    Jun 11 2025

    Marriage coach Amber Bryant thought she wanted her husband to lead their family - until he actually started doing it, and she realized she was terrified. This shocking moment of self-discovery launched her into understanding why so many women unknowingly sabotage the very thing they've been praying for in their marriages. When Eileen Noyes shares her own journey from controlling every aspect of her marriage to learning biblical submission, both women uncover a startling truth: the very control they thought was protecting them was destroying their relationships. This episode exposes how past trauma creates invisible armor that sabotages present love, why questioning your husband's decisions sends a message you never intended, and the two areas where releasing control feels most impossible. Amber explains why biblical femininity isn't weakness but the key to genuine influence, while Eileen opens up about spending months in victim mode before finally taking responsibility for her own healing.

    Jun 4 2025
    Eileen Noyes gets brutally honest about feeling crushed by the demands of motherhood while trying to balance her calling as an author and podcaster. As end-of-school chaos threatens to derail her work on a Proverbs 31 devotional, she discovers that sometimes the best business strategy is stepping back and focusing on what matters most. In this vulnerable solo episode, Eileen shares her struggle with wanting to quit when everything feels like too much, and how God redirected her attention back to her eight children during the summer transition.

Eileen walks through 10 practical ways to bless your kids during busy seasons, including why she now takes her children out of school for special one-on-one time and how she learned to say sorry when she messes up as a parent.
