Navigating Life Transitions Without Losing Your Marriage or Faith
What do you do when life suddenly changes?
Whether it’s marriage, parenting, entrepreneurship, career changes, or becoming empty nesters, transitions can put enormous pressure on your faith, family, and relationships. In this episode of the SideBySide Business Podcast, we open up about some of the biggest transitions we’ve faced as a Christian entrepreneurial couple — including a recent major career change after 13 years of full-time business ownership.
We talk about:
* Why transition seasons are some of the most stressful times in life
* How marriage changes after kids
* The dangers of child-centered homes
* Empty nesting and reconnecting as a couple
* Entrepreneurship, identity shifts, and career transitions
* Practical biblical wisdom for staying united through change
* How to hold onto each other instead of drifting apart
If you’re building a business while trying to lead your family well, this conversation is for you.

Storms have a way of showing up without warning. They shake our confidence, test our faith, and leave us wondering what we’re supposed to do next.
In this video, we share an encouragement for anyone who is in the middle of a difficult season right now. With honesty, openness, and faith, we talk about the importance of crying out to God, calling on Him in the middle of the storm, and then trusting Him enough to watch what He does.
If you’re in a season where:
* Life feels heavy or uncertain
* You’re facing trials you didn’t expect
* You’re trying to hold things together but feel overwhelmed
* You’re wondering where God is in all of this
This message is for you.
We believe that when you call out to the Lord—right where you are—He meets you there. You don’t have to have all the answers or a perfect plan. Sometimes the most faithful step is simply to cry out to Him and trust that He is working, even when you can’t yet see it.
Our hope is that this video brings encouragement, hope, and reassurance that you are not alone in the storm—and that what God does next can be far more amazing than you expect.
💬 If you’re walking through a tough season, feel free to share in the comments. You’re not alone, and we’d love to pray for and encourage you.

How to Stay Connected in Tough Times
Need help staying connected in tough times?Schedule a free SideBySide Strategy Session with Larry and Sue. We’ll help you identify practical next steps to strengthen your marriage while navigating business, work, and life transitions—together.

Tough times have a way of pulling couples apart—especially when stress, uncertainty, and pressure start stacking up.
In this video, we share how we’re choosing to stay connected in a challenging season by approaching the problem together, instead of letting it divide us. Rather than seeing difficulty as his issue or her issue, we’re learning to treat it as something outside of us that we face side by side.
We talk about:
* Why unity matters most when circumstances are uncertain
* How shifting your mindset can reduce blame and tension
* What it looks like to trust the Lord while still taking practical action
* Why working together changes how tough seasons feel
This isn’t about pretending things are easy or having everything figured out. It’s about choosing connection, faith, and teamwork when the path forward isn’t clear yet.
If you and your spouse are:
* Walking through a hard or confusing season
* Building a business or navigating financial pressure
* Trying to stay united instead of drifting apart
Our hope is that this conversation encourages you to stop carrying the weight alone and start facing it together.
💬 If you have questions or want us to talk about a specific challenge you’re facing, leave a comment. We read every one and often create future videos based on what you share.
