#303 Being Married And Having Children Makes You Unhappy. The Shocking Truth?

  • Resumen

  • Does having children or being married make you more unhappy than single or childless individuals? Many people (rightly) say 'Yes'! That's why more and more people are choosing to remain single, to avoid long-term commitments, and to vow to never have children at all. Because it IS hard and often makes you 'unhappy'.But what if happiness is not the point of life? What if the challenges of marriage and parenting aren't something to avoid, but the very things that make life meaningful? In this episode, we dive into a conversation inspired by a Facebook post that sparked a debate on whether the struggles of raising children and maintaining a marriage are worth it. The Dennings explore the idea that, far from being reasons to quit, these challenges are paths to personal growth, fulfillment, and a more rewarding, meaningful (even if sometimes unhappy), life.They also challenge the modern trend of avoiding discomfort for the sake of comfort and convenience, instead suggesting that leaning into the struggles—whether it's raising kids or nurturing a relationship—is what leads to lasting satisfaction. In fact, just like any skill, marriage, and parenting require knowledge, practice, and the right tools to truly thrive.Not everyone should necessarily pursue marriage or parenthood, but if you choose that path, it’s important to do it well. Developing the skills needed to navigate the challenges of family life is essential for creating a fulfilling and meaningful experience.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the chaos of family life, or if you’re on the fence about whether marriage and family are right for you, this episode offers insights and encouragement to help you not just survive but thrive. And if you're ready to develop those skills, we can help you with the tools you need to create the Extraordinary Family Life of your dreams.RESOURCES:Let us help you in your extraordinary family life journey.JOIN GREG'S 90-DAY HEALTH & FITNESS CHALLENGE!
