More Episodes

In this episode, we discuss the importance of maintaining a mature and respectful dialogue with your spouse regarding the division of household tasks, managing your needs, and fostering a deeper connection in your marriage as Catholics.

This isn't about making your husband do chores; it's about having a healthy conversation on housework. We explore how to find a balance between responsibilities, respecting each other's time, and nurturing your relationship. 

The key takeaways from this episode include:
- Recognizing that you are responsible for meeting your own needs, including sleep, mental health, and personal time.
- Learning to communicate your needs and boundaries in a mature way, without nagging.
- Emphasizing the importance of your shared vision within your marriage, focusing on raising your children in the faith.
- Assessing your capacity for housework and the option of outsourcing or delegating tasks.
- Approaching the conversation as a neutral problem-solving discussion rather than an emotionally charged one.

Remember, it's all about doing the work out of love for your family. If you're seeking more guidance on finding balance and improving communication within your family, consider joining our True Presence membership with a free trial to access valuable resources and support.
