Welcome back to Relationship Reset — the podcast for high-achieving couples who want more than just surviving in their relationship. In this week's Dear Katie episode, we're digging into a listener question that hits home for so many long-term couples:

"We’ve been together 25+ years and love each other deeply… but with aging parents, teens, and busy jobs, our communication has turned into task lists. How do we get back to real, honest connection without everything turning into a fight?"

Whew. If you're nodding your head or exhaling deeply right now, you're in good company.

This episode is all about rebuilding your communication by first rebuilding your friendship. Before we fix how we argue, we have to go back to how we connect. I’ll walk you through:

💬 What’s actually making communication feel hard right now (hint: it’s not just your partner)
👫 The power of rebuilding your friendship — especially in this middle-of-life sandwich season
⏳ Why even 10 minutes a day can shift everything
🌿 Simple “us time” that doesn’t require a babysitter or a weekend away
💌 How appreciation and gratitude are the underrated superpowers of long-term connection

If you’ve been feeling more like co-managers of a household than partners in life, this episode is a gentle nudge back toward the connection you know is possible — even in the chaos.

💡 And if this sounds like you and your partner, book a free Relationship Game Plan Call with me. We’ll pinpoint exactly where the breakdowns are happening and map out the first steps to reset and rebuild.
