Welcome to The Legendary Marriage Podcast!  This is the Marriage & Relationships podcast that inspires and challenges busy couples like you to stop settling for an ordinary marriage, and make yours legendary! We are Danielle and Justin Williams, and we are 2 very different people who have been married for 20 years.  Our marriage has gone through all kinds of trials & challenges, including a 9-year long infertility battle, mental health struggles, a financial crisis, a pandemic, and a whole lot of drama that almost ended us back in 2005.  We made it through that, (and a million other things), and we vowed to find a way over, around, or through every obstacle, issue and opportunity, to build a life, a love, and a legacy together.  Over the last 10+ years, we've been helping thousands of other couples do the same, through our coaching, speaking, teaching and this podcast.  We started The Legendary Marriage Podcast back in  2016 because we wanted to share what we have learned along the way, and how we're still learning and growing every day, because marriage isn't a thing you “fix” or “solve.” It's not an event, or a destination, it's an adventure! New episodes release on Mondays, featuring interviews with amazing couples, and incredible experts, authors and influencers sharing their stories, ideas, insights, and wisdom about what it really takes to build a legendary marriage full of intimacy & connection, fun & Adventure, passion & purpose. Each episode is aimed to tackle the issues and topics that matter to you, like sex, money, parenting, conflict, communication, and more, AND -  includes actionable take-aways to help you ignite intimacy & connection in your marriage today! With more 200 Episodes to choose from, we suggest starting with EPISODE 073: Understanding your spouse's Needs, with Terri Snead, OR EPISODE: 063: Discover your erotic blueprint, with Suzan Acker. These are the episodes that other listeners have found most helpful this year. Of course, you can listen and subscribe to The Legendary Marriage Podcast anywhere podcasts can be found, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google, Amazon, and more. Or at legendarymarriage.com/listen. You can also find & Follow us on Facebook and Instagram: we are @LegendaryMarriages, and we love hearing from you! It's time to put the passion and fun, and adventure back in your marriage. It's time for the legendary marriage podcast!   Don't settle for an ordinary marriage… make yours LEGENDARY!

In this episode... 2020 was a Dumpster Fire, and we've been slipping into “survival mode” around the Williams house, and that's not good. Making bold declarations about “2021 being the best year ever” doesn't  seem wise, so what do we do now? It's time to get clear about what's important, and where we're going. Conversation Starters… "Survival mode" is dangerous because we end up missing out on the good stuff of life. When you are married, and have a family, you are not a completely autonomous individual. Talking about your hopes, dreams, and goals builds intimacy & connection. Talk About It... Each week we challenge you to set a time with your spouse to have a conversation that matters.
