Stay madly in love while raising kids | Ellen Fisher Podcast
That fire-filled love you had when you first sparked up a relationship does not have to disappear over time, and especially doesn’t have to end once you have kids. Sometimes relationships can be put on the back burner when kids, jobs, and household becomes overwhelming. But with the right tools and mindset, you can restore your relationship and experience both unconditional love and hot steamy fire love too.
Don’t go pointing the finger and wait for your partner to change first. With your unconditional love and direction you can rally a shift within both of you.
This episode covers:
- Restoring your relationship when you’re in a rut
- Bringing back the fire and steamy feelings for each other
- How to show your partner love in the way they receive it best, and receive love back to way you want too
- Navigating different ideologies on how to raise your kids
- Co-parenting harmoniously
- Handling arguments/disagreements in front of your kids
- Sex life: make it amazing and fiery
- Having each other’s back while parenting your kids
- The 5 Love languages
- How every experience with your partner either adds love to or takes away from your partner’s “love bank”
- Long lasting unconditional love is the answer

For the 5 love languages, I remember them as The Five T's. Time, talk, touch, tasks (acts of service), & treasures (gifts and notes) Change will come even if only one person makes change. Don't wait for anyone to reciprocate. Just start.
I love the love language book, another spin that has been CRAZY beneficial to my husband and I is, become bilingual in the love languages. My husband is words and I am acts. I had to teach myself to notice when he was complimenting me and being sweet verbally to me so that I was not only giving his language more often, but also receiving his primary language more often. I still don’t care much about other people’s words, but now when my husband compliments me it makes me a little more fuzzy and lovey than before
Amazing episode! I watched it with my husband and it was a beautiful time together, we had deep conversations after and it definitely connected us even more.
While having self awareness when raising kids is important, it has also become scary too. Everything kittle thing nowadays, an arguement, the wrong word etc..could cause trauma or behavioural issues. I am 42, and my mum talks to me about how different parenting was back then.
A good topic is when one partner wants to be intimate and the other does not. This is a regular part of being married. You know what my friends have discussed, sleeping in a bed with someone who snores, or moves, or wakes up earlier than you and wakes you up. This stuff is not in the romance movies...lol
We don't have kids and we're not even married but we live together now and even if we're really happy about sharing our lives almost 24/7 we're starting to understand the "life as couple", the dynamics, the importance of knowing how to argue or discuss in a healthy way, respecting our times alone, showig love in the other's language, reaching agreements, etc etc. It's so complex but beautiful at the same time ! I'm happy for this kind of podcasts-videos. Thank you Ellen !
The fact that your hubby seems allergic to shirts has to help. 😜😂

