I Used To Be You – How I Stopped Waiting For My Wife To Change

Welcome back to another episode of Man vs. Marriage. If you’re listening right now and you feel like you’re stuck in your marriage… like life just keeps hitting you with one storm after another and you’re wondering how you even got here… I want you to know I used to be you. Ten years into our marriage I was over 380 pounds. Jeanne and I were in full survival mode. Our first 10 years were full of storms — we were just trying to survive the day. It wasn’t all misery. We had glimpses of joy at birthdays and Christmas, but our communication was fractured badly. I was chasing a purpose, wanting to matter, yet in every area of my life I felt like I wasn’t good enough. Jeanne was battling depression and guilt over the health of our children. She was full of fear — fear we wouldn’t have enough food, enough money, and fear that I was going to leave her. My actions were reacting to the fear she was showing, while in reality it was sending a totally different message. I was bound by resentment and becoming bitter with our lack of connection and feeling stuck in my career. But here’s the truth: It didn’t stay that way. And it doesn’t have to stay that way for you either. The turning point came when I realized it wasn’t about waiting on my wife to change — it started with me. In this episode I share how awareness became a weapon, how I learned to live on purpose for a purpose, and the practical steps that helped me move from survival mode to becoming the man I vowed to be.
