One of the questions I get asked the most by ambitious, Jesus girls looking to launch into something new is, “So, how do I get my husband on board with this?”
As a multi-passionate woman who wants to do #allthethings while being mindful of my marriage and family, it can feel a little tricky at times to keep everything in balance. This is especially true when I feel the Lord nudging me to start something new with Him that will require me to carve out some time, energy and effort from somewhere else to apply to the new thing. This is generally where it becomes apparent that I’ll need to be having a conversation with the hubs. You been there?
Even if your husband is super supportive of everything you dream up to do, he’s likely still going to have questions and even possibly some concerns when it comes to your shifting time, energy and effort around. You’re going to have to have a conversation, right? Wouldn’t it be good to know how to conduct a conversation like this in such a way that it’s very easy for your husband to hop on board and maybe even help with the transition you’re suggesting?
On this episode of the Positioned to Prosper podcast, I’m sharing four simple yet powerful tips for how to approach a conversation like this with your husband that’ll produce less friction and more agreement. Sound like something that could help? If so, Grab your Bible, your journal and a pen, and . . . Let’s Go!

SCRIPTURE REFERENCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
Proverbs 31:10-31 – The Woman Who Fears the Lord
Romans 8:28
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.
Ephesians 5:25-33
Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish. In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, because we are members of his body. “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church. However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
Ephesians 5:22-24
Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands.
