154: 5 Ways to Maintain Balance in a Relationship

When things were out of balance in my marriage, I was seething with resentment about my husband not doing enough chores or making enough money, which left me having to make up for him in both areas. I also had to control the finances since we were always so close to the edge and I knew he wouldn’t be able to handle it. It was very stressful and lonely to be stuck carrying these heavy burdens, but I didn’t see any way out. Maybe you’ve been there too.

Fortunately, I learned a practice that completely changed all that. Today my relationship feels much more balanced, and far from doing everything around here, I feel well taken care of and even spoiled! It may even be out of balance the other way, with him doing practically everything and me just coasting along.

And I’m married to the same guy, so go figure.

On today’s episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast, we’re talking about 5 ways to maintain balance in a relationship while feeling taken care of.
