Welcome to Build Your Happier Marriage, the podcast dedicated to helping Christian wives of entrepreneurial husbands rekindle love, connection, and intimacy—without losing your peace and joy.

In this episode, we tackle a challenge every couple faces: handling conflict without breaking your connection. If you’ve ever felt that disagreements with your husband are creating distance, this episode is for you.

What You’ll Learn in Today’s Episode:

• Why conflict feels different when you’re married to an entrepreneurial husband—and how it impacts your connection.
• A Christ-centered framework for handling conflict in a way that strengthens your bond.
• Practical, faith-aligned steps you can start using today to transform how you and your husband navigate disagreements.

Episode Highlights:

• The Problem: Conflict is inevitable, but when unresolved, it can create emotional distance, especially when your husband’s entrepreneurial journey demands so much of his time and energy.
• A Relatable Origin Story: Hear how my early work with couples on the brink of separation inspired the Christ-centered framework I now teach to help wives rekindle love and connection in their marriages.
• The Solution: Embracing the mind of Christ (Philippians 2:5) is the most effective way to approach conflict with grace, empathy, and understanding. Discover why this works better than traditional advice.
• Actionable Step: Learn how pausing to pray and asking yourself a simple question can completely change the tone of your next disagreement.

• Philippians 2:5: “In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.”
