future husband

I’m sure you’ve heard this saying before: “Be careful what you wish for. You might just get it.”

There is a different version of this saying, by American writer Laurie Halse Anderson, which I like better: “Be careful what you wish for. There’s always a catch.” And I believe that the catch is in the “why”.

So, in this episode, I want to share with you two stories that were driven by two different whys and how they led to two completely different marriages.

EPISODE BREAKDOWN:

• [01:44] The fear-driven wish: my first marriage
• [06:00] Rebuilding my life after my divorce
• [08:08] Trying out eHarmony because “I had to”
• [09:44] Enjoying being a single mom
• [11:27] Reflecting on my failed marriage and what I’d look for in a new one
• [13:17] The abundance-driven wish: a little nudge and my future husband

Thank you to Jen Johnson, Samantha Saville and Kenedi Carter for joining us in a powerful discussion about masculinity and leadership. We will also follow up with Brody Field with a few more questions from the ladies.

 What does masculinity look like to you? What did you expect in a spiritual leader? Where did you get your views on these things? We will all share our view and how expectations have gotten in the way.

We hope you will share this episode with anyone who wants to learn a little more about what Spiritual leadership is.

If you missed the Men's perspective on this topic, go back and listen to S2. ep 26

We would love to hear from you! marriageunfiltered@yahoo.com
