Have you believed the lie that if you looked better, your marriage would be better? Have you fallen prey to the marketers who tell you that you'll capture your husband's attention if you just lose some weight or get some surgery? Author and Christian body image coach Heather Creekmore discusses what to do if you really want to get a man's attention in a relationship or marriage. The good news is that her suggestions have nothing to do with changing one's physical appearance. Instead, we have to look at root issues like control and pride and the subtle, insidious ways they hide in the ways we treat our husbands. Even if you don't think you're controlling and have never wrestled pride, you may find Heather's examples helpful. If you feel stuck in your marriage and are wondering how you can change things, Heather's practical suggestions at the end of the episode may help you get your man's attention and get on the path to a healthier marriage. **If you feel afraid in your marriage or are suffering from abuse of any kind, please seek help from a Christian counselor, pastor, or someone who can support and advise you in real life.

#169// One of the questions I get asked the most by ambitious, Jesus girls looking to launch into something new is, "So, how do I get my husband on board with this?"As a multi-passionate woman who wants to do #allthethings while being mindful of my marriage and family, it can feel a little tricky at times to keep everything in balance. This is especially true when I feel the Lord nudging me to start something new with Him that will require me to carve out some time, energy and effort from somewhere else to apply to the new thing. This is generally where it becomes apparent that I'll need to be having a conversation with the hubs. You been there?Even if your husband is super supportive of everything you dream up to do, he's likely still going to have questions and even possibly some concerns when it comes to your shifting time, energy and effort around.

In today's episode with Dana Che, we hear about her own marriage testimony, about the marital problems she and her husband faced, and how they overcame them through the help of the Holy Spirit. We touch on the differences between marriage counseling and therapy versus marriage coaching. Ultimately each are important in different times and seasons. However, the main difference is counseling is talking about the problem, and coaching is finding solutions and results for the goals you have as a couple. We dive into the question of how to get your husband to go to marriage counseling. The main question is why do you want your husband to go, what are the issues your marriage is facing, and can they be addressed through other means? Once we know our goal, we can work our way backwards to get there. Men are often reluctant to go to counseling, but they may be open to reading a book together, listening to a podcast, or going to dinner with another couple who may provide insight into your situation. If your marriage absolutely needs outside help, allow your husband to be a part of the process in choosing a counselor. Put the ball in his court. If he isn't interested, offer some suggestions and let him choose. If he is adamant against it, this is where prayer comes in. Pray for God to change your spouse's heart, continue to love your husband right where he is, and allow the Holy Spirit to soften that hard heart. Ultimately it's up to God's timeline. We can't control our husbands, and will waste so much time trying to. Rather, we should suggest turning the focus on yourself, on ways you can improve and relinquishing that control over to God. In both of our testimonies as well as countless others, the change didn't come until we let go, and let God. You can Follow Dana Che on Instagram and her website. Wait!!! Before you go!

Hey sweet mama! I see you trying to raise your babies, run a successful business, manage your home, and keep your marriage from falling apart all without losing your ever-loving mind. I believe that marriages thrive when spouses prioritize each other and communicate effectively with each other.When men don't feel replaced by the kids, and women feel supported and don't carry the burdens of the home and the children on their own, the family operates more like a connected team, everyone is more pleasant to be around, the family has more fun together, and everyone feels more appreciated and fulfilled.Which is why I'm so happy to be here today to share with you The #1 Connection Killer In Marriages & How To Get Your Husband To Help Out More The official Joyful Mamahood Community: www.facebook.com/groups/joyfulmamahoodRegister for the Less Stress, More Joy: Cultivate the Holiday Season You've Been Dreaming of here... https://bit.ly/joyfulmamaholidaysMy Website: http://kimmaclin.comWork with me: http://bit.ly/kimmaclinFollow me on Instagram http://instagram.com/joyful_mamahoodFollow me on Facebook http://facebook.com/kimmaclincoachingConnect with me at Kim@kimmaclin.com

Listen in to hear why the modern mother feels like she needs to be the one calling all of the shots regarding child-rearing and how to stop that behavior in its tracks before it's too late. 025 | Brenna Ruiz of What About Mamas Sometimes, as mothers, we feel that we need to do it all. And when we let someone else - a partner, family member, hired support - we feel the urge to hover and dictate how things should look. You might even fall into the trap of thinking that you - as the mother - are the only one qualified enough to care for your child, because, if you don't, something could go "wrong." That is maternal gatekeeping. Brenna Ruiz (a mom blogger and self-care advocate) and I take a deep dive into stigmas surrounding maternal gatekeeping. Including how we can stop ourselves from falling into the trap and what we can do to communicate better and advocate for ourselves. We also talk about how it really does take a village to raise a child. Brenna also shares her experiences to show us what maternal gatekeeping can do to a relationship and how motherhood doesn't look the same for everyone. About Brenna As a self-care advocate, professional writer, and mom of one from Minnesota, Brenna started her blog, What About Mama's, after having no idea how to take care of herself after having her son. Topics covered 1:24 | What is Maternal Gatekeeping? 5:22 | Letting go of the control of maternal gatekeeping 12:54 | The breaking point 19:53 | This is on you 23:29 | The kids are alright 27:16 | Recovering from burnout 31:28 | Final question for Brenna Additional resources Connect with Brenna on her website, whataboutmamas.com.

