Wives Deserve Happiness in Marriage Too
Meet Julie.
Julie is a well-rounded person. She’s strong (in that non-assuming way) and confident. She can tune into the needs of her relationship while still being in touch with her own needs and feelings.
She has a deep laugh and an easy demeanor. When her friends want to cover over, her family hosts within their capacity. She doesn’t make everyone and everything her sole responsibility.

Julie wasn’t always like this.
She struggled with confidence, understanding where she ended and others began (boundaries) organization and prioritizing her needs. And yet, here she is, despite what she thought were personalty traits she could not address and integrate.
No more knots and feeling bad when she brings up a hard topic in marriage. No more confusion around relationship issues vs individual responsibility. No more feeling responsible for everyone’s hurt feelings. No more communication deadlocks. She’s not perfect but she’s pretty happy with where she is.
And these are some of things you’ll learn in my book, The Newlyweds: Pursuing Mutuality, Health, and Happiness in Marriage which launched this week.
The Newlyweds is all about becoming the healthiest version of yourself and co-creating a healthy marriage. It guides you through easy-to-implement techniques and mindset shifts. Seriously, my brain is wired for accessibility and I bring that easy-to-digest-and-understand into all my writing.
It makes marriage more straightforward and enjoyable. But most importantly, it allows you to enjoy the delight of being yourself in marriage. No more ignoring yourself.

On Monday, I told you about the discounted prices. The discount goes away tomorrow, Friday, at 4PM Central Time. I hope you check it out.

The book is a great gift for couples who are dating or newly married!
Let’s spread the word that its possible to have a healthy happy marriage without gender-specific roles, 24/7 sacrifice and the death of your personhood. Let’s spread the word that hardheartedness is unacceptable and that God does not expect partners to tolerate harm. Our agency and autonomy are God-given and worth protecting.
Happiness in marriage is not something that’s reserved for husbands. Wives deserve happiness in marriage too. Both spouses matter.
