Every Thursday, I gather with members of the Love Workout Gold Community for training and live coaching sessions. These meetings are consistently enriching, fostering an environment where we openly share truths with one another. This Thursday, I was impressed again so deeply with this truth. We all CRAVE for LOVE! We want to be valued…

There are a few things that kill the connection between a couple. Here they are: All these are one: FEAR!! To strengthen your connection, you must risk one of the above. It is the ONLY way to experience real joy and real love. If you want to know more about strengthening the connection with your…

I have read a lot of love and marriage books! Here are 5+1 from my library! Don’t hesitate to share some titles with me. But don’t forget that it is more important to take action on what you already know than to keep getting and storing information. Here they are (in no specific order): Blessings…

When you hear “I love you”. What do you hear? Do you hear: “I desire the best for you”? “I will always do whatever I can to see that you are well’? “You are very precious to me”? “You are free to be yourself around me. Even with your flaws”? These are what we hope…

2 days ago, I shared with you that we all bring great things into our marriages. But we also bring emotional wounds. My friend, do you remember all the good things you have? Sometimes we need to be reminded of how much we are worth! My dear friend! You are Priceless! Why? Because that is…

When you got married, you brought a lot of good things into the union. Your spouse brought some too!!! But you also brought some emotional wounds!! Marriages struggle when there is a clash of emotional wounds. And marriages break when one person decides that the other person’s baggage is too much to bear. What can…

Here is a comment from my Facebook page some weeks ago. Obviously, Michael feels hurt, cheated, and taken for granted. He no longer believes in marriage because of his experience with the legal implications of marriage. He has forgotten that: Marriage is a covenant that says all that is mine is yours and yours are…

Maybe yours is no longer a baby! Have you considered that when you got married, you and your spouse had a new baby called your marriage? If you feed your marriage, it will grow into a fruitful adult. And if you neglect your marriage, It will die. Before it dies, it shows all sorts of…

Every day I hear the same things from different people. And what they say reminds me of this story about the fall. The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate.” Gen 3:12 ESV “I am not happy because my wife is…

Have you realized that it is much easier to say, “You are always working.” “You don’t think about us”. “You never notice me”. Than to say, “I miss you”? “I always love it when someone tells me how beautiful I am”? “I wish I could go watch a movie with a special person from time…

Love and Gratitude go together! When you love, you see the best in the object of your love, You also see their weaknesses but you can bear with them. When I am coaching a person struggling in their marriage, I cannot help but notice that they minimize the strengths of their spouse. And exaggerate the…

I found a book with this title on my Facebook feed yesterday. The title is an apt description of what I have coached some people through in my program. So I bought the audiobook immediately. Don’t we all need to learn how to hug a porcupine? Although the book was written from a secular point…

We all want to be loved. We want to be valued for who we are. We want to be free to be all we were created to be. We want people to see us beyond our errors and failures. We crave emotional connection with at least one person. But we don’t know how to get…

I believe the devil will do anything to stop a believer from being effective. That includes you, your spouse and your children (if applicable). The pain of hurtful words, uncaring attitudes, wasteful behaviors, spiritual immaturity, emotional disconnection and otherwise are being used by the devil for one purpose. To slow you down and if possible…

One of the major keys to joy in life (not only marriage) is the ability to forgive quickly. If you learn to forgive quickly, you will find that you are constantly moving forward, and hurt feelings will not keep you bound for days, weeks, months, or even years. Take note that to forgive is not:…

That you have God’s unfailing and unrelenting love within you? … God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us. Romans 5:5 ESV. This God’s love in you can overcome unimaginable hardship and fill you with unspeakable joy! But most of us do not enjoy it…

Changing your marriage could be as simple as: Waking up every morning and saying, Good morning darling…(with a hug or kiss) to your spouse… Regardless of what happened or did not happen yesterday! I know that it’s simple but not easy (Do you know why?). Blessings. -Ade

Do you know that you can change your marriage simply by changing your view of marriage? If you see your spouse as a gift from God, it can help you recognize that the challenges and past traumas they bring into the marriage are just facets of the overall treasure they also bring with them. Instead…
