AwakenYou in Your Marriage - Integrity & Why Your Marriage Feels Unaligned with Leslie Canup
play

03/21/23 • 57 min

The easiest way to tell if you are aligned in your integrity in your marriage is by examining how you're feeling about:

  • the last interesting conversation your spouse initiated
  • the previous activity or date they planned for the two of you
  • the way they expressed their love for you yesterday

Think about something in your life that you feel amazing about; maybe it's something you created with your hands, an outdoor adventure you just got back from, or a conversation you had with a friend.

Something that made you feel fully satisfied and complete in the doing of it and the thinking back upon it.

Now, go back to those three bullet points I shared initially.

Do you feel the same or different?

One feeling is a feeling of alignment with your integrity, and the other does not.

Listen to AwakenYou in your marriage, Episode 110, Integrity, and why your marriage feels unaligned with Leslie Canup. You'll discover how to do an integrity check-in with yourself and find alignment.
Founder of Canup Coaching, Certified Coach Leslie Canup lives life with her husband of 20+ years and her three kids of different ages and stages. Her passion for leaders started in 2006 with a concert and a conversation with her dad. Fast forward; she combined her faith, passion and personal experience of living in the unexpected so she could serve leaders in personal crisis.

Empowering these leaders to regain their energy, strength, clarity and control.

So they can lead at their highest. even when their life is flipped upside down and they are living at their lowest.

AwakenYou in Your Marriage - These Lies Are Ruining Your Marriage

These Lies Are Ruining Your Marriage

AwakenYou in Your Marriage

play

03/14/23 • 20 min

Most likely, you currently, or have in the past, believed a version of each of the lies I talk about this week in AwakenYou in your marriage.

In the magical event that you have never fallen for any of these lies, take some time to pay attention to the words you hear others speak about their marriage or the influences you expose yourself to:

  • in that series you're currently wrapped up in
  • in the ads that run through your subconscious mind while watching those mini-series
  • in the movies you watch
  • in the social posts you follow

Perfectionism.

A constant state of love.

No disagreements.

Marriages are meant to terminate because lasting love is impossible.

This week I'll share a few of these lies, seven as a starting point, and help you start questioning the validity of these lies, and then I'll help you consider something else you might prefer to believe.

I will also share why believing these lies kills your marriage and ultimately has you getting the opposite of what you desire.

Listen to AwakenYou in your marriage, Episode 109, These Lies Are Ruining Your Marriage, and decide whether you want to continue to believe them or if you're ready for something different.
What lie do you want to dispel?

02/21/23 • 32 min

Are you carrying all the load?

What do you do when it seems as though all the household management tasks fall in your lap?

I hear so many women talk about this relational dynamic which is killing their enthusiasm for life and, surprisingly, their relationship.

For most of them, it was a decision early on in their relationship, a decision they were on board with.

Until they weren't.

If this sounds a bit like something you're struggling with in your relationship, think back to how this dynamic started and how it got to where it is today.

How have you co-created this dynamic?

Listen, I was right there with you, so I am not knocking how you got here, but I want to help you get out of this messy place you're in.

That is what this week's episode of AwakenYou in your marriage is all about:

  • I will help you see what is happening in this dynamic or any dynamic where you're feeling resentment, anger or frustration with your spouse
  • Then I share how to put together a plan to address this situation without blaming them for the problem AND without putting all of the blame on yourself
  • Learning how to work together to create a plan that is a win-win for you while bringing the two of you closer together

Does a trip to the tropics in the middle of a long cold winter help warm up your soul enough to make the season manageable?

What would it be like if that could work the same in your marriage when it seems things need a slight thawing?

I think it works the same in relationships as it does with seasons.

Imagine Minnesota winters ALL YEAR LONG 🥶.

A short trip to Florida won't do much to thaw you out.

Now, apply that same concept to your marriage.

BUT, what if you could bring some of the heat of the tropics into your marriage for more than a few days?

Now that's worth investing in!

This week I dive into 6 EASY things you can start doing TODAY to bring some heat and connection back into your marriage, no matter how long it's been since you've seen the heat of summer.

AwakenYou in Your Marriage - Developing Better Communication with Jane Copier
play

01/24/23 • 47 min

The center of most relationship problems is an inability to communicate what you want so that your partner can actually hear what you say.

If you want to do something fun with your spouse on Valentine's Day but haven't done anything since 2010, and you're bitter about it, then you need a plan to get what you want.

If you want more help with the household chores but you've been doing them all yourself for years, and you're full of resentment, then you'll need a plan to get what you want.

If you want to spend more time getting to know your spouse but have made other things a priority, and you feel silly bringing the topic up, then you need a plan to get what you want.

Developing Great Communication with your spouse is a skill you can learn, and it's the topic of discussion this week with Jane Copier; listen to our conversation and start implementing new communication techniques today!

AwakenYou in Your Marriage - One Crucial Element To Good Marital Communication
play

01/17/23 • 18 min

Try explaining something you don't understand; you can't do it without laughing or wanting to cry.

Let me explain.

You're in a funk, but you're not sure why; I mean, life is going really well right now; you should be partying like it's 1999!

You can't explain it to your spouse, so you withdraw, which could be understood through their lenses as you're mad at them for doing something wrong.

Nothing gets resolved, and you continue to distance yourselves to avoid feeling awful.

This is not good communication, but it's what happens in the lives of many couples.

What do you do about this problem? Learning to communicate well is a start, but you need to start practicing something else before communicating well.

First, I want to tell you to relax. This is going to feel so much better than trying to explain the unexplainable to your spouse!

This crucial step starts with you, like most things we do here in AwakenYou in your marriage, so tune into this week's episode, which is all about the One Crucial Element To Good Marital Communication.Show webpage: www.christinebongiovanni.com/101

AwakenYou in Your Marriage - How To Set & Achieve Your Relationship Goals
play

01/10/23 • 25 min

Sure, you can ask Google how to set relationship goals, and you will get all sorts of information; try it!
Maybe you even take a stab at one or two of the suggestions you discover.
You might quickly discover the Google suggestion felt awful and awkward, and your spouse didn't respond as you hoped.
Maybe you've already given these tactics a go, and your new year healthy eating goals lasted longer than a repeat of a tactic that left you feeling less than loved and desired.
Why are relationship goals so difficult?
My simple answer is this: we're talking about matters of the heart.
When it comes to matters of the heart, most of us will go to extremes to protect our hearts from getting hurt.
But, on this week's AwakenYou in your marriage episode...
EPISODE 100, BTW!!!!! 🥳
I am going to help you start taking steps toward the goal of creating a marriage that has your heart asking for more.

AwakenYou in Your Marriage - The First Phase To Turning Your Marriage Around
play

04/25/23 • 32 min

The first step to healing your marriage is probably not the first thing that would come to mind when you're unhappy in your marriage.
The first place most people turn when unhappy in their marriage is their spouse.

They tell their spouse they're unhappy; usually, the spouse is not surprised because they're not happy either, and they need to see a counselor.
Not an entirely bad idea, but usually, that means that the problem they are trying to solve is within their spouse.
This will NOT end well.
Trying to get your spouse to change is a solution that will never last; that's why in AwakenYou, we start with ourselves.
This is the easiest way to start because we get to work on ourselves without trying to drag our spouses along.
It's the most effective way to start because your spouse will see the change and growth you are experiencing, and it will impact how they interact with you...in a way that will get you precisely what you've been wanting.
This week in AwakenYou in your marriage, Episode 115: The First Phase To Turning Your Marriage Around, I share how you can begin to feel better in your marriage without dragging your spouse into a therapist's office.