After lots of messages from the last episode about “toxic husbands” a lot of you asked how you could change your husband so that he can support you as you work on your business or health goals and also have him change and work on personal development too. If you're in a season of your life where you are doing the work to become who you want to be and you want your husband to do the same, but he's not doing it, then you'll want to listen in to learn what may be preventing him from showing you that support. We're also talking about how you can continue to work on yourself and reach your goals if you never get that support. xoxo, Jeannet Connect with Jeannet: Private Coaching: Do you need life, mindset, or business coaching?

I see you, making excuses for him when he doesn't show up to church, a family event, or an invitation to a friends house. I see you. searching for community, trying, what it seems like - all on your own to build a stronger faith foundation in your home. I see you mama, trying to keep it quiet because you don't wan't anyone thinking bad about your husband. He is a good man. He loves you. He loves your kids. You just wish he would show up in more new areas - like pray for the family, lead the family, show the loving soft heart of Jesus towards others. You want to show love and grace to your husband, despite feeling frustrated, hurt and disappointed. My story is your story. From being abandoned by my husband for my faith to reconciling and leading ministry together, to making excuses again, I have been there. The most important thing I've learned is this: Being a grace fueled wife means a commitment to continue working on the marriage EVEN IF he isn't showing up. It means being in constant prayer for your husband and surrendering the final outcome of your marriage to God. But when happens when you're tired? You're tired of taking care of everything around the house. You just wish your husband would help you out more but don't know how to ask, or don't want to nag him yet again. Here are three things you can do to empower your husband to take care of you! This will leave you feeling more supported and less resentful!

One way I learn is by reading. I read the Bible and books by people who inspire. I listen to podcasts that make me think. And then I share all this wonderful knowledge with you! We have to keep growing every day. We have to keep filling our minds with encouragement and surrounding ourselves with those who encourage. Struggles WILL come. It's how we prepare for them that matters. It's how we react to them that matters more. Our kids are going to test our patience. our husbands are going to make us madder than a hornet and life may feel like it's spinning out of control. Let's not be caught unaware and unprepared.Each day I share with you my thoughts as I work through these things right alongside of you. Today is no different.

But it didn’t work for me and it didn’t work for the listener who sent it in either.
On today’s episode I share: 4 powerful ways to get your man to be attentive. You shouldn’t have to be ignored!

But her relationship has come a long way since then and now her husband gives her lots of attention and calls her on his way home from work. She’s going to tell us exactly what she did that attracted her husband’s attention.

