The best teams in sports don’t win by accident—they follow a proven strategy. The same is true for marriage. If you want a strong, connected, and lasting relationship, you need a game plan.

A few episodes ago, we covered the five losing strategies that keep couples stuck in conflict. But avoiding the wrong moves isn’t enough—you need to know the winning plays that create trust, intimacy, and long-term success in your marriage.

In this episode, I’ll break down the five winning strategies that will help you and your wife communicate better, solve conflicts faster, and build the kind of marriage that feels like a true partnership.

✅ Why the best relationships are built on teamwork, not competition
✅ How to ask for what you need without starting a fight
✅ The key to expressing yourself in a way your wife can actually hear
✅ How to empower and uplift each other every single day

Key Takeaways:

💡 Complaints don’t create change—clear requests do.
