Gelling your gift with your spouse's gifts can be one of the most challenging feats in marriage...OH BUT when it happens- it's golden! The thing is, gelling gifts don't happen by ACCIDENT, it requires intentional work and diligence. Otherwise, we will sit on the gifts God has given us access to THROUGH our spouse and work harder than necessary...ridiculous. In this episode of the Marriedpreneur Life podcast we're sharing simple steps you two can take immediately to start going deeper with gelling your gifts for highest impact!

You can't appreciate what you don't understand!! I remember when we would get so irritated with each other over B A S I C stuff. It was stuff like, how the other person did something, WHY we did it that way and why not do it a different way, etc. (it was a mess!) Tapping into each other's gifts is the gateway to appreciating HOW our spouse functions. It isn't too difficult to learn what your spouse's gifts are. In fact, we are ALL pretty aware of the obvious ones well before we even get married- usually, it's their gifts that attract us to one another in the FIRST place! However, sometimes we overlook the most powerful gifts we have in our marriage and end up paying for it in (unnecessary) headaches and wasted time. We'd like to share with you how what litmus test we use to I.D. our own gifts and tap into our spouse's gifts. #Issa game changer! When we start understanding the importance of your spouse's gifts in your marriage AND business, it's easier to start celebrating those differences and walk as the pow

Breakthrough comes from breaking bad beliefs. The thing about our limiting beliefs is that often we don't even KNOW that we have them.

In this episode of the Marriedpreneur Life podcast, we're sharing how the explosive impact of awareness can transform how you do everything in life! You're going to walk away with not just awareness but the tools to up level your belief systems which will have the same impact on everything else your connected to! #WereGoingUp
