  • HMS066 | Viral Steve Harvey Divorce Rumors That Shocked the World And Lessons Learned

    Send us Fan Mail

    “Just because of what happened before doesn't mean it's automatically true now”.

    What do you think of that saying?

    Would you like to be only remembered by your past especially if it is one that you regret?

    Unfortunately, many people use our past to make predictions for our future and also as a way to judge our present.

    This is what I believe happened to Steve Harvey and his wife, Marjorie Harvey.

    Both Steve and Marjorie have had complicated pasts.

    They've been in different marriages, and there are allegations and rumors that have been swirling about outside relationships that make it easier for people to believe the recent rumors they've heard.

    It's important to remember that we shouldn't jump to conclusions about someone based solely on their past.

    In this episode, we're going to talk about five valuable lessons I believe we can learn from Steve and Marjorie Harvey’s recent allegations.

    We'll also explore what we should consider in our own marriages based on what's happened. This situation serves as a clear example of why it's important not to trust everything we see or read on the internet but also what we need to do for our own marriages.

    Sometimes, people forgive their partner even if they cheated because they want to keep their family together. I think this is a good reason to forgive.

    As a marriage and family therapist, I have seen many couples struggle with infidelity. It is a very difficult thing to forgive, but it is possible.

    The decision to forgive depends on many factors, like your personal experiences, spirituality, and/or your desire to keep your family together.

    In this episode, we talk about Dr. Mariana Bakarova's research on forgiveness after infidelity published in the October issue of Psychology Today.  She is a distinguished scholar from the University of Toronto. She found that there are 32 common reasons why people forgive.

  • HMS060 | Why You Should Become An Extraordinary Wife with Kingsley Grant

    Send us Fan Mail

    Marriage is a special bond where wives contribute a lot and make big sacrifices. They have a unique ability to give wholeheartedly, which strengthens their connection with their husbands.

    Throughout the journey of marriage, wives accept their imperfections and appreciate their genuine efforts to create a happy and harmonious partnership.

    And let's not forget, they deserve a lot of praise for all that they do.

    In the fabric of marriage, a wife's role is filled with love, dedication, and selflessness. She goes above and beyond to nurture the bond she shares with her husband.

    Being an extraordinary wife doesn't mean being perfect. It means being exceptional in your role within the marriage.

    In this episode, we're focusing on encouraging wives to become extraordinary in their marriages. This transformation is important and aimed specifically at wives, but husbands are also urged to listen and support their wives on this journey.

  • HMS059 | How Not To Relate To Your Spouse with Elizabeth Polinsky

    Send us Fan Mail

    Trauma. PTSD. Divorce. These are just a few of the issues mentioned that can disrupt a marriage.

    Bumps and disagreements are indeed a normal part of any relationship, including marriages. No marriage is perfect, and it is unrealistic to expect complete harmony and agreement at all times. 

    However, what sets apart healthier and happier marriages is how couples handle these challenges.

    In a healthy and happy marriage, both partners recognize that disagreements are inevitable and approach them with respect, understanding, and open communication.

    They understand that compromise and negotiation are crucial components of a successful partnership.

    In this episode, Elizabeth Polinsky, a licensed counselor and military wife shares her upbringing and how her childhood experiences shaped her initial belief that marriages don't work due to witnessing divorces and conflict-ridden relationships.

  • HMS058 | Almost Divorced After 3 Months of Marriage

    Send us Fan Mail

    “In our journey, we believed we had all the answers about marriage, thinking that once we had the perfect model of a Christian union, everything would be smooth sailing”
    ~ Sarah

    If a couple finds themselves feeling disconnected or experiencing difficulties reminiscent of a divorced couple, it can indeed be surprising and disheartening.

    While it's generally expected for newly married couples to experience a strong sense of closeness and intimacy during their first year, it's not uncommon for challenges to arise, even within the first few months.

    However, it's important to remember that every marriage is unique, and each couple faces its own set of circumstances and obstacles.

    In this episode, you'll hear how our guest, Sarah Nelson, handled two major crises in her marriage, and one of those was her two-year-old daughter having a stroke and the impact it had on her marriage, and another to do with her own marriage itself.

    Sarah Nelson is an acclaimed author and captivating speaker, whose work has touched the hearts and minds of countless individuals worldwide.
