Division isn’t just a problem in the world—it’s creeping into homes, marriages, and families everywhere. When couples start turning against each other instead of standing together, the bond that once felt safe and secure begins to weaken.

These subtle but destructive patterns slowly undermine connection and emotional safety, often without you even realizing it. We’ll clearly define what each of these behaviors looks and sounds like—and why they’re so damaging to your closeness and trust. More importantly, we’ll share how to stop them before they erode your foundation.  👉 And don’t miss our live + free Marriage WebClass: The 5 Root Causes of Conflict and Disconnection in a Marriage.
