Rock Your Reinvention: Tips For High-Achieving Women Who Want to Successfully Exit Their Six-Figure Corporate Career

84: How to Have a Happy Marriage While Working Full-Time

Karin Freeland Episode 84

Are you thriving in your career but silently struggling at home? You’re not alone—and it doesn’t have to be that way. In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Marriage Mentor Kim Kendall De Silva, who helps busy moms rekindle the love, fun, and connection in their relationships—without sacrificing professional success.

Kim knows firsthand how easy it is for high-achieving women to slip into survival mode—barking orders, resenting their partner’s downtime, and losing the playfulness that once defined their relationship. But she also knows the way out. In this honest, actionable conversation, she’s sharing how to spot the warning signs, shift your energy, and revive your marriage… before it’s too late.

🔥 In this episode, we cover:

  • The defining moment that transformed Kim’s own marriage
  • Signs you might need a Relationship Mentor (especially if you’re googling “why am I unhappy in my marriage?”)
  • 3 simple habits to revive intimacy and restore connection (even when things feel distant)
  • Why your boardroom tone doesn’t belong in your bedroom (and what to do about it)
  • Shifting from masculine to feminine energy—and one easy way to make that mindset switch
  • The surprising power of authentic gratitude and how it can change your entire dynamic
  • Why fun and play aren’t just “nice to have”—they’re essential to a happy marriage

👉 Listen to the end for a special challenge that could instantly shift your relationship this week! 😉

💡 Your success at work shouldn’t cost you the connection at home. With the right mindset shifts and a little intentional effort, you can thrive in both your career and your marriage.
