De-escalation and acknowledgement in conflict

The 30-Minute Connection Ritual 👉 htt[ps://frontrowdads.com/connection

This is a quick ~11-minute episode built around one powerful idea: Schedule 30 minutes a week to reconnect with your wife — no phones, no distractions, just presence.

Because in a hard season, you can't always fix the problem… but you can protect the connection.

In this week's episode, two Front Row Dads, Jason Brondstad and David Aceves break down the simple weekly ritual David uses to stay on the same team with his wife — especially when life feels heavy.

Here's the ritual:

• Put 30 minutes on the calendar (weekly)

• No phones. No screens. No distractions.

• Ask two questions:

• "How are you really feeling?"

• "What are you really struggling with?"

• And when there's nothing to "fix," lead with presence:

• "What do you need right now?"

• "Do you want to be hugged?"
