E168: Secrets to Reignite Happiness And Love in Your Marriage w/Laura Doyle

The Lila Rose Podcast

What if your marriage feels loveless, and divorce seems like the only option? How do you navigate a relationship when your spouse is unwilling to work on it, caught in addiction, or even unfaithful? And is it really possible to reignite the passion and excitement of the early days of courtship?

In this episode, I sit down with Laura Doyle, bestselling author of The Surrendered Wife: A Practical Guide to Finding Intimacy, Passion, and Peace. With a mission to end world divorce, Laura shares her powerful story of coming to the brink of divorce and the transformative steps she took to turn her marriage around. She reveals practical wisdom inspired by happily married women and how embracing the feminine art of receptivity can empower women to inspire their husbands to step up as heroes in their relationships.

Laura also addresses the challenges of navigating difficult situations and offers actionable advice for rebuilding love and intimacy, even in the toughest circumstances. Don’t miss this insightful and inspiring conversation!
