    3. 💰 Budgeting and Money

    What does your money situation look like going into this new year?

    ∙ How can you repeat some of those successes in 2023?

    ∙ What would you like to do together is this new year?

    ∙ Are there any big life changes happening in your family (kids graduating, moving to another city, etc.?)

    5. 👴 Extended family boundaries

    How is your relationship with your parents and in-laws?

    🔸 When you get married, your role changes - but your extended family usually doesn't think about that...and its easy to fall back into old unhealthy patterns, if you aren't intentional.

    ∙ Did you and your spouse have healthy boundaries with extended family in 2022?

    ∙ Did your extended family (relatives) take you away from focusing on your family and marriage?

    ∙ Talk about being a Spouse first, a parent second and a "child" third...

    ∙ Do you need to spend more time with parents who are getting older? Have you negotiated your time, energy, affection, and attention with your spouse around these needs?
