Gratitude is not just a feeling; it is a practice that has the power to transform your marriage from the inside out. In this episode of Imperfectly Married, Michael and Heather unpack how choosing gratitude, especially when it does not come naturally, can rewire your mindset, rebuild connection, and shift the emotional climate of your relationship. Through honest stories, practical examples, and real moments from their own marriage, they explore how resentment, entitlement, comparison, and hurt quietly block connection, and why consistent appreciation becomes the antidote that restores unity, joy, and intimacy. Whether you are in a difficult season or simply want to strengthen the bond between you and your spouse, this episode gives you the tools to practice gratitude in meaningful ways that change how you see your partner, how you communicate, and how you show up for each other every day.
