What the Megan Thee Stallion/Klay Thompson situation and 5 years of marriage taught me:
1 It takes TWO people to make it work.
A good partner isn’t enough on his or her own. BOTH people have to be willing to lay down their ego, take accountability, and actually choose each other, every single day.
2. Healed people love differently.
Hurt people hurt people, and you can’t build a healthy relationship from a broken foundation. When you do the inner work, love and forgiveness flow through you in ways that change the way you treat the other person and value the relationship.
3. Vulnerability IS the foundation.
Being willing to be seen, even in your mess, and owning it when you drop the ball opens the door to real communication, and open communication leads to a healthy relationship.
4. Trust, fidelity, and respect are non-negotiable.
Know your values BEFORE you get into a relationship, so emotions and desperation don’t talk you out of your standards.
5. Your words are seeds.
Speak life over your partner and your relationship. And when you mess up (because you will), go back and water what you damaged. Words build or destroy so choose them wisely.
As I celebrate 5 years of marriage, I am grateful for my husband and the amazing things that we’ve accomplished together and the growth each of us has made to make this marriage full of JOY!
