Mini Series:  The Influence of a Wife in God’s Design Ep 2

Many wives say they want to influence their husbands—but unknowingly move into control.

Influence invites growth. Control pressures it.

In this episode, Chelsey explains the critical difference between godly influence and subtle manipulation, and why trying to manage your husband’s growth can actually suffocate the leadership you’re hoping to see.

Chelsey Holm | the Wife Coach
"
I help Christian wives surrender fully, live Spirit-led, and be set apart according to God’s design in marriage, motherhood, and life."

Ready for a next step?

If this episode stirred something deeper and you’re ready to move from insight into surrender, I created a short guided experience called From Awareness to Surrender.

This mini course includes three short teachings, a guided exercise, and a prayer recorded over you to help you stop cycling and start responding differently—rooted in surrender, not striving.
