Have you considered a separation in your marriage? A listener wrote asking about the right way to do a separation. How long should it be? What are the "rules of engagement"? We're discussing reasons for separation, establishing clear rules, and knowing the realities of the situation, including the need for a timeline and the significance of having a plan for reconciliation (or not!).

Takeaways:

  • A separation doesn't necessarily solve the problem.
  • Know your why before entering a separation.
  • Establish rules of engagement prior to separation.
  • Separation can be beneficial if done correctly.
  • Seek professional help before deciding on separation.
  • A plan is better than no plan at all.
  • Resources are available to help couples reignite their marriage
