In today's episode, Francie discusses what it means to be a wholehearted wife. We have to take care of our heart. Are we allowing others to influence us? Are we stuck in a comparison trap? Are we looking at someone's highlight reels?

4 Practicals:

• Get in the presence of God regularly
• Pray for someone who triggers envy and comparison
• Find spaces in your day to find quiet in the day and allow the truth of God's word to settle you
• Consider what steps you need to take with social media in order to keep your eyes on Jesus and not what distracts you.

In today's episode, Francie discusses what it's like to talk about sex together. If it's hard to talk about intimacy in your marriage, maybe there's a deeper level of heart work that God wants to do. If it's painful to talk about because of shame or abuse, listen to the Holy Spirit and stop and get help in terms of counseling.

This is a slow process.

Ways to talk about sex:

-find books about it

-use a game or a playful approach

-practice what you read

-build trust with your words

- use code words

In today's episode, Francie discusses the question- what does your spouse need to hear in this season? If you lack grace in your words, it can do real damage. Have you asked your spouse lately what they want to hear from you? How can I affirm you? How can I encourage you? What do you need to hear from me in the bedroom? After asking these questions, then listen and trust.
