Marriage is like SWOT analysis..... build on each others strengths and find out how they can complement each other...be ready to see weaknesses in each other and find best approach to counteract them for better.Oppoturnies around you with give u ideas on great developments that will keep each other busy in finding ways to utilize them best. What are the threats in marriage and what are these strategies that can be put together to block them from creating distraction in marriage. @Marina you guys are such a great couple.
You guys are what is called "intentional married couple". You were willing to communicate and acknowledge your differences and difficulties. Many marriages break up because of similar things. That accountability partner in every marriage is very important, someone who you trust to open up to. Well done guys for your sincere sit-down conversation 👏👍Always looking forward to your videos on Sundays.
Felt like I jst walked out of therapy session. This is so therapeutic, I believe every married couple can relate. Thank you so so much for sharing these tools, It's on us to do the work now. Thank you
20th of August is also my wedding anniversary and we would be clocking 16yrs. Wish you all the best. Love you both and thanks to you both with the sincerity
Watching this video was very special to me🤗 Looking back at ours 15years now, I just knew it wasn't a function of how long together ,but how much we've both sacrificed to arrive here. Marina and Fred Eteng, thank you guys so much 🙏 You just hit it significantly in the area that applied most, hmmmm 'CHALLENGES IN MARRAIGE ARE NOT NECESSARILY TERRITORIAL. You are with that same person, and the same person is with you. Change won't occur cause you changed location, so whether you both migrate to Jupiter or Mars, its not the case. The real change occurs, when you both realise the problem, willing to do something about it and deliberately work at it. Once again, thank you Sir and Madam, I've learnt so many things in just this less than 35mins video. Pls let this series kwantinue ,we need more😊 thank you Mr Eteng for your availability to do this. And Marina , one love ❤
This is type of truthful content young folks need to watch as they catch unto the Japa trend & find a better future for themselves abroad. I also wished y’all touched a bit on the society norms on Canada, & how husband & wife roles change the moment you crossover from Nigeria, & sometimes how things begin to get worse when the Nigerian wife adopts some retrogressive ideologies like the feminist one, & still expects her husband to keep meeting all her needs as he used to do in Nigeria before they moved over & before she took on this borrowed ideology.
Your video is very real. I totally agree with you, Marina. I am not married, but I have lived with married couples and I can relate with everything you are saying. Thanks for this video.
Thanks so much dear for sharing 👍 this is so educative nobody is perfect. both men and women need to talk about their differences no one is a mind reader. kudos to u and Ur husband because not all men can sit down and talk about their struggles .
I so enjoy this video... especially how Mr Fred said "we always look to the other person to change and we don't think we have a responsibility to the problem..." marriage is 100% of what each other put in..and absolutely putting God in the centre.
After almost 2 years, I had to return and watch this again. Now, having moved to Canada 2 months ago, it's all relatable. Thank you so much for sharing. Has really made me handle same scenarios a whole lot better. The place of Communication cannot be over emphasized.
Every marriage is a work in progress. There's definitely no such thing as a perfect marriage. But the major thing is for both parties to want to make it work, identify the challenges and be deliberate about tackling it and seeking for solutions. Thanks for this video and happy anniversary in advance.
Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your journey with us. My takeaway is to communicate how I feel and what I want freely vs just shutting down and expecting my husband to know whats wrong.
Marina that is me😂😂😂 when I am angry I also shut down but trying to change this. My poor husband has been understanding over the years but I now see how it helps when I vocalise my frustration 💯. Love this talk yet again!
Weldone Marina and Hubby. You are such a friendly and relatable lady. I recall whilst I was trying to emigrate to Canada, you patiently answered all my questions relating to moving as a banker. God bless you and all you do.
This is such a wonderful video. I can only imagine how difficult it is to put details of your life out there. But I assure you it's worth it. Because your stories are helping so many people in so many ways. My spouse and I moved to Canada last year, and we've had to deal with so much of what you have talked about. Just like you, we also decided to get better. We will be ten years 4th August 😊. It's quite comforting to know that we are not alone , and your story just gives hope. Thanks to you and Mr Eteng. Happy birthday!
