Hey friend,

You know I’m all about practical tools that help you stay connected to what matters most — your family, your marriage, your purpose.

But let’s be real… even with the best systems in place, there are days when you feel disconnected.
Maybe it’s stress.
Maybe it’s exhaustion.
Maybe it’s just life being life.

That’s why I’m so excited to share this free resource from my friends at Connection Codes.

It’s called the Core Emotion Guide — and it’s a total game-changer for your relationships. (This is a tool Mike and I discovered and use to support our relationship growth too!)

This isn’t another “just communicate better” thing. It’s a simple, science-backed tool that helps you know what’s happening inside of you and say it in a way that invites connection instead of conflict.

Because here’s the truth:​
When you can name what’s going on inside (without blaming, fixing, or shutting down)… your people can meet you there. That’s where connection happens.

Whether you’re navigating marriage, motherhood, or just the chaos of a full life — this guide will help you:

✅ Recognize what’s really going on beneath frustration or overwhelm
✅ Communicate with clarity and compassion (even when emotions run high)
✅ Stay connected with your partner and kids through the messiest moments

It takes less than 4 minutes a day — but it’s the kind of small, consistent habit that changes everything.

Your home doesn’t have to be perfect. Your connection doesn’t have to be surface-level.

This is how you build a family culture of safety, trust, and love — one real conversation at a time.

Rooting for you,

Chels
