Ep 30 | The Surrender That Saved My Marriage (And My Health)
from Strength for Generations I Lose Weight, Healthy Diet, Strength Training, Nutrition, Energized · host Christa Baker - Christian Health Coach
What if your struggle with control in your marriage isn't actually about your husband, but about unhealed trauma that's making you sick? What if biblical surrender doesn't mean becoming a doormat, but actually brings healing to both your marriage and your body? Could the very survival instincts that once protected you now be suffocating the love you're trying to build? In this episode, I'm getting vulnerable about my struggle with control and how past trauma turned me into someone who couldn't fully trust the man I loved, and how biblical surrender (not being a doormat) transformed everything so you can learn that when we try to control everything, we're not just hurting our marriages - we're literally making ourselves sick.
