About Tammy Hill:

Tammy Hill is passionate about strengthening marriage relationships. She is a Licensed
Marriage and Family Therapist and an active member of the American Association of Sexual
Educators, Counselors and Therapists (ASSECT). Tammy enjoys being an adjunct faculty
member at Brigham Young University in the School of Family Life where she teaches hundreds
of students each semester in Marriage Preparation, Marriage Enhancement and Healthy
Sexuality in Marriage courses. Tammy owns a private counseling practice where she largely
works with couples. She has free resources available on her website
(http://www.tammyhill.com) where she also offers numerous Making Love Retreats,
Honeymoon Workshops and Dating Bootcamps each year. Published in 2021, Tammy’s first
book, “God Made Girls and Boys” is a beautiful children’s book addressing agency, gender,
accountability, and hope in our Heavenly Parent’s eternal plan. Her second book, “Replenish:
Creating Sexual Fulfillment in Marriage”, was published earlier this year. Most importantly
Tammy is forever grateful to be a wife, mother and grandmother.

Insights:

Tammy: Humans are created with a capacity to have amazing sexual pleasure. Push yourself to
learn how to replenish each other.

Dave: Make time to intentionally have sex with your partner.

Liz: Monogamous does not have to mean monotonous.

Invites:

• Instead of waiting for your partner to change, recognize the part you play in
  conflict and seek to change it without any guarantee that your partner will do the
  same. You may find that your partner’s response to your change is exactly what you
  hoped.
• Examine whether there is contempt in your relationship. If you “horibilize” your
  partner by objectifying them and only seeing their faults and their weaknesses, you
  might be guilty of contempt.
• As yourself, “ If I were to give my whole heart to my partner, what would it occur
  to me to do?”. Be still and then heed that inner call to connect

It's often said that marriage takes work. The Stronger Marriage Connection podcast wants to help because a happy marriage is worth the effort. USU Family Life Professor Dr. Dave Schramm and Clinical Psychologist Dr. Liz Hale talk with experts about the principles and practices that will enhance your commitment, compassion, and emotional connection. 

More than ever before, marriages face obstacles, from the busyness of work and daily hassles to disagreements and digital distractions. It's no wonder couples sometimes drift apart, growing resentful, lonely, and isolated.
