"The Empowered Wife" by Laura Doyle

This is a wonderful book for wives or girlfriends. I think the book and this program compliment each other really well.
It's an easy read, inspiring, and the skills she describes help/work immediately both with yourself and with your guy.
For example, my recent panic attack: I was convinced it was my husband's fault for changing plans last minute while we were out as a family. Now I see it a different way.
For one, I realized as part of taking responsibility for my self care, I need to relearn this program.
Two, the skills in the book helped me take the negative focus off my husband. If anything, I owed him an apology for yelling at him & being disrespectful (which I did).
And three, this book is helping me see how important it is to "stay on my own page" and to let go thinking I can control anyone or anything but myself.
There's a lot more to this book but I just wanted to introduce it here and hope I can chat with any other "SWEW" (Surrendered Wife, Empowered Woman) fans!
Trouble and doubt within my marriage has always been a huge stress for me. Now that I'm learning new relationship skills and beginning this program again, I'm already feeling much more secure and hopeful.
