Summary
Getting what you want in your marriage is important. The whole world depends on strong families, which means strong marriages, which means it's important to feel that your desires are being met. Because life gets tedious when day after day you go without feeling like you're getting what you want. It makes everything feel gray, and your husband can seem like a giant disappointment for not caring what you want. It's sad and lonely. On today's episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast we're talking about how to ask for what you want in marriage.
My guest Frances and her husband each had their own divorce attorneys. After all the anger and hurt in their marriage, they were both "done." But then Frances started a practice that not only stopped all the fighting, it also caused her husband to stop the divorce proceedings altogether. Now she says her marriage is so good she wouldn't trade it for anything, and her husband says she makes him want to be his best self. They are both ridiculously happy! She's going to tell us the steps she took to get her miracle.
