Remember when he couldn’t keep his eyes—or hands—off you? If you’re missing that spark and want to feel truly desired again, this episode is for you. Learn how you can be ridiculously attractive to your husband in ways that go beyond looks.
If, like me, you’ve found yourself feeling entirely resistible to your man, you know how painful that is. You might think that means it’s time to lose a few pounds or get a makeover.
When I couldn’t seduce my own husband, that’s what I thought too. But that had nothing to do with why I wasn’t attractive to him. Now that I know how to magnetize him, I want every woman to know because this stuff really works to make you irresistible.
Like when I’m brushing crumbs off the kitchen counter and John says “Don’t move,” he gets out his phone to take my picture like I’m a supermodel he’s been married to for 35 years.
What I learned has given me an unfair advantage.
Here’s how to make yourself a magnet too, sweatpants and bed hair included.
Ever hear the devastating words “I'm NEVER coming back” and feel your heart drop into your stomach? Vanessa did. She already felt unloved, then her husband left her. But even when it seemed all hope was lost, she was determined to get him back. So she didn’t just sit there in despair—she took action. Today the same husband is the man of her dreams. They fall asleep cuddling, and she’s confident that he loves her dearly and profoundly. Listen in to discover the surprising steps she took to turn things around and how you can bring hope back to your marriage too.
If you’re anything like I was, you know the frustration of getting so angry at your husband that it gets ugly and you end up with an emotional hangover. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Once you adopt these 3 practices, everything can change. This is the true confession of a former rageaholic who found a lasting cure. Here’s how to restore peace in your marriage and get your dignity back.
For over a decade, managing my anger was impossible as far as I could tell. I picked on unlucky store clerks, bank tellers and customer service reps. But most of all, I raged at my husband, who suffered through my episodes by saying very little and escaping as soon as he could. The tremendous shame and remorse I felt afterward didn’t help me when the urge arose the next time. But I no longer feel that urge. I haven’t had a Godzilla episode in over 20 years. My clients and coaches also report that their anger subsided and they regained their dignity when they adopted these simple practices.
If you suspect your husband is a narcissist or he’s been diagnosed as one, you’ve gotta wonder if there’s any hope for him to change. Can you protect your self-worth and make your marriage thrive? My guest today shares the strategies that worked to change her narcissistic husband without him even realizing it.
After enduring verbal abuse and stonewalling, Jade was ready to announce divorce. Then she learned the 6 Intimacy Skills™ and discovered that the biggest challenge in her marriage wasn’t at all what she thought it was.

On today’s episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast, she’s going to tell us how she did it so you can do it too.

Learn life-changing ways to start feeling taken care of instead of lonely and exhausted. Because it’s too tiring to be the one who does everything, from taking care of kids to housework to earning money to paying bills and managing social plans. Especially if you’ve asked your man to help and it just feels like pulling teeth! Or if he does things and you have to redo them because they aren’t done right. It’s so unfair. Who wouldn’t be resentful when you’re doing so much more of the work? I was. VERY resentful. Even the things that he did, I had to remind him to do them, which was a heavy mental load. I told him he needed to step up and do more. That got me wall-to-wall hostility, but not more help with housework. So today, I’m revealing two secrets to stop doing all the work in marriage.

It’s natural to feel scared or jealous at times, but what are you supposed to do when your jealousy feels justified? It’s so painful to worry about being cheated on, and devastating to have it happen to you. It makes you feel like a fool no matter what you do. But I’m here to tell you that you have more power than you probably realize to create a marriage where cheating is just not a concern. On today’s episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast, I’m revealing why husbands cheat and how to prevent it.
Plus, my guest Sabrina felt unwanted, unappreciated and unseen in her marriage, which was lacking intimacy. But then she discovered her power and what was contributing to their problems. Today she and her husband are so close and intimate in every way. She feels cherished, wanted, respected and so loved! She’s going to tell us how she did it so you can do it too.
It's heartbreaking to feel distant from your man when you long for the closeness you once shared. Without that spark, there’s a lonely ache, even when you’re together, leaving you wondering if you'll ever feel desired again. You may have heard that respect is like oxygen for men, but why should you have to do all the work? What if you don’t respect him? That’s exactly how I felt. But what made me decide to be bound to him for life if he was such a loser pants? Wouldn’t that make me a loser pants too? No! So that led me to think about what I had been drawn to, how wise and generous he once was, how talented and sweet, how musically talented and adventurous and handsome. And he’s still that same guy. When I remembered all that, I felt grateful instead of resentful and contemptuous. (Turns out, gratitude is a much happier feeling.) But how do you get there if you’re not feeling it? On today’s episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast, I’m sharing 3 secrets for restoring the intimacy in your marriage.
