Partners have different needs, different expectations, and different backgrounds. Therefore, it doesn't take long before relationships get turned around and headed in the wrong direction. When relationships struggle, intimacy stops. And when intimacy stops, couples feel even more disconnected, creating a vicious cycle. The Dr. Wyatt Marriage Podcast can help turn your relationship around. Each episode is full of insights, tips, and encouragement to grow your relationship.

Compatibility is often romanticized as the cornerstone of successful relationships, but it's frequently overrated. While having shared interests or similar personalities can make things easier, true connection thrives on effort, communication, and mutual growth—not just matching traits. Obsessing over compatibility can lead people to dismiss potentially great relationships just because someone doesn’t fit a checklist. In reality, no two people are perfectly aligned. Disagreements, differences, and challenges are inevitable. What matters more is how partners navigate those moments, not whether they see eye-to-eye on every issue. Growth often comes from contrast, not similarity. Compatibility might get people through the good times, but commitment, empathy, and adaptability carry them through the hard ones. Relying too heavily on the idea of compatibility can be a convenient way to avoid doing the work that real relationships demand. It’s not about finding the “right” person, but building something real with someone willing.
