Shownotes

How do we build emotionally strong marriages where our marriage doesn’t break under stresses and struggles? And just how can we use respect as a great tool to build this strength into our marriage?

In the first episode of Emotionally Strong Marriages – Making Space for Respect, join our host Joanna Koh-Hoe and married couple Jay and Lyn as they share from their own experience of how mutual respect help them build emotional strength into their marriage.

“Prior to attending Connect2 Marriage Preparation, one of the concerns we had related to our communication styles, personal differences, and ability to resolve conflict. Through the workshop, we learnt helpful principles and tips. We were equipped to tread through disagreements more carefully and have healthy conversations. The facilitators also shared about their personal, relatable experiences and helped us to better understand how to apply the handles.” 

– Clement and Chavonne, Connect2 participants
