Who Should Be Leading Your Marriage?

The Real Marriage Podcast

Who should be leading your marriage?

Should anyone lead a marriage? Isn’t it supposed to be an equal partnership with mutual share of the decision making?

Honestly, it can get complicated quickly. Many of us grew up and saw different things. Maybe you were in a single-parent home where a mom had to really step up and take care of a lot of things on their own. Maybe it was more traditional in the sense that the father felt like he needed to be in control and the decision maker of the house. Many families have one spouse that has a type A personality which can make the other spouse much more quiet and in the background. Of course, some families have it where the wife is far more dominant in the relationship and the man is quiet, subdued and passive.

You can see many variables can be had but what is the right way to go about it?

In this episode we talk through the different ways both spouses can take a leadership role in the family. We discuss the ways it can become a give and take and learning how to get to a place where you can identify what strengths each of you brings to the table where you can allow them to lead in those areas.