See ehn, Marina, there is so much wisdom in this video. Thank you for being so vulnerable, so open. Thank you for sharing your journey, struggles and beauty of your relationship. I wish you both the best. May you thrive. This is to 20, 30...and many more years of love together. ❤
Very helpful,, its true about venting to the right people. You can not fix everything alone... Acknowledging you are wrong is one step forward. Thanks Marina
I watched and was meditating on a lot you guys said that I forgot to comment. I honestly like that you are intentional about your marriage and strategic towards making it work.
Hmmmm the learnings in this video needs biro and jotter. The sad reality of how Nigeria can put a strain on marriages because of the lack of basic amenities breaks my heart. The part where you said he's allergic to peace lol. I am so glad you both chose to get help. Getting help is under rated. God bless you both.
I just discovered your Channel a couple of days ago and I am loving watching you and your husband. I am not one to subscribe to TH-cam channels, but I have to support what you do. You both are extremely emotionally intelligent and it's amazing to listen to you educate others on such essential habits, that can benefit those who adapt them. If I were in Canada, I'd link up with you, you'd make a good friend 😂. Keep up the good work!
Beautiful you and hubby 😊. My marriage clocked 10 years last year by God's grace and I totally agree with your deliberations, it takes your personal effort to take your marriage from where it is to where you desire it to be. It's easier when both parties desire postive end points. Congratulations 🥳🎊🍾 in advance and beautiful years ahead to both of you in Jesus'name. I look forward to meeting you soonest.
Loved this video Sis. It’s so nice that you both put up the process that led to the beautiful marriage we see today so we all know that a beautiful marriage is work and commitment on both parts. Bless your home sis and bless you both for sharing sis
I understand the part of emotional stress from having two children in a row.... it's not easy. I too experienced it...I gave birth January 2019 & July 2020
Thank you both for sharing this. It takes a lot of vulnerability to share your marital progress/challenge story. I wish you both the best in your union ❤
Amazing !!! I look forward to my 10th anniversary in SK too. On a side note, You should watch @Marina Esiri's videos at a playback speed of 1.5x and watch her laugh. You will see how contagious it is. 😁😁😁
One of the major reasons Iwant to RUN AWAY with my husband and Kids to Canada.... I want to own and know my home. Outsiders are too many. Am e en lost in my own house. My husband and I have some disconnect, and I want it fixed. I want to build my children myself. Kai, God help Us!!! It will work in Jesus Name, Amen.
Love your blouse!! Pink suits you. As always I enjoyed the video. In my language the word "marriage" translated into English is "long journey" I have been married for 10 years and trust me the journey has been a long roller-coaster ride lol. Thanks for sharing your journey, now the next journey to 15K+ subbies ❤️
Good video. Lots of lessons I learnt . I will like to see you do a throw back of your wedding as the 10th anniversary celebration. Happy wedding anniversary in advance. The lord will uphold your home till the end.
Lovely content...you two are very natural and honest with each other and it will go a long way for u. Marina, we both share a lot in reacting to issues. I can relate with the wall building and withdrawal. I am also working on that by God's grace. Thanks for sharing these confidential tips to make some relationships better...love you guys
I am glad to hear you are working on it. I find that these days, it is easier for me to express how i feel rather than bottle it up. You are welcome anytime
This is why i say you remind me of me. I hope i get to meet you someday. Anytime i watcb your videos, am confident and encouraged that my life would definitely be better. Can you be my career coach once am ready to wake it up again? My main love language is quality time from my spouse and He still doesnt get it ooo. Similarities everywhere. You may not understand. Well done with what you do. Thumbs up. Very natural and down to earth.👍👍
Daniel starts unlearning to relearn. Guys, I recommend Marina and Fred as Marriage Counsellors in the name of the Father the Son, and the Holy Ghost. I think I can listen to them.
Smiles ☺, Day Esthy you're such a great spiritual leader. Thank you for adding our dear Trinity. I have actually learnt a lot from them, from a previous episode, but this one was spot on.
This is a wonderful video, I just saw your channel via this video. I love your sincerity, intentionality and goal that you both see together. This is a marriage advice video in general as it is not just a location thing, I must really commend you both for really being intentional about this must work. I just subscribed... Watching from Abuja, Nigeria. Happy Birthday and Happy Wedding Anniversary to you both in Advance 💃💃💃💃
Oh Marina!!!! this video just showed me that I behave a lot like you used to. that stone walling has my name all over it!!!😣 I love love love you guys😚😚😚
Great video! We're approaching our 1st anniversary in September so we were definitely interested in this video and I'm also your birthday twin lol (August 20). Wish you guys all the best!
