How often do you tell yourself, or hear from your spouse the phrase "I will try harder" and things never seem to get better? Things don't get better just by trying... you have to have a game plan and start doing. In this very impactful episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast , we interview Nate Whitson where he reveals how to finally stop "trying" and actually start "doing" when it comes to breaking bad habits in your marriage, or in your personal life. He share the 4 things you can start doing that actually work! 1. Make Bad Habits Invisible Nate breaks down how reshaping your environment weakens temptation instantly.
