Stop Measuring Your Marriage by How Happy You Feel

Your marriage isn’t failing just because you don’t feel happy today.

Happiness is a moving target — influenced by hormones, stress, weather, and how much sleep you got last night. If you measure the health of your marriage by your emotional highs and lows, you’ll always feel uncertain.

Instead, ask yourself:
Am I showing up with peace, joy, and contentment — even when things aren’t ideal?

True emotional maturity in marriage means learning to generate internal stability, not waiting for your spouse to behave a certain way so you can feel okay.

Peace isn’t something your marriage gives you.
It’s something you bring to your marriage.

And when both partners stop waiting to "feel happy" and start cultivating purpose and responsibility — that’s when real joy begins.

Inside Marriage in Bloom, I teach you how to build that kind of internal stability — so your love isn’t ruled by your moods.

Start building something deeper than happiness:
