EP 258: Maybe It's Time to Get a Divorce and a New Relationship, Hear Me Out!
(Ildiko Solo Episode; Becoming Unshakable)

ENTREPRENEUR PARENTS PODCAST
Hosted by Dan Caldwell and Ildiko Ferenczi

What if the key to saving your marriage isn't leaving… but starting over with the same person?

In this deeply moving and hope-filled episode, Ildiko Ferenczi invites couples to "divorce" the old version of their relationship, the one that drifted into distraction, and begin a new one built on curiosity, forgiveness, laughter, and God-centered renewal.

From restaurant tables where families are scrolling instead of connecting, to the quiet truth about emotional neglect and repair, this conversation blends therapist-backed insight from the Gottman Institute with biblical truth from Ephesians 5 and 1 Corinthians 13.

You'll learn how to:
✅ Rebuild emotional intimacy through daily check-ins and curiosity.
✅ Break the cycle of bitterness with forgiveness rituals that invite God into your marriage.
✅ Show your children what real love and repair look like in action.
✅ Heal emotional distance with humor, grace, and presence.

Because you don't need a new spouse —
you just need a new strategy… and a renewed heart. 💞

🕊️ Key Takeaways
   •    Therapist Insight: The Gottman Institute's research shows that repair — not perfection — keeps love alive.
   •    Faith Insight: Love and respect are two sides of one covenant (Ephesians 5:33).
   •    Legacy Lesson: Children learn emotional safety by watching parents reconnect, not by witnessing perfection.
   •    Practical Step: Rebuild connection through curiosity, forgiveness, prayer, and shared moments of laughter.

✍️ Couples Legacy Journal Prompts
Take a quiet moment tonight — after the kids are asleep or before the day begins — and write these together:
1️⃣ When do I feel most loved by you?
2️⃣ What's one thing I miss about how we used to be — and one thing I love about who we're becoming?
3️⃣ How can we invite God back into the center of our marriage this week?
4️⃣ What can we forgive and release so our home feels lighter?
Because healing starts where humility meets grace. 🌿

"You don't need a new spouse, you need a new strategy and a renewed heart."
