In this episode of Married Moms Take Control, Nevart Willborn focuses on the power of active listening to help married moms feel truly heard by their husbands. She describes how married moms can go from having frustrating moments—like venting about a chaotic day to a husband glued to his phone—to applying active listening skills to turn things around. Nevart explains what active listening is: fully focusing on your partner’s words and emotions without interrupting or judging. She shares why it’s a lifeline for busy moms who often feel invisible under the weight of parenting and household tasks.
Listen to this episode to answer the questions that matter to every mom:
- Why do I feel ignored when I share my day with my husband?
- How can I get my husband to hear me without him trying to “fix” everything?
- How can I teach my husband to listen and validate me?
- How can I learn to be more present when my husband and kids talk to me?
- Can small changes in how we talk really reduce our arguments?
