in between. I listed them with their descriptions for your convenience. You are welcome.
