When Wives Carry Too Much: Letting Go of Control and Trusting God in Marriage

It's NOT All On You (And How to Let Go & Trust God in Marriage)

Are you carrying more in your marriage and life than God ever asked you to? So many wives live with an unspoken pressure: "If this is going to work, it's up to me." But that mindset often leads to exhaustion, anxiety, and disconnection.

In this episode, we sit down with Blake Guichet (The Girl Named Blake) to talk about what happens when God begins to reshape your identity, your priorities, and the way you show up in your marriage.

This conversation will help you release control, let go of pressure, and learn to trust God in deeper ways.