Everything you're saying sounds like Marriage Fitness with Mort Fertel! He always talks about how to save your marriage when your spouse isn't on board/returning the love. Such a great video, thank you!
I love that you covered all types of partners and addressed realistic situations such as "partner doesn't like reading".
This was really "Rich Roll" podcast style, and I mean that as the biggest compliment! 👌🏽 Congratulations Ellen, this is definitely media that suits you! 💙
This resonate soooo much with me and my partner right now....we have 4 kids in your age and its a huge challenge every day to deal with everything that need to be done and in the same time keep the love alive, we are struggling with that right now. I feel he need to show me more love but in the same time I know I need to show HIM love aswell, Know that I maybe need to be te first one to take the first step, take away the ego and its get easier...thank you for a great podcast and keep going strong! Love from a swedish in uruguay!
Ellen! Thank you for this. I so agree with letting your children see how we resolve conflicts. It's so important for them to develop coping mechanisms & for them to know compassion as they get older since it's so inherent when they are young.
Wise words, Ellen. Thank you xx
Im not a podcast person but I love all of your videos talking about different things so I’m obsessed with the podcast ❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much!
Thanks for this episode! I've looked up to you ever since I started following you back when Sandy was a little baby. I didn't want children, partly because I thought I wouldn't be a great mom... and I was always impressed by your calm presence and positivity. Well, I have a 10 month old now, surprise pregnancy, and she's the best thing that ever happened to me. Even though being a parent is far from easy, I love it and find myself very naturally gravitating towards positive parenting. I fully agree that disagreeing in front of the child and saying I'm sorry and showing kindness is so important to teach them how to interact with other people! 💕
I was so excited to see you launch your podcast. Absolutely loving it! 6mins in - such good reminders! Thank you for all your efforts 💕
I think I needed this right now. Thank you very much, I will try to apply your advices. Just told my husband I listened to this podcast, he seemed genuinely suprised and we already connected by speaking about what we both need... :)
I have been following you for years now, bought the cookbooks and I have to say this is by far the most helpful to me. Thanks!! Looking forward to your next episodes.
This is great! As a mom of 3 kids 4 and under this is definitely a topic I needed to hear about and am passionate about!!
This video has made me see you in a different light. This was amazing. Thanks for this video 💗
Thank you for this Ellen
I love your podcast so much! I’m pregnant at the moment and I find it SO helpful. Thank you so much 💗💗
I just adore you, Ellen! Thank you for putting your heart out there ❤️❤️
I loved it!!!! Thank you so much for this! Is good to have advice for people who have been in relationships for longer! 💚💚
Love this so much! Congrats on your new podcast Ellen :)!
Such great reminders! Thank you for this episode!
Listened to this it was lovely and reminded me of all things great. Small, mindful ways to reconnect are vital. I’m not a podcast person but I totally listened to this one (because I adore you) on a long drive yesterday and it was perfect listening. Thank you x
Ellen Thank you so much for this podcast! Totally packed with an amazing thoughts and soooooooo helpful! Definitely I’m going to implement many things you mentioned in my daily life ❤️ And I will make sure my husband listens to it too 🌸
The way the world is now it’s sad that people need help and counseling just for simple things in life like what you talk about with making the little things be little things instead of blaming and shaming. So many people take people for granted now a days and it’s so sad. I am so grateful to have found your channel 6 years ago. You are such an inspiration and such a great role model and I hope I can be the same kind of mother to my children and spouse to my partner.
Thanks for the episode invested! You added a lot of deeper knowledge and understanding to me, just fun to listen to!
This was a wake up call that I needed. Thankyou Ellen 🙏🏼
Great episode, thanks Ellen!
I loved this Ellen!! Amazing ❤️ definately wonna watch the next episodes
Ellen, Thank you. Thank you so much for your wisdom and being so generous enough to share it 💜. Much love.
Yes, kids do what they see the adults do and they see how you handle conflict.
Love this! Thank you for sharing.
Great podcast episode this is the first one I’ve been able to listen to and I am so happy I did !
Such great job, Ellen! You are so natural at this, and I so much enjoyed this. Thanks :)
Such an amazing podcast! I am beginning to look up to you, and you are such an inspiration to me. I can't wait for future podcasts! I am a Podcast girl :) Great work Ellen!
Really enjoying your podcast. There are not many that I will listen to all the way through, but I have been with yours. Keep up the great work.
Thank you. It s a pleasure listening to you. I like the way you talk "real life". It resonate in me. Thank you!!!!
Thank you Ellen. This podcast was/is exactly what I need(ed).
Brilliant, such help thank you

