Four Decisions to Make Marriage Easier, with Arlene Pellicane

How to Love (and Like) Your Spouse for Life

As we continue in this February series of all things “Love and Marriage” on the podcast, I am thrilled to share one of my favorite people with you. Arlene Pellicane is funny and smart, and her most recent book, “Making Marriage Easier” is a must-read!

Many people today are pessimistic about marriage. Some of the data about divorce rates can be downright discouraging. However, research tells us that the happiest people on the planet are (still!) those in healthy marriages! In this episode Arlene walks us through four decisions that will help you clarify your values and create a clear path forward…ultimately making marriage easier!

I think you’ll love Arlene’s stories, and practical (funny!) approach to family life and marriage.
