Episode 3166:
Angel Chernoff shares the opening habits from a list of nine that lasting couples build deliberately rather than stumble into. She covers looking for what you love about a partner precisely when they are hardest to love, refusing to let anger harden overnight, sending small messages of appreciation through an ordinary week, and keeping everyday physical affection alive. It is a case for the tiny daily gestures that quietly hold a marriage together.

Quotes to ponder:
"Healthy couples and lifelong fulfilling relationships do not just happen by accident. They are created consciously over time through mindful, mutual effort and sacrifice."
"It's easy to love our partners when the sailing is smooth, but learning to love them when the waters get rough is where a truly unstoppable team is built."
"Everything doesn't have to be resolved, but anger does need to be pacified."
