Strong Men Strong Marriages
Helping high achieving Christian men have more intimate marriages. Start with episodes 1-4 for an introduction. Traditional marriage counseling, couples therapy, couples counseling and even Christian marriage counseling will tell you that a good marriage is based on compromise. Validating feelings. Sacrifice. I tried that for years. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work. That’s why most couples who go through marriage counseling are the same or worse off after. BUT, in my studies in neuroscience at BYU, MD training at UCLA, psychiatry residency, marriage coach training, and most importantly in my own marriage, I finally found what DOES work. Building strength. Spiritual, mental, emotional and sexual strength, while anchored in following Christian marriage principles. Strength is attractive. And, it feels great. It builds trust. Add to this the skills of communication and intimacy, and you get a marriage full of phenomenal mental, emotional and physical intimacy. And, you set the example for generations to follow. I applied this to my own marriage, I felt better than ever and had more connection and passion than I thought possible. I started teaching this to other men and couples and they were able to create mental, emotional and sexual intimacy faster than they thought possible. This even works for affair recovery and emotional affairs. Now it’s your turn. Become a strong, attractive man. Create a strong, passionate marriage.

The Two Questions Your Wife Is Asking After You Hurt Her
The reason you’re not as connected to your wife as you’d like to be is because you’ve hurt her in some way.
That might be an obvious way, like an affair.
Or it may be a more subtle way, like neglecting her over time or serving her with “strings attached” (mosquito behaviors).
Either way, you have created disconnection by hurting her.
Most men try to fix this by trying to tell their wife they’re sorry and to move forward.
But that doesn’t work.
Learn what DOES work in this episode.

Summary:
-After you hurt your wife, she is asking “can I trust him?” and “will he hurt me again?”
-She draws closer as the starts to believe she can trust you, then pulls away when she’s afraid you might hurt her again
-Your job is to be consistent, trustworthy, manage your emotions, and communicate clearly (including the hard stuff)
-If you were hurt, remember you can’t rush trust. It has to be earned. Be patient with yourself. Make appropriate requests and set appropriate boundaries
-Consider coaching to help you through the process
