ep 123 / Fun Is Not a Luxury: Why Joy Is Essential in Your Relationship
Manage episode 488118446 series 1946832
Sure, you’ve done the hard work—therapy, repair, tough conversations. But now what? In this feel-good episode of Relationship Dish, Pam and Iona dive into something couples often forget to prioritize: fun. From day trips to date nights, puzzles to pub nights, they explore how joy acts as a deposit in your relationship bank account—and why it’s crucial for long-term connection.
Pam shares honestly about the lack of joy in her past relationship and what lights her up now, while Iona talks about prioritizing fun with her husband after their daughter left home. They offer real-life ideas (and a hilarious lightning round!) to help you bring more play, laughter, and lightness into your love life—before and after the kids fly the coop.
Because fun isn’t frivolous—it’s the glue that keeps you together.
