We took the time to answer a number of the other marriage questions that didn’t quite fit the last episode, but were too good to ignore.

We received over 150 questions about marriage and were surprised that most of them could be grouped in eleven issues that affect most, if not all, marriages. This is also the episode where we share about our book, Eleven Eleven: Painting the Challenge and Beauty of Marriage. You can pick up a copy from the Well and Wise store.

With our current season of different health challenges, we took the time to try different hacks and we share our thoughts on them. We ranked them from free to inexpensive to kinda pricey to expensive. Hopefully, this proves helpful to people.This episode is in partnership with one of the brands we use, Erceflora Kiddie.

We talk about female empowerment: why it's important, what it really looks like, and how men can help. This episode is in partnership with an important campaign with World Vision called #GirlsCan.

We continue the talk about gaslighting. What does it look like? And most importantly, how do we respond in a healthy and biblical way? Be sure to stay tuned to the lengthy Q&A at the end.

We’ve been hearing this word around so decided to do a deep dive. We talk about what gaslighting is and isn’t, why people do it, how to respond to it, and how the Bible helps us understand and overcome it.

Joe and Carla take the time to do a deep dive on a post that spread through their Facebook. We agree with the points we find true and consistent, and explain which parts we disagree with and why. We also rave about our new favorite tv series and book.
