302: How To Save Marriage On The Brink Of Divorce

No matter how much Kate did to fix her marriage, it was never enough. Her husband kept calling her "selfish," so she gave more—got a master's degree with an infant on her lap, took a second job, and made sure he had nothing to do around the house. But the fights kept getting worse. After one midnight screaming match that woke the children, her husband said something that shook her. Kate started Googling divorce attorneys, but instead found a book that changed everything. Now her husband takes her out on dates twice a week, built her a dream office in two days, and sends her love songs about his "hot wife." She went from doing everything to doing so much less—and getting so much more. If you're exhausted from trying to make your relationship work, Kate's story will show you there's another way.   Download the FREE Adored Wife Roadmap now and start transforming your relationship today!

301: How Do You Respect a Husband You Don’t Trust?

Angie’s husband came to America not speaking English, so of course she had to help him with everything—navigating websites, polishing his resume, even taking pictures of groceries so he wouldn't buy the wrong thing. But working 80 hours a week as a medical resident while mothering her husband crushed any attraction she once felt for him. When a therapist suggested she may have married the wrong guy, Angie spent months in agony on the fence, seriously considering divorce. Then she discovered there was another way. Today, that same "incapable" husband works in tech support, handles all their finances, and does more childcare than she does. Angie went from wanting to leave to feeling so grateful it moves her to tears. If you're convinced your husband just isn't capable and you can't see how the skills could possibly apply to your situation, Angie's transformation will show you exactly how to go from resentment to respect.