Awesome video!!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Thank you for sharing. You both are doing amazingly well and it's good to know that it was work that brought you this far not wishes and expectations.... You know what I mean 😊😊😊
Hi Marina. I love you guys and appreciate how you have been making a difference in the lives of so many. Your presentations are top notch. You really reach out to a lot of us. I particularly shared this video with my husband and we have watched it many times over. Please Marina, there's something I would beg of you is to respond to emails as quickly as possible. Your response to my mails usually take like forever 😔 specially when I need an urgent response. I just sent another mail to you, so please treat it ASAP. I need your response urgently bcos it's urgent. Once again thank you for your great support to us. God bless you and your family. God bless your husband who is supportive of your course.
Thank you for the kind words. I am glad to hear the videos are helping people. As for the emails, I get an average of about 70 emails per week, sometimes more. I have a full time job, my family with young kids, school and TH-cam to manage. It is not sustainable for me to reply all emails ASAP. I have to work with the pace that I can. I am trying as much as I can and I appreciate your patience. Many thanks
I sha knew this was not a video to rush and I am glad I took my time to watch it! You both are amazing honestly, being able to identify your shortcomings, admitting them and being actionable towards being better is really something I have learnt, and I am sure my husband did too, cos I louded it 🤣🤣🤣 so people are the back could hear. But yeah, every marriage is a work in progress, it is not easy but it can be easy if we put in the effort to make it what we want!
We are looking forward to your birthday and anniversary.. I think the first year are usually the hardest and it takes 100 percent communication and understanding to make it work .. that shut down 😀😀😀 Beautiful video
Hi Marina, am new here, from adaze's space. Just catching up on your videos. I have an idea for your next content pls. Can you elaborate more on the counselling aspect of marriage and the type of tools given. And how a couple can go away to implement them please. Pls Give examples. Would definitely love to hear your husband perspective as well. Although am single, but I feel like we Nigerians (or Africans) do not understand what counselling does or know what it entails. Therefore, would love to learn. If you want to help us singles out with other topics, pls do. I will be more than glad to learn please. Thanks.
Hi Sarah, thank you very much and welcome. The tools are mainly customized to the specific issues the couple is experiencing. It will be hard to share that without getting too personal and that will be an overreach at the moment. If you have specific questions, I will be glad to answer them. You can email me at Marina.esiri@gmail.com
@@MARINAESIRI sure, I definitely understand. I don't want your personal business out there. Thanks so much. Your videos have been insightful. Its been interesting learning about Canada. It's somewhat similar to the UK. Have been here with my late mum and siblings since I was 14 years.
Fred & Marina you guys can also be accountablity partners to others too,because you are examples by making it work ie Marriage.Love you guys hope to meet you one day.Always want to watch both of u & not Marina alone.Don't be embrassed Oga Fred,looks and sound like a mature person in and out with his smile and the way he talks.Marina if you guys can look deep into marriage and put in your best make it work& be considerate to each other I think both of you are worth emulating. Do you know some are still struggling with their marriage till now even if they know the tools but to apply is a problem because of Ego.
Nice one sis.....I will like to know from Mr eteng if banking in Nigeria is same as abroad..for someone who has experience of both. Seriously my mental , physical health is not the same ...the stress level is high, I'm practically living for work..4am every day and ATM monitoring on weekends, with lots of meetings and no time to attend children's school activities is making me consider a change of career when I finally join hubby in europe
Halos..it is quite different. For instance, in some there is an external team that handles ATM adminstration/uptime etc BUT you load your cash. In terms of acquiring customers, there is a pool of customers they give you to call and make appointments. However, I guess I was already drained from Nigeria so it wasn't exciting for me anymore
Marriage is like SWOT analysis..... build on each others strengths and find out how they can complement each other...be ready to see weaknesses in each other and find best approach to counteract them for better.Oppoturnies around you with give u ideas on great developments that will keep each other busy in finding ways to utilize them best.
What are the threats in marriage and what are these strategies that can be put together to block them from creating distraction in marriage.
@Marina you guys are such a great couple.
Beautiful comment. Thank you very much❤

