Every couple goes through seasons of closeness and seasons that feel… dry. But what happens when a “dry spell” stretches on longer than you ever expected?

In this deeply personal episode of the HN Couples Podcast, Benjy Uyama opens up about the hardest season of his marriage: eight long years marked by shame, frustration, and constant fighting. He shares what finally broke the cycle—not a quick fix, but a radical shift in perspective:

- Struggle isn’t failure—it’s an invitation to love harder. - 


You’ll hear:

  • The unspoken realities of long dry spells and how they affect both partners

  • Why acceptance and taking responsibility for your own growth changes everything

  • How a simple but bold change of priorities can restore connection and intimacy

If you’ve ever felt stuck, misunderstood, or afraid that things might never change, this episode will give you hope and practical tools to start moving forward—together.
