Amanda Davison Podcast

by Amanda Davison

If you’ve ever felt the tension between who you were taught to be and who you truly are, you’re not alone. For years, Amanda Davison spoke about marriage through her work with A Wife Like Me. But after working with thousands of women, a deeper pattern emerged: many women weren’t struggling because they were failing as wives—they were struggling because they had been taught to both silence and neglect themselves.
