Husbands: 💪 1. Give her a real break. Take the kids for 2–3 hours so she can rest, nap, or do something she loves without pressure. 2. Plan a surprise mini-date. It could be coffee + a walk. Show her you thought ahead. 3. Speak life over her. Tell her 3 specific things she’s doing well this week (motherhood, work, marriage). 4. Hold her without rushing. A long, slow 20–30 second hug lowers stress and increases connection. 5. Clean something without being asked. Dishes, laundry, car — small acts communicate huge love. Wives: 👰 1. Show appreciation for his effort. Tell him one thing he does that makes you feel safe, loved, or supported. 2. Initiate physical connection. A back rub, cuddling, kissing first — small intimacy builds big closeness. 3. Ask about his world. “What’s something you’re excited about or stressed about this week?” 4. Affirm his strengths. Men thrive on being reminded they have what it takes. 5. Create a peaceful moment together. Sit outside, watch a show, or go on a walk — no phones, no pressure.
