Get ready for another transformative journey on the AwakenYou in Your Marriage Podcast! In Episode 143, we’re diving into Part 2 of our Conflict to Connection series: Decoding Conflict: Unraveling the Why.

What You’ll Learn:

Last week, we explored recognizing recurring conflicts in your marriage, asking you to observe those moments of activation. This week, we’re taking a step further. Here’s what you’ll discover:

  1. Decode Your Emotions: Explore the emotions that surface during conflicts. Learn to process and understand what you feel.
  2. Roots in Childhood: Uncover if your spouse’s actions trigger memories from your past, especially from childhood. Understand the echoes of the past in your present.
  3. Stories We Tell Ourselves: Examine the narratives you create about your partner’s actions. Often, these stories are deeply rooted in past experiences.

Why It Matters:

The goal is to break free from the patterns that keep you entangled in needing your partner to change for you to feel better. As you unravel the inner conflicts, you pave the way for a calmer, more understanding connection.

Self-Reflection Exercise:

  1. Explore Your Emotions: Identify how conflicts make you feel. Need guidance? Episode 23 is a great resource: How to Process Those Emotions
  2. Childhood Echoes: Check if your spouse’s actions remind you of scenarios from your childhood.
  3. The Stories We Tell: Reflect on the narratives you create about your partner’s actions. Are they stories from the past or the present?

Your Journey to Connection:

Understanding your unique conflict dynamic is the bridge to connection. This work takes practice, and it’s a journey, not a sprint. With each step, you’re paving the way for healthier, more vibrant connections.

Ready for Change? Book a Call:

This process isn’t meant to be walked alone. If you’re ready to dive deeper and bring real examples to light, book a call. Let’s untangle the complexities and move towards transformation.

Your Feminine Transformation: Embodying True Self Part I Ep 142

Your Feminine Transformation: Embodying True Self Part I Ep 142
 

 

Are you ready to explore a whole new perspective on the masculine and feminine energies within you?

In AwakenYou in Your Marriage Episode 142: Your Feminine Transformation: Embodying True Self Part 1, we dive into the incredible world of your feminine transformation. This isn’t about swinging between masculine and feminine, it’s about the full spectrum of feminine energy – from wild and chaotic to soft and alluring.

For many of us, we’ve adopted masculine energies as a way to achieve success. But, here’s the thing – you can create immense success while fully embracing your feminine energy. And when you learn to embody this energy, you naturally invite your partner to step into their masculine strength. 

It’s a beautiful cycle where the feminine feels safe and respected, and the masculine steps into their role of empathy and support. 

So, what’s your take on the balance of masculine and feminine in your life and your relationships? Are you fully embodying your true feminine self, or is there room for growth? 

Dive into this intriguing exploration of your true self in Episode 142 of AwakenYou. Share your thoughts, questions, and revelations with me – I’d love to hear your perspective!

Breaking Free from Laziness in Your Marriage Ep 141

Breaking Free from Laziness in Your Marriage Ep 141 | The Marriage Coach
 

 

This week I’m wrapping up an insightful series on behaviors that can slowly corrode your marriage. Over the past few weeks, we’ve delved into selfishness, pride, control, and resentment. This week I unravel the topic of laziness in marriage. 

Laziness, in this context, isn’t just about lacking motivation. It’s often a symptom of something deeper. We’re going to explore what might be triggering laziness and how to revive your relationship. 

I talk about:
1️⃣ What laziness is.
2️⃣ How to recognize laziness.
3️⃣ What causes laziness when it comes to our marriages.
4️⃣ How to be an active participant in your marriage.

So, here’s your call to action: Take a closer look at your own “marriage laziness” from the inside out. Ask yourself what might be causing it. Are there unresolved issues or pent-up resentments? Have you dedicated so much time to others that you’ve forgotten your own relationship desires?

This week’s AwakenYou in Your Marriage Episode 141: Breaking Free from Laziness in Your Marriage could be your first step to change the laziness dynamic in your marriage. If you find yourself stuck in the relationship rut, consider booking yourself a program inquiry call, and let’s talk about steps to move you into a place that feels better. It could be the catalyst you needed to turn your marriage around.
