Welcome back to the Naked Marriage Podcast with Dave & Ashley Willis! In today’s episode, we dive into the common misconception that marriage can magically fix all our problems. We get real about how, instead of being a quick fix, marriage often shines a light on our personal struggles and amplifies both the highs and the lows. We share some personal stories and chat about the power of grace, patience, and embracing each other's differences.
