About this episode

Brandon and Caitlyn discuss how to protect children during a marriage crisis and provide practical guidance for age-appropriate conversations.

This week on the Grounded Union Podcast , Brandon and Caitlyn speak on one of the most requested topics from their community: what do we tell the kids? They challenge every excuse for waiting to heal, issue a clear warning against the enmeshment trap (your kids are not your counselor or your comfort), and give practical guidance on age-appropriate conversations from toddlers to adult children. The episode closes with the family rhythms Brandon and Caitlyn still live by today: no screens, outside as much as possible, nightly family walks, and gathering around a fire — because protecting your kids from a marriage crisis starts with bringing your whole family back to life.
