I'm still learni...

When Mona was approached by her husband, she couldn't believe her ears.  His unfaithfulness was a complete surprise.

My story... Basically this is a show I wish I had listened to YEARS ago! We all have ideas of what we'd like our husbands to do. But for many of us we have a very faulty tactic. Instead of feeling cared for, romanced and cherished, we feel resentful, angry, and alone. This is my story. How I started in marriage, what changed and what has happened. Now, who my husband has become is quite incredible...

We're listening in to the second half of my interview with Ruth about what it means to let our husband journey alongside us. And be united at the...
