Reflect on the past year and acknowledge what went well, what goals were met, and what you are most grateful for. 💭
Then, communicate your expectations or desires for the new year.
What habits would you like to continue in your marriage?
Are there new things you are looking forward to trying?
How will you reach your spiritual or financial goals in the new year?

A. 1,000-2,000

D. 7,000+

It really is as simple as it sounds.
Walk. And. Talk.
Simple, and yet complicated. Walk and talk.
The walk and talk isn’t only surface conversation, but it’s also not always deep and heavy.
Nothing is off limits during a walk and talk, just let the conversation naturally happen.
What’s most important is that you take your first steps together and start talking.
