Doing Life Differently

54 | How to Talk with Your Spouse About Your Vision with Julia Woods


Listen Later

This episode hit deep! If you’ve ever felt like you’re the only one driving vision in your marriage or that your spouse doesn’t seem as invested, you’re not alone. Julia Woods and I dive into why vision casting as a couple can feel so challenging—and why it often triggers emotions like fear, shame, and frustration.

Julia shares powerful insights on:

• How vision exposes deeper beliefs about ourselves and our relationship.

• The tension between feeling like we’re “too much” or “not enough” in marriage.

• Why we default to blame instead of doing the deeper work within ourselves.

• The real purpose of vision casting—hint: it’s NOT just about planning trips or setting goals.

I walked away from this conversation so encouraged, especially by the reminder that failed vision meetings aren’t failures at all—they’re gifts that reveal what’s really going on beneath the surface.

If you’re struggling to get on the same page with your spouse, this episode will give you a whole new perspective!

Reflection Questions:

1️⃣ Before approaching a vision conversation, what stories am I telling myself about my spouse? Are they true?

2️⃣ How do I typically react when I feel unseen or unheard in vision planning?

3️⃣ What fears come up when I think about casting vision together? Am I afraid of being “too much” or “not enough”?

4️⃣ How can I shift from trying to get my spouse on my page to creating a page we both want to be on together?

5️⃣ What would it look like to approach vision casting from a place of humility and surrender instead of control?

Take a moment to sit with these before your next vision conversation—you might be surprised what comes up!
