Marriage, Relationship, & Dating Advice from renowned Author, Leah Richeimer. Extraordinary transformations with Practical Relationship & Spiritual Insights!
In marriage, women have so many Wants and Needs they feel are never met by their husbands. Furthermore, we have these unrealistic expectations for what our marriages should look like. Unfortunately, because we don't differentiate between our Wants and Needs, we cause our husbands to never be able to meet our expectations.
Watch this episode as Leah teaches us how to differentiate between our Wants and Needs, how to lower our expectations and be appreciative of the stuff our husbands do for us, and how to view our marriages from the lens of a glass that's half full. This powerful lesson of being able to hone in on our deepest needs will ensure our husbands are finally able to meet them, which will in turn bring us the satisfaction and happiness in marriage we are striving for.

It's in our human DNA to blame -- so when we have challenges in our marriage, we tend to go towards feeling "I married the wrong guy! He's not the person I envisioned him to be!"

The more love we shower on our husband, the more love & contentment we will feel in our marriage.
Listen as Leah explores the need to appreciate all the good we have in our life so that we can feel the most contentment.
