Wisdom of Wives: What Women Have Taught Me About Life
May 29, 2025 | Episode 5104 Host: Scott Smith
Episode Description
In this episode, I discuss the valuable lessons I’ve learned from the women in my life—my wives, moms, daughters, and other influential women. I share wisdom from historical figures like Abigail Adams and Eleanor Roosevelt, exploring how women have shaped my perspective on life, relationships, and personal growth. From the “look” that every married man knows about the constructive power of silence, I reflect on how women’s wisdom has guided me through nearly two decades of podcasting and life itself.
Featured Story
Scott reflects on his relationships with the important women in his life, sharing personal insights about marriage, wisdom, and the complementary roles that men and women play together. He weaves personal anecdotes with historical quotes from first ladies and influential women, creating a tribute to the feminine wisdom that has shaped his journey over 19 years of podcasting.
Important Points
Women possess a unique wisdom that often guides and “tames” the men in their lives, creating balance in relationships.
True strength is revealed when women face challenging situations - they rise to the occasion with remarkable resilience.
Marriage is an active verb, not a passive noun. It requires daily effort and intentional love to make it work.
Memorable Quotes
“Wisdom and penetration are the fruit of experience, not the lessons of retirement and leisure.”
“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.”
“Marriage is not a noun. It’s a verb. It isn’t something you get. It’s something you do.”
Scott’s Three-Step Approach
Pay attention to the wisdom of the women around you and actively listen to their insights.
Recognize that men and women are different but complementary, bringing unique strengths to relationships.
Apply the lessons learned from feminine wisdom to become a better partner, father, and human being.
