248 | Everything we wish we knew as newlyweds
In today’s episode we made a list of things we wish we could tell ourselves as newlyweds. It was so fun to reminisce on the “honeymoon phase” after we got married and think of all the ways we’ve grown individually and as a couple since then. We hope this episode encourages you in whatever stage of marriage you’re currently in and to our single friends out there, don’t settle! Marriage is such a gift when it’s with the right person and that person is worth the wait :)
Love you guys!
