Leaving and Cleaving: How to Protect your Marriage from Excessive Parental Influence | S3 E19

Is your marriage too crowded? 

If you had to pause to think about that, you may be dealing with excessive influence from well-meaning but over-involved parents. 

In this refreshingly honest episode, Steve and Mary Alessi share their experiences and wisdom in 30+ years of marriage, and explain how they navigated leaving the protection and covering of their parents in order to build a new legacy. They open up about their new season of being the parents of married children and learning how to give them space to establish their own homes, and provide a template for young and experienced couples to truly embrace their marriages as their primary focus.
