Is it love or is it codependency? In this eye-opening episode of Marriage Unmasked, we’re uncovering a struggle most couples face but few recognize: codependency.

We’ll peel back the layers to explore:

• What codependency really looks like in marriage
• How trying to keep the peace can actually create more disconnection
• Red flags that you may be stuck in a cycle of people-pleasing, fixing, or over-functioning
• How to start breaking free, getting your needs met and building a marriage rooted in love, not fear

If you’ve ever felt like your worth depends on your spouse’s mood, or that you’ve lost yourself trying to hold everything together, this episode is for you.

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.
