How to Better Understand Your Wife – Part 1: Why She Seems So Frustrated
from Memoirs of an LDS Servant Teacher · host Maurice Harker
Why does your wife seem so upset—about everything? And why does it feel like no matter what you do, she still wants you to fix yourself?In this eye-opening episode, Maurice Harker walks husbands through a common pain point in marriage: trying to understand a wife's emotional experience without falling into the trap of thinking she's the problem. You'll learn why your wife's pain isn't imaginary, why her personal growth space matters, and how not to "accidentally insult her soul" by trying to fix what you don't yet understand.Maurice unpacks the delicate (and often hilarious) balance between timing, bonding, and empathy—especially when one spouse wants connection and the other wants quiet spiritual time. This episode is the first in a powerful series to help men stop guessing and start understanding.Want to read more about this topic? https://www.lifechangingservices.org/gingerbread-man-parable-anger-pain-management/Rather Watch Something? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNc4vXsN9VUCheck out the Marriage Repair Workshops: https://www.lifechangingservices.org/marriage-repair/
