About this episode
Is Your Marriage Built to Last—or Just Built to Make You Happy?
Nearly half of all marriages end in divorce, but yours doesn’t have to.
In this powerful episode of The Dr. Josh Axe Show, Dr. Axe sits down with bestselling authors and marriage advocates Gabe and Rebekah Lyons to unpack what makes a marriage truly thrive. Drawing from 28 years together and their new book The Fight for Us, they share real talk on conflict, connection, covenant, and how your relationship impacts your physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
In this episode, you'll learn:
The 4 most common conflict patterns—and how to break them
How emotional tone triggers stress, inflammation, and disconnection
Why cohabitation before marriage may be sabotaging your future
The real reason Christian marriages are meant to reflect covenant, not contract
How to reignite intimacy, purpose, and peace—starting this week
If you’re ready for honest, biblical, and science-backed wisdom to strengthen your marriage, this conversation will change the way you think about love and commitment.
Watch now and walk away with tools to build a marriage that lasts—and heals.
