Summary

Over twenty years ago I was shocked to find out that I could single-handedly make my crumbling marriage thrive using the 6 Intimacy Skills. I felt a strong desire to share this information with other women, the only way that I could get myself to stick to the new practices myself. A lot of women reached out for help, but without a team of coaches or any structure at that time, I got completely overwhelmed. So, I'm not proud to say, I ran away. I'll share why the Intimacy Skills weren't enough for me on today's episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast, where we're talking about 3 Insights from 20 Years of Empowering Happy Wives. 

My guest Milcah refused to be intimate with her husband, who was cold, critical and so tight with money he would not contribute financially except for rent. She was just waiting for her five kids to grow up so she could file for divorce and get away from him and his parents, who put her down and made fun of her. But today she says she's married to a cute, generous, loving man who brings her flowers and says wonderful, kind things. Same guy! They love to sit in the garden and talk, and she says the change is unreal. She's going to describe the steps she took so you can do the same thing. 

The Worst Relationship Advice of the Week is from a well-meaning PhD and professor who explains how to know if you're falling out of love. Like you need a quiz to tell you that! But wait until you hear what he says is a very bad sign. This approach guarantees more loneliness.
