In this episode, we're diving into a crucial topic: victim energy in marriage. If you've ever felt stuck, unheard, or helpless in your relationship, this conversation is for you.

We're breaking down what victim energy looks like, how it silently erodes connection, and—most importantly—how you can shift from feeling (and thinking) powerless to stepping into grace-filled strength. We'll explore practical ways to embrace personal responsibility, foster empathy, and encourage each other to step out of that victim energy in your marriage.

What are these gifts? What does it look like to step into your masculine or feminine gifts? Why is this so important for growth?

We discuss all this and more in today's episode!
