#RelationshipGoals: 6 Milestones You & Your Wife Should Strive For In 2017

Someone once said that the reasons why weddings seem to go off without a hitch while so many marriages fail is because people go to great lengths to plan and prepare for their wedding day. Meanwhile, their marriage? Not so much.

We thought about that in reference to New Year’s Resolutions. If you ask a group of people to run down the list of what theirs are, it’s pretty common to hear things like lose weight or start a business. But what about relationship resolutions? Aren’t they just as, if not more, important to your health and professional aspirations?

If you’re married, take your wife out for dinner (she’ll love that!) and ask her what resolutions she’d like to make going into this coming new year. If you want to provide her with a little inspiration, we’ve got a few ideas.

About Shellie Reneé

Just a woman who digs all things relationships. HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, that is. I've been writing (professionally) for close to 20 years, including having two books published. I'm also a marriage life coach and doula. Sometimes I speak to large audiences or do radio interviews, but usually I'm sitting in my favorite chair, surfin' the 'net and penning stuff that I wish I had read in my early 20s.

Listen, I don't have all the answers, not by a LOOOOONG shot. But whatever I can do to spare folks any heartbreak, bitterness or straight-up drama, I'll devote some keystrokes to doing. 

That's it...in a nutshell. For the most part. Kinda. ;)
