Joy at Home™ | Homeschool, Christian Mom, Homemaking, Homestead, Homeschooling, Christian Woman, Time Management, Christian Katie Hedrick | Certified Christian Life Coach & Homeschool Mom

We’re going deep (on a spicy topic) in today’s episode of Joy at Home. 
 
You guessed it… we’re talking about sex. And about how to talk to your husband ABOUT sex (and other tough topics).
 
After your relationship with the Lord, your marriage should be the next thing on your priority list. Yet, how often do you find yourself going through the motions day after day, doing (or not doing) things out of obligation? 
 
As wives, we’re really missing out… on the connection that hard conversations bring, on the gift that marriage is, on the beauty of building trust and intimacy, on the deepening of relationship with our spouse, and (yes!) even on the pleasure that sex should bring. 
 
Relationship Coach, Mary Whitman-Ortiz is joining me today to share her best tips about how you can have fruitful conversations with your husband. She’s also sharing about what to do when difficult, uncomfortable topics come up. 
 
Ultimately, Mary is bringing a ton of encouragement to let you know that having hard conversations about sex can and will lead to a healthy, fulfilling sex life and marriage for both you and your spouse!
 

Jen Weaver is no stranger to having hard conversations with God. After the loss of a baby, and undiagnosed fertility struggles, Jen found herself deep in grief and going “God-adjacent,” instead of running to Him with her heart and problems. It wasn’t until she pivoted and chose to bring her heartbreak before the Lord in conversation, that she began to find healing.
 
You know, sometimes we just don’t want to talk to God, we’d rather run and hide instead, and sometimes we don’t want to hear what God has to say… Yet, He faithfully stands ready to hold us and to hear our prayers. Because that’s who He is. 
 
Join Jen and me on the podcast today as we talk about conversations with God and dive into questions like… 
 
“Where do I start in approaching God with a hard conversation?”
 
“Does God even want to talk to me?”
 
“How do I hear Him?” and “What if I don’t hear Him?”
 
I think you’ll come out the other side ready to slip into a wonderful conversation with your Heavenly Father. I pray that it’s a sweet one!

Have you ever found yourself sweating bullets over a hard conversation that NEEDS to happen?
 
Conflict might not feel good, especially if you’re non-confrontational, but unresolved conflict can feel even worse. Like a wound that festers, sometimes the problem continues to grow and it can create bitterness in your heart. 
 
The answer? Have the conversation. Even when it’s hard.
 
Lyncon Martinez, host of Gather the Gals, is joining me on the podcast today for a deep dive into how to have those hard conversations, while maintaining Biblical grace and honor.
 
From talking to your in-laws or your spouse, to dealing with uncomfortable conversations involving your close friends, Lyncon and I will help you navigate the tough moments and help you find the courage you need, so that the conversation can happen and the healing can begin.

If you’re anything like me, then you know that there’s nothing worse than being faced with a situation and not knowing what choice to make. 
 
I’m talking about the tough decisions, like “I’m supposed to be in two places at once. Which one do I choose?” Or “there’s a hard situation at my workplace. My husband gave me this piece of advice, my best friend gave me that piece of advice. How should I actually handle the challenging circumstance?” (In other words, not things like “do I order the guac or the queso?” That one’s easy!)
 
I’m talking about the hard stuff. The uncomfortable stuff. The situations and choices that leave you stuck in analysis paralysis because you just don’t know what to do. 
 
There is a way to eliminate the decision fatigue. It starts with knowing your core values… the foundational beliefs that anchor your life.
 
Today on the podcast, I’m giving the low down on what core values are, why they are so important and we’ll identify some values that you’re probably never even thought of before. By the end of today’s episode, you’ll be ready to make your next choice BEFORE there’s even a choice to make! 
 
Let’s make the decision making process MUCH simpler for you. Sound good? Press play and let’s get started!

Worry, stress, overwhelm… whatever you call it, anxiety can be a tough thing to manage. 
 
Take heart… today on the podcast, I’m sharing two ways that you can reduce your anxiety.
 
Join me to hear about the P3 method and the Re-Frame/Pre-Frame strategy. These two concepts will equip you to reduce, or even eliminate your anxiety once and for all.
