The Empowered Wife: Six Surprising Secrets for Attracting Your Husband's Time, Attention, and Affection

Product Information

Desperate to move our marriage forward my wife searched for years to an approach outside of counseling because she believed in your points that marriage counselors typically haven’t had our experiences.

I don't know about any other women, but I need respect too. Her contention is that all we women want is love, while all men need is respect is false. The two are intertwined IMHO. You are amazing!!! Your skills really work! I don’t know how I could thank you enough. I have been using these skills for only 3 days and my husband seems like a totally different person! A week ago we had a fight where I had told him he wasn’t a man because he had no initiative at all and always had to be told what to do he had no self esteem and no drive. Then I found your information! It started working almost immediately!!! LISTEN TO THE SHOW: My Husband and I Have Nothing to Talk About On today’s episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast, we’re talking about what to do when you find yourself thinking, “Hey, my husband and I have nothing to talk about.” Because nothing feels lonelier than being married and just eating together in silence or living under the same roof but never having the deep conversations you’re craving. I’ll Housework is not and never will be self-care. Not like singing and dancing, or going to a party, or getting a massage, or sneaking off to read, or having a piece of chocolate and coffee—whatever it is that gives you that happy lift. Self-Care Expands Your Time The critical one that is being neglected is the one you point out—taking care of herself and finding her own pleasures every day. Which would mean letting go of the non-controlling or controlling behaviors she has tried so many times before with him. Just let go. And realize that she can’t resolve his issues for him. When do you say right up front…it’s critical to psychologically protect yourself at this point? I think it bothers me too that her husband has read your book (I’d say, keep the book away from men in our lives, too—maybe that could go into the title) and he seems to be perhaps using it against her best interests.

Success!

Men are highly motivated to make their wives happy. Notice I didn’t say “some men” or “most men” but just “men.” That’s because in my research where I asked thousands of men how important it is that their wife is happy, they ALL said the same thing. That it’s the most important thing, everything, it’s of utmost importance, or in the UK, they said it’s imperative. In other words, they all wanted to feel like their wife’s hero. You might even think, like I thought, that your man is one of those rare men who doesn’t have a hero instinct. A lot of our students thought that too, but I’m happy to say we were all wrong. On today’s episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast we’re talking about how to trigger a man's hero instinct. I’ll share 5 ways to trigger his hero gene—and how you could be unwittingly sabotaging his opportunities to be your hero. I make no excuse for anything I’ve done and I regret my past.

So he says, "Hon, I want to talk to you about something. You know, I get that you were super busy this weekend. And I know you had a lot going on, but you know, I am kind of feeling a little neglected this weekend. You know, I would like to maybe come first once in a while.

Ladies, I know that it is hard to see the problem, and I am sure that I will not explain it properly. I’ve been married for over 20 years,” she confessed, “and I feel like I just don’t even know what intimacy is.” Women say that they want the emotional closeness. They want that connection. They want their man to listen and emphasize with their feelings. No problem, I am happy to do that. I want to be there for my woman in every way. by couples. The exception are the two experts I mentioned above. They offer different perspectives, for sure, but both have much to offer and are training therapists, often as a team in workshops. Perel calls it like it is and is changing the course of conversation in couples therapy a lot (she is controversial to some, but she is bringing new perspectives and has criticism of traditional “couples therapy” herself.