This definitely got me thinking about my family relationships. Good episode
Love these podcasts ellen!
Such valuable advice. My favourite podcast episode yet ❤️
And don’t forget, our kids have love languages too!
So much wisdom!!! 🙌
Amazing! This is so helpful! Ty
This is my faaaaavourite episode so far❤️🔥 Thank you so much!!! Она такая лапочка, я обожаю✨🧊✨🧊✨🧊
"Robert Smith is our love language." Me to my partner last week. She agreed.
Wow just wow. This was amazing! Thank you!! Can’t wait to implement this into our relationship. 💕🔥
this is so good! thankyou!
Thank u ellen, just what I needed❤️
Very helpful video. Thank you ❤️
Thanks for this episode 🙏 is a relief to know other woman experience this too 🙏
Awesome video. I don’t agree with all of your views, but I agree with everything you’ve said about mothering and relationships. Great job Ellen!
Great information! Thanks
Thank you for your sharing
What an amazing topic!! 👍✌️ We need to talk about these things, heal the world... there are many more topics that are not touched by most... Connection is key to learning the possibilities of life .. learning and unlearning
Such an interesting topic. Always good to hear other people's thoughts om this. And great tips👍 Especially that one with the love coins - it's so simple, but it was a great visual for me. Which I think is gonna make it more likely to pop up in my mind in every day life. Keep up the good work 👌😊
Ellen- you’ve been spot on this entire podcast! Kudos to you for wonderful, sound advice
Good podcast thanks 🙏🏽
Thank you Very true
Beautiful 🤩 thank you
Your partner can also be they :) Helpful info, thank you for sharing!
I llsten to you on iTunes but i must say this is a fantastic topic you dealt with humanity. Thanks for that
What if after showing your partner love and being always the first, it never comes back? Or at least not at the amplitude that you are showing it?
All of this! ❤
Im single and 20 watching this hehehehe. Loved it and will be back to watch in the future :)
Loved this 💁🏻♀️💚🤘🏻
My partner's main love language is physical touch which is not so high up in my list so I really try to remember to give him hugs and hold hands. Also I just gave him (in my opinion) the best birthday present which was massage oil with massage tokens from me so that he can use them when he wants a massage from me :)
Are you going to do episodes about positive parenting? I would love to know more about raising your kids!
Wow.this is a nice podcast
Ugh!! My 8 month old refuses to sleep unless he is on me. I’ve tried everything. Short of cry it out (which I won’t/can’t) do….. I know this is just a phase but holy moly! How do you have intimate connection like that. We don’t live near much family and are new to the area so not many friends yet
I gotta know the word that wasn’t for the podcast about how your friend looked! Haha too spicy?? Eat move rest is someone who I would love to see you interview!

The word is wellf***ed, lol that is what Kim calls it. I checked her out and she was not to my taste but whatever floats your boat is fine w me.
Another thing with finding time to be intimate as a mom is feeling touched out and not in the mood for more touching after a day of “momming.” Hard to separate the two some days.
Single mama here. Parenting is tough in general no matter your situation.
Amazing💡
Perfect words ✨🙏💫🌱💚🕊️🌴
Hiya, hope you're well? Just wondering what is the marriage course you did? I'm interested in doing one. Also could you suggest any course etc for self discovery? I know you did a big bundle last year, of heaps of things, of courses, wondering would you do that bundle again? Thanks
You did such a great job, Ellen!!! So authentic and lovely. You flow'd super well
I would love more about the conversation. I find myself and many of my friends struggle with having a partner that isn’t that involved with childcare and helping around the house. How to approach this with a partner and not feel resentful toward them for taking the lions share of “me time” for themselves?

Please look up the term "weaponized incompetence" if you don't know it already. It's an unfortunately common tactic many partners adopt (often subconsciously) to put the emotional and physical labor of a house and children on the other partner instead. It's a lesson reason for divorces. It IS fixable of the manipulation is made apparent and the person ends the behavior.
Tried and true lol
You have discovered the warm water.
Right I understand about being respectful, but if what is happening to your children is abusive…. How do you just stand there?

My husband struggles with PTSD and other trauma he is working through. So he is trying, but also there are moments where I see real lasting damage happening… do I just stand there? Idk how to do that
You have such amazing skin what is your facial routine? You literally have no wrinkles is this due to your diet? I have recently become vegan thanks to you and your videos and I can honestly say I’m just feeling so much better so thank you for making such quality content🙏
How do you spell “kimonami”? Haha the girl who talks about sex. Trying to find her KZread page!
