Falling Back In Love: Falling in Love with the Same Person — As the New You

Send us a text

If you've ever caught yourself thinking, “This isn’t what I imagined it would be,” about your marriage then this is for you!
Maybe you’ve felt the spark fade, the connection slip, or the weight of distance between you grow heavier as time goes on.

If so, this week’s episode of the AwakenYou in Your Marriage Podcast is especially for you.

In Episode 236, “Falling in Love with the Same Person—As the New You,” I talk about what happens when we stop trying to fix our spouse and start focusing on the inner work of healing and growth.

Because falling back in love doesn’t start with your partner—it starts with you.

When you take responsibility for your emotions, begin to heal old wounds, and learn to love yourself with compassion, your marriage starts to shift. You show up differently—less reactive, more open, more curious. You start seeing your spouse through fresh eyes, not as someone who needs to change for you to be happy, but as a person you can love again from a place of freedom and authenticity.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How personal growth reshapes love and changes the emotional dynamic in your marriage.
• Why understanding and embracing your own behaviors without guilt or shame is the key to change.
• How to rewrite the story of your relationship together, one small moment at a time.
• What it means to practice differentiation—loving your spouse without losing yourself.
• And how to start falling back in love with your spouse by becoming a more authentic version of you.

I also share a personal story about a season in my own marriage when I realized things weren’t what I thought they were. It was the moment I decided to “face the giant”—to finally seek the help I knew I needed but had been avoiding out of fear and shame.
That decision led to a journey of healing my past and rediscovering who I truly was. As I learned to treat myself with compassion and show up more authentically, our marriage began to transform.
