More Than Roommates: Staying Connected When Life Is Full
Episode 2
Wednesday, 9 September, 2026
Ever had a season where your marriage feels more like a team meeting? In this episode of Hope in the Hard of Family Life, Alicia is joined by her husband, Cary, for an honest conversation about a full, prolonged season of work, ministry, coaching, kids, and nonstop logistics. They talk about the exhaustion and disconnection that can come when you're both running on fumes—and how easy it is to become more like roommates or teammates than spouses. Alicia and Cary share the small, intentional ways they worked to stay connected, from communication and everyday acts of love to learning that your spouse is a gift, not your source. They also reflect on how God used this season to deepen their dependence on Him and strengthen their marriage. If you're in a season where you're surviving more than thriving, this conversation is for you.