Thank you very much, glad to hear that.
You just don't know how much you are helping others to recognize the unhealthy patterns in their own marriage...thank you Marina and Hubby
Glad our learning experience is helping people as well. Thanks a lot!
20th of August is also my wedding anniversary and we would be clocking 16yrs. Wish you all the best. Love you both and thanks to you both with the sincerity

Marina, I must say a big thank you to you for the lemonade finance plug. I've been using it and the experience has been nothing short of amazing🤗

But the major thing is for both parties to want to make it work, identify the challenges and be deliberate about tackling it and seeking for solutions.

"You Shut down like a transformer" I can't get over that. You both are awesome 💖💖 learnt alot
this is beautiful to watch...Nigeria just has a way of affecting your life. i am glad you guys moved and got a good relationship
Many thanks 🙏
Beautiful video, I really enjoyed watching this. For any relationship to work, the people involved must put in the work!! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much big sis🤗🤗
I agree a lot of marriages need professional counselling so they can enjoy their marriage.
Right? I think so too
Weldone Marina and Hubby. You are such a friendly and relatable lady. I recall whilst I was trying to emigrate to Canada, you patiently answered all my questions relating to moving as a banker. God bless you and all you do.

I watched and was meditating on a lot you guys said that I forgot to comment. I honestly like that you are intentional about your marriage and strategic towards making it work.
Thank you very much sis🙏🤗
Such a honest couple love you guys God bless 🙏 continue to grow with each other.
Getting help and what is the right help source and is their a follow up from the helpers? A very fundamental food for thought.
The counsellors we use have a follow up plan. So it depends on where you go and who you are dealing with.
Hmmmm the learnings in this video needs biro and jotter.
The sad reality of how Nigeria can put a strain on marriages because of the lack of basic amenities breaks my heart.
The part where you said he's allergic to peace lol.
I am so glad you both chose to get help. Getting help is under rated. God bless you both.
My sister I dey learn new grammar every day from Marina I get biro and paper near me O.
Thank you very much sis. God has been good to us, cannot even deny.
@DayEsthy Ad, lol. Thank you
Thank you for this video. You have just made me realized that I’m on the right path communicating with my husband. 🙏🏽
That's amazing! All the best!
Hello mama, I'm here from Yemisi's TH-cam channel ❤️
I just discovered your Channel a couple of days ago and I am loving watching you and your husband. I am not one to subscribe to TH-cam channels, but I have to support what you do.

If I were in Canada, I'd link up with you, you'd make a good friend 😂. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much for the kind words and for subscribing.

