Happy Sunday, Hubby Hacker Wifey! Today, let’s dive into one of the most powerful tools in your Hubby Hacker Code toolkit: SHIFT+S – Speak Strategically Words have the power to heal or hurt, to build or break. When you choose to Speak Strategically, you’re intentionally using your words to create connection, build trust, and influence the atmosphere of your marriage. Speaking strategically doesn’t mean being manipulative or insincere—it’s about choosing your words thoughtfully to ensure they reflect love, respect, and wisdom, even in challenging situations. Why This Code Matters The Bible reminds us of the power of words in Proverbs 18:21: “The tongue has the power of life and death.” Your words can either bring life into your marriage or cause damage that’s hard to undo. When you Speak Strategically, you’re building a bridge of communication that fosters peace, understanding, and intimacy. How to Apply SHIFT+S in Real Life 1. Pause Before You Speak Take a moment to consider your tone, timing, and message. Ask yourself: • Is this the right time to say this? • How can I say it in a way that builds rather than tears down? Example: Instead of saying, “You never help around the house,” try: “I really appreciate it when you help out—it makes such a difference for me.” 2. Focus on Solutions, Not Blame Replace accusations with collaborative language that invites your husband into the solution. Example: • Blaming: “You’re always late, and it’s so frustrating!” • Strategic: “I know you’re juggling a lot. How can we work together to make sure we’re both on time?” 3. Use “I Feel” Statements Express your emotions without attacking or assuming. Example: Instead of saying, “You don’t care about how I feel,” try: “I feel hurt when my concerns seem dismissed. Can we talk about this?” 4. Affirm Before You Address Begin with something positive before addressing an issue. This softens the conversation and shows you value your husband. Example: Start with, “I love how hard you work for our family,” before discussing a challenge.

Thank you to everyone who joined me last night for our transformational talk on The Art of Marriage! Together, we dived deep into the realities, challenges, and ultimate joys of cultivating a glorious marriage. Here are the highlights from our discussion: 1. Facing the Difficulties of Marriage We uncovered the lies many of us have been told about marriage—unrealistic expectations, misplaced faith, and burdens placed on us by well-intentioned but misguided teachings. I shared my personal journey of frustration as a wife navigating the weight of added “rules” that distracted me from God’s true principles. 2. Faith in God vs. Faith in Man Drawing from Mark 10:27— “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible”—we discussed the trap many wives fall into: relying too much on their husbands and not enough on God. True growth in marriage comes from aligning with Hubby Hacker Code—God’s universal principles—which lay the foundation for love, peace, joy, patience, kindness, and a rekindled attraction to your spouse. 3. The Power of Hubby Hacker Code By implementing God’s principles, we can immediately activate transformation in our marriages. We explored how this “code” brings clarity, connection, and joy, setting the stage for a partnership that thrives. 4. A Life-Changing Opportunity I’m thrilled to announce that enrollment is now open for Hubby Hackers University through The Peaceful Marriage Blueprint. This program, available under the “Classroom” tab in The Art of Marriage app, offers practical tools and insights to help you unlock the true potential of your relationship. Replay Available!
