Wednesday Nov 10, 2021
Have you ever felt like you’d be happier if your husband would just … help more around the house, or help more with the kids, or drink less alcohol, or share your faith, or be more loving to you, or stick up for you to his family, or spend less money … or fill in your own blank.
You’re not alone. We all have things about our husbands that we would like to change. But we know now, as experienced wives, that we can’t change other people.
So, I’d like to ask you. What if you could live happily in your marriage without getting so upset about those things?
Can you imagine how good that would feel? In today’s podcast, I am going to teach you how.

How to Increase Your Relationship with God

I once read a definition about peace that said that peace is the calmness you feel in your heart, soul and mind, because you know that despite the storm you may be facing, all is well. For me, this peace comes only from God.
During one of the most heartbreaking times in my life, it was only God who brought me peace. And so today I would like to share with you how you can strengthen your relationship with God and cultivate this peace, too.

My client Katie’s husband ditched her on date night. She was hurt and angry. She wanted to talk with him about it, but she knew it wouldn’t do any good coming from a place of anger and frustration. But she couldn’t let it go.
So we worked together to create the mental space for her to have that meaningful conversation with him, and as a result, they could both walk away from the experience as a bonding opportunity, instead of a damaging one.

There Must Be More to Life Than This

Thursday Sep 09, 2021
So often I hear from women that they aren’t happy. They aren’t fulfilled. They feel like something is missing is missing in life. And they literally wonder if there is more to life than this bump and grind of every day.
Have you ever felt that way? Exhausted. Depleted. Maybe even bored – not that you’re not busy – but you’re just not really living and having fun.
Have you spent years trying to feel better by reading self-help books, or taking classes … or even going to counseling?
If so, you’re not alone. So many of us moms find ourselves here at some point.
The problem is that we are focusing on solving the problem the wrong way. We are searching outside of ourselves to try to fill the void.
We will never fill this gap from the outside. It has to be filled from the inside. And I’d like to show you how to start doing that in this episode of the podcast.
