❌ Have you ever felt like marriage is harder than it should be? Like no matter how much you give, something still feels off?
What if I told you some of the beliefs you were taught about marriage are actually hurting your happiness because they're not the WHOLE story? In this episode, I'm sitting down with Sheila Gregoire to uncover 6 wrong beliefs Christian women bring into marriage—and why they can secretly lower your satisfaction and connection with your spouse.
🔥 Inside this episode, we dive into:
✔️ The #1 overlooked factor that makes women feel unseen, unheard, and exhausted in marriage (hint: it’s NOT just communication!)
✔️ Why Christian women experience more sexual pain than non-Christian women (this one shocked me!)
✔️ The "mental load" trap and how it can wreck your relationship (and what to do about it!)
✔️ The myth that women are better at multitasking—and why it’s keeping marriages stuck in imbalance
✔️ The dangerous belief that "the man is the decision maker"—and why it can actually hurt your connection
✔️ A biblical but countercultural approach to partnership that brings joy, peace, and intimacy back into your marriage
If you've ever felt burnt out, disconnected, or unseen in your marriage, this episode will open your eyes and give you practical ways to shift your mindset, lighten your load, and find joy in your relationship again.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