God, help Us.
One of the major reasons Iwant to RUN AWAY with my husband and Kids to Canada.... I want to own and know my home.
Outsiders are too many.
Am e en lost in my own house.
My husband and I have some disconnect, and I want it fixed.
I want to build my children myself.
Kai, God help Us!!!
It will work in Jesus Name, Amen.
A kiss would have been a perfect conclusion for this video 🙂
Lol, right?
Oga Fred is a shy person. Sis Marina is an outgoing person she no send.
Marina have you heard???😂
🤣🤣🤣
I really love how you guys work together to fix the problem.

Am moved to Europe and my marriage has been hell my husband don’t trust me and is affecting me emotionally because he complained of everything I do
I am so sorry to hear that. I hope you find a way around things. May God restore peace in your marriage.
I sha knew this was not a video to rush and I am glad I took my time to watch it! You both are amazing honestly, being able to identify your shortcomings, admitting them and being actionable towards being better is really something I have learnt, and I am sure my husband did too, cos I louded it 🤣🤣🤣 so people are the back could hear. But yeah, every marriage is a work in progress, it is not easy but it can be easy if we put in the effort to make it what we want!
I couldn't agree more sis. Thank you for much for this valuable comment.
Lol...thank you 🙏
Learnt so much from you guys. Thank you!
You’re so pretty Marina 😍
So I am not fine too? Vexing....lol 😂😂😂😂
Watching you guys was awesome👍
We are looking forward to your birthday and anniversary.. I think the first year are usually the hardest and it takes 100 percent communication and understanding to make it work .. that shut down 😀😀😀

Very interesting video....happy wedding anniversary in advance...and also happy birthday to you in advance

Hi Marina, am new here, from adaze's space. Just catching up on your videos. I have an idea for your next content pls.
Can you elaborate more on the counselling aspect of marriage and the type of tools given. And how a couple can go away to implement them please. Pls Give examples. Would definitely love to hear your husband perspective as well. Although am single, but I feel like we Nigerians (or Africans) do not understand what counselling does or know what it entails. Therefore, would love to learn. If you want to help us singles out with other topics, pls do. I will be more than glad to learn please. Thanks.
Hi Sarah, thank you very much and welcome. The tools are mainly customized to the specific issues the couple is experiencing. It will be hard to share that without getting too personal and that will be an overreach at the moment. If you have specific questions, I will be glad to answer them. You can email me at Marina.esiri@gmail.com
@@MARINAESIRI sure, I definitely understand. I don't want your personal business out there. Thanks so much. Your videos have been insightful. Its been interesting learning about Canada. It's somewhat similar to the UK. Have been here with my late mum and siblings since I was 14 years.
Awesome content...I can relate! Great job guys!
Many thanks

Fred & Marina you guys can also be accountablity partners to others too,because you are examples by making it work ie Marriage.Love you guys hope to meet you one day.Always want to watch both of u & not Marina alone.Don't be embrassed Oga Fred,looks and sound like a mature person in and out with his smile and the way he talks.Marina if you guys can look deep into marriage and put in your best make it work& be considerate to each other I think both of you are worth emulating.
Do you know some are still struggling with their marriage till now even if they know the tools but to apply is a problem because of Ego.

Special shout out from ur roomie, Iyayi hostel days
Hey girlllllll, great to have you here
Wow Same Day as Mine August 20th
Yaaaay, congrats in advance
Nice one sis.....I will like to know from Mr eteng if banking in Nigeria is same as abroad..for someone who has experience of both.
Seriously my mental , physical health is not the same ...the stress level is high, I'm practically living for work..4am every day and ATM monitoring on weekends, with lots of meetings and no time to attend children's school activities is making me consider a change of career when I finally join hubby in europe
Am co asking too pls, mentally and physically draining ☹️...
Halos..it is quite different. For instance, in some there is an external team that handles ATM adminstration/uptime etc BUT you load your cash. In terms of acquiring customers, there is a pool of customers they give you to call and make appointments. However, I guess I was already drained from Nigeria so it wasn't exciting for me anymore
@@wilfredeteng5701 thanks Mr eteng for the reply....
Beautiful couple. God bless you both
