Finding Joy in Marriage & Motherhood, Janet Quinlan – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Through the years, I have coached, interviewed, and reached out to people to ask for their experiences with their daughter-in-law or mother-in-law and, quite frankly, it makes me sad.

The responses I have gotten are 99% negative about their relationship with their in-law.

Why is that? Why are there such issues between two women who love the same man but in different ways?

As I looked at the responses and the complaints of women I coach, I found that there were four critical skills that both women need to develop.

"Love means never having to say you're sorry."  Really?  In this episode I talk about the power of saying, "I'm sorry" -  how it can change the course of a relationship AND change you as a person.

This episode airs on the Feast of the Assumption of Mary, the Mother of Jesus – when Mary was taken up into heaven to be with her son.

And so while so many moms in my audience are going through the chaos of back-to-school, I thought I’d record this episode as a reminder to all of us, that we have in Mary, the mother of Jesus, the perfect role model of the woman, the wife and mother, and the friend we are called to be.

For my non-Catholic friends in the audience, I want to explain why Catholics and many other Christians honor Mary.

Spoiler Alert!  You have what it takes!
Our days are so busy that we sometimes move from one day to the next without really any consideration of who we are, how WE behave (we’re so focused on how the children behave), and what kind of mother we are.  

It’s good to stop, think and pray about the woman we are, how we interact with our children, and how we can become a better mom.  

If you’re like most mamas, there are probably habits or attitudes that need to be tweaked.

It’s amazing how quickly we change from nurturing a love with excitement, tenderness, empathy, affection, humor, and passion to “married, now let’s move on with life”.  As I grew older, I realized how much a part of me had been dormant in our marriage – maybe out of necessity, because after all life IS busy and children ARE demanding, but I wanted to be his bride again.

Marriage is a life-long mission. It is a God-given, life-giving mission.  When we look at our marriage through that lens, it becomes much different than what the world wants you to believe it is.  Marriage isn’t about fulfilling our needs (although our needs are fulfilled when we’re living an authentic friendship with each other).  It is about choosing to love. Choosing to see his perspective over mine, making the choice to forgive him even when I don’t want to. Putting our husband first before children, family, friends, and activities. Some days, that’s easy. But other days it is an active choice we must make – choosing to let go of our wants, our will, our desires and seeking out what would make our spouse happy – his thoughts and wishes.
