Communication struggles are one of the most common issues in marriage. You are not alone if this applies to you. In this week’s episode, we discuss the importance of communication, and I share three key ideas for improving your communication in marriage.
First, we recognize that everything a person does or doesn't do communicates something. Second, we look to understand the lens or perspective through which communications are filtered, both when speaking and listening. Lastly, I emphasize the importance of allowing spiritual guidance in communication, particularly in difficult conversations.
We also talk about this month’s Podcast birthday celebration where we are giving away Amazon gift cards to listeners who join the mailing list and submit a review of the podcast.

In this week’s episode, I continue my conversation with Annette Otlmans. Annette takes us into the mind of a chronic abuser and gives us the 4 pillars of emotional abuse which are:
Ridgid thinking in these areas:
EntitlementImage managementFaulty belief systemLower emotional IQAnnette and I also discuss what the bible says about submission, oppression, and abuse as it relates to being a biblical wife. We talk about toxic masculinity but also acknowledge the ways in which the patriarchy can be benevolent.
Lastly, Annette gives us resources and steps to take if we realize we’re in an abusive relationship but aren’t able to or choose not to leave.

Do you ever feel like what is wrong with me? Am I not loveable? Why do we have so many communication problems? Are you wondering why your relationship is so toxic? Have you felt like you’re walking on eggshells and can’t determine if your husband is abusive or just has a cranky demeanor?
All these questions are answered in this interview with Annette Oltmans of the Mend Project as she shares her work with us on covert emotional abuse. This is one of my most important episodes to date because as Annette says - “Clarity is the first step to healing.”
She answers questions such as:
What is emotional abuse? What is double abuse and what can pastors and therapists do to prevent it?How can we discern if we are in a double abuse situation? What is the responsibility of the complementarian church as it relates to abuse and telling women to submit to their husbands? What are common abusive behaviors and red flags we should look out for? What is the difference between someone with a mean/cranky disposition (or someone raised with bad habits) vs. a chronic abuser?If this episode resonated with you or you think may apply to someone you know, please share it!

Intimacy can come in many forms. When we think of our close relationships we often think of emotional intimacy. When we think of marriage, we often think of physical & emotional intimacy. But financial intimacy is another type that can really only be experienced through the close bond that comes with sharing a life, goals, and bills with someone!
This week, we sit down with Marital Financial Coaches Rebecca and Dylan who who talk to us about what is financial intimacy and how to create it. What holds us back from experiencing it and how are some ways to create a stress-free environment around marital finances.
Rebecca and Dylan can be found on their podcast RADMoney or their website RADCoaches.com
