Why Your Kids Cannot Come First

Episode #292 What do you think is the driving force behind why we lose connection in our relationships? Is it a lack of prioritization? Most people say that the proper prioritization is that the individual must take care of themselves first, then the relationship, then the kids. However, sometimes the kids get sick and need your help and attention, so they are taken care of first in order for you to take care of yourself. When you have kids, the relationship "dries out" a little bit. You tend to forget to provide for each other's emotional needs, as individuals and as a couple, because your focus is mainly on the kids. We must take care of ourselves first. Be honest with yourself. Sit with your wife, come up with what you want individually, what you want as a couple, and find ways to fit those wants into your relationship. Make a system that works for you and your family. Do something fun and take care of yourself so that you can take care of your relationship and your family. __________ Hungry for more?

Revisit: I Don't Need To Date My Wife, We're Too Busy

Episode #290 When was the last time you took your wife on a date? If you're not actively dating your wife, you won’t be able to build and grow a deeper connection in the relationship. Typically, we become so busy making money to provide for all the needs of our family that we often forget to plan a date night with our wife. This will often result in feeling guilty for not being able to offer the attention that our partner needs, which is why we resort to alternatives. We buy expensive gifts for her in order to make up for those missed date nights, but that’s not the true connection she’s looking for. Because of this, the disconnection between you grows, and soon you will realize that you and your partner are slowly drifting apart. It's important to work on yourself in order to have the energy you need to truly nurture your relationship. Prioritize your relationship with your wife. Date her the way you dated her before your marriage. Make her feel special. Dedicate a space and time to connect with her without mentioning anything about business. Give her that deeper level of intimacy and connection. In this episode, you will learn the importance of dating your wife, the effects of relying on the alternatives instead of dating your wife to build a connection, how to nurture your relationship and how to provide emotion in the relationship. __________ Hungry for more?

Revisit: When Results Don't Show Up Fast Enough

Saving vs. Leading

Episode #286 When your spouse is going through something, do you feel the urge to "save" her or do you want to lead her?  We tend to try and solve other people's problems because we want external validation. We'd love to help other people because it makes us feel good about ourselves and makes us feel significant in the world that we live in. Saving seems to be the most honorable thing, but in reality, it's the last thing most people want. If you want to help her, allow her to go through the process. That's leadership. Make her feel emotionally safe and trust you fully. Once you're solid within yourself, then you can become like the lighthouse in the storm. The lighthouse stands, guiding her home, no matter how hard the waves are crashing. Show her the way, how to solve it, without any expectation of a particular outcome. That's when people start following. Women don't want to be saved, they want to be led. In this episode, you will learn how important is it for women to be led, not saved, by a powerful man, as we go deeper into some of the key differences between saving and leading. __________ Hungry for more?
