POOR LEADERSHIP: WHY YOUR WIFE DOESN’T RESPECT OR ADMIRE YOU
Spoiler Alert: It’s also the reason why intimacy dried up!
You might be a leader out in the world, well respected by other men…
But if you’re not getting the respect and admiration you desire from your wife it’s because you’re not LEADING at home.
...
1. THE PASSIVE LEADER
This might look like being a passive man without a plan…
Giving your wife the burden of decision making responsibility, which she can’t seem to let go of but also deeply resents.
You may be the breadwinner, control the finances and look like you’re the leader in your marriage, however you’ve given up the real responsibility at home and making ‘decisions’ based on your wife’s signals of approval.

2. THE CONTROLLING DICTATOR
On the other hand, your ‘leadership’ may actually be a dictatorship in which her needs and emotions are not taken into consideration at all.
Your ‘rulership’ is based on control, primarily serving the purpose of getting your needs met without risking emotional intimacy.
She’ll looks like she’s submitting to your will, but it’s clear she doesn’t respect you, withholding intimacy as her last source of power and creating chaos through her careless behaviour as a way to express her resentment.

3. AUTHENTIC HUSBAND LEADER
If you resonate with the ‘Passive Leader’ or ‘Controlling Dictator’...
Neither will get you the respect, admiration and intimacy you desire from your wife, but there is a method that will achieve the desired outcome and relationship dynamic you both crave…
In order to win back your wife's respect and desire you need to step into your Authentic Husband Leadership and lead her with…
1. Courage (overcoming your fears)
2. Empathy (opening your heart)
3. Firmness (creating boundaries from instinct)
You don’t need to anticipate her every desire, go through years of therapy, learn ‘attachment style’ or become a ‘sensitive guy’ (please don’t).
You step into your Authentic Husband Leadership by overcoming the fears in your mind and having the courage to live from your natural masculine instinct, while fully connected to your heart.
