Relationship Renovation! Surviving the Early Years of Parenthood with Your Relationship Intact
Relationships shift dramatically once a baby enters the chat. Honestly, it might be the biggest transition your partnership will ever face! Our guests this week are the incredible Tarah and EJ Kerwin — a married couple, both mental health practitioners, who run the Relationship Renovation Counseling Center and host the Relationship Renovation Podcast, where they tackle marriage, intimacy, and communication head-on.What makes them especially unique? They don’t just teach this stuff… they’ve lived it. After having children, their marriage hit a breaking point and nearly ended. Now, they’re sharing what pulled them back from the edge — and the tools they now use to help thousands of couples do the same. We discuss the effects of resentment, rage, intimacy issues and sleep deprivation on our relationships AND how to get back on the same team as your partner. Buckle up, it's a good one!Want more from our guests?Check out the Relationship Renovation Center HEREListen to the Relationship Renovation Podcast HEREWant more from Sarah?Personal Instagram: @SarahMerrill_HallShare some Laughs: @bigkidproblemsCheck out our new Show IG! @bottleserviceBKPShop Sarah's Pregnancy/ Postpartum Must Haves on AmazonShop Bottle Service MERCH!