This week we’re going to talk about being intentional. Y’all, it’s easier said than done. So many people just go through life without doing things on purpose. What Happened When I Got Intentional I need to tell you about a time that I was not so intentional. When I graduated from high school, I very excitedly got out of the state of Tennessee where I had grown up and attended the University of Central Florida. I went for the great business school and the beautiful campus, but I didn’t really participate with the school side of things. Let’s just say, I loved the beach more than I did class. And my grades showed it. I wasn’t intentional with my time or my studying, and at the end of my first semester of my sophomore year, I had a 1.4 GPA. YIKES! Y’all, it wasn’t that I wasn’t smart and willing to work hard—I just didn’t focus. But here comes the good news. When I decided to transfer to the University of Tennessee—to spare my mother the out of state tuition and because I realized I wanted to return to Tennessee after college—something amazing happened! They accepted my credits but didn’t carry my GPA over from UCF. I got a clean slate. And I ran with it! I got really serious. I stayed late, I did extra credit, and I went the extra mile. At the end of my sophomore year, my first semester at UT, I got a 4.0. All because I was intentional. It’s so easy to just get by. It’s so easy to let life happen and just spend our time reacting instead of acting. I want us to do something different. I want us to be intentional and do things on purpose. Things will not happen for you in life; you have to make things happen. 5 Areas of Your Life to Be Intentional 1. Be Intentional With Your Marriage I read this a few weeks ago on Twitter: “If you want what you used to have, you have to do what you used to do.” What did you used to do in your marriage? It is so easy for our marriages to become businesses. You and your spouse did not fall in love over the cable bill, or kid’s schedules, or determining who was going to pick up the dry cleaning. Before the busyness of kids and errands and all the to-do lists, you and your spouse probably just had fun together. In my life, there are things that Matt and I used to love to do. We still do those things, because we schedule time to do them. We put it on the calendar. If you wait for those things to happen, they will never happen, because life will get in the way. What do you and your spouse love to do together? Those things don’t have to slip away. Life gets busy, but don’t let your marriage become an afterthought. Be intentional with your marriage and see how it changes things for you, your spouse and even your kids! Related: Ep. 49 — How to Get Your Husband on Board With Your Business 2. Be Intentional With Your Parenting In any area of our lives, it’s easy to be reactive instead of proactive, but this seems particularly tempting with kids. Admittedly, I have two kids and they are fairly young, and I’m learning with many of you. But I’ve noticed that we, as moms, spend a lot of time reacting. We react to school and sport schedules. We react to what other parents are doing. We react to handling their behavior. We react to dealing with tough situations. Trust me, I know parenting is hard. But we’re going to spend the energy regardless, so we might as well spend it on the front end, shaping our kids proactively, rather than always reacting to whatever life throws at us. Being intentional with what you want your kids to know, feel, do and experience doesn’t have to look like holding yourself to an impossible standard of perfection. Just do things on purpose; it’s amazing how our kids will get it. Related: Ep. 8 — How to Deal with Mom Guilt 3. Be Intentional With Your Business You can’t float by in your business and wonder why you didn’t reach your goals. Success won’t happen if you don’t do things on purpose. If you don’t start with the end in mind, you’ll cross someone else’s finish line. In business, like all areas of your life, being intentional means setting goals. It means putting things on paper on purpose. How much money do you want to make? How much do you want to grow your email list? How many new clients do you want to gain? How much do you want to grow your social media platform? Decide what you want and what you need to do to get there! Start with the end in mind and then start breaking it down into small, tangible actions to get there. Be intentional in your business and you will build a business you love. Related: Ep. 38 — Hitting Big Goals By Winning Small 4. Be Intentional With Your Body You get one body. One. That’s it. Take care of your body by working it out, drinking water, and eating things that are nutritious and give you energy. It’s about finding balance and seeking to be healthy. Being intentional and doing things on purpose with your body also means loving it. Not loving it because it’s perfect and you look like a supermodel. No, it’s loving and celebrating your body for the things it does for you. For the fact that it’s already beautiful, strong and amazing! You get a choice. You can love your body or you can constantly think about what’s wrong with it. You can treat it well or you can neglect it. You get one body. Love it on purpose. Related: Ep. 47 — Mom Entrepreneurs: Finding Success in Business and Motherhood 5. Be Intentional With Your Time The bad news is that being intentional in all of the above areas take time—which is something I’d be willing to bet you already don’t feel like you have a lot of. But the good news is that you have more time than you think. You can’t do everything, but you can do the most important things. Maybe you won’t get to be a part of every club and organization or take on every project that sounds fun. But for me, if I already have an amazing marriage, rock star kids, a thriving business, and a strong body, then I’m fine to say no to some other things. I don’t want to do everything; I just want to be awesome at a few really important things. Stephen Covey says, “The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing.” These are my main things. Yours might be different, and that’s okay. Figure out what’s most important to you and be intentional with those things.

Over the last few decades, Dave Ramsey has been incredibly generous in sharing his story to help millions of people find hope. He helps people take control of their personal finances, change their family tree, become better leaders, build their businesses and so much more.

Dave truly uses his impressively growing platform of over 15 million daily listeners to serve people. He pays attention to where people are hurting and meets them where they are.

He will be speaking about one of the biggest pain points that business owners have: money! In this episode, Dave Ramsey shares his wisdom on how to be intentional in your life. You’ll learn: The mistakes and misunderstandings around what it means to be intentional Areas to focus on and practical steps to take to start seeing results How small-business owners can be intentional in with money Related: How to Have More Time Make an Intentional Decision to Build Your Business Debt-Free I want to take a quick second to talk about an area of your business that you might not be approaching with intentionality: finances. It’s so tempting to build your business by taking out debt. Here is what many people don’t see: business debt is YOUR debt. Someone has to pay the bills at the end of the day, and that person is you, not “the business.” (You ARE the business!) Instead of trying to accelerate your business by using debt, I want to encourage you to grow slow. Start with what you have and take your time to use your profits from the business to reinvest in the business. I’ll bet you’ll find that you don’t need half of what you think you do. Don’t handcuff yourself to those payments. Nothing will take the joy out of your business like debt. There are so many people who have been in your shoes and have built thriving business without taking out debt. You’ve got this! Don’t forget that I love hearing from you!

This has to be one of the most common questions I get emailed about. Turns out, if you can take a little time to understand why men or women react differently to the idea of counseling, then you can dial in your approach to help you and your spouse get the help you need! Researchers estimate that at any point in time, in America, around 20% of marriages will be experiencing significant distress[i]. That’s a lot! It speaks to how much of our struggle is hidden from sight and from family, In fact, 28% of divorcing couples do not confide in family members about their marital problems prior to divorcing. And 63% of divorcees do not attend any kind of relationship counseling prior to divorce. Further, couples who do seek help wait an average of six years before doing so[ii]. That needs to change: there’s help available. Unfortunately, popular media has made divorce appear cheap and easy and they fail to disclose the real emotional, relational, spiritual and financial costs of divorce. So today we’re going to be talking about how to get your spouse into marriage counseling. This isn’t just an ad for our own virtual counseling agency but a research-based discussion about how to overcome this challenge effectively without being manipulative or sneaky. Why Do Couples NOT Seek Help? First, there are practical concerns: things like feeling there is a lack of time and money. Sometimes it is just a lack of awareness that good help can be had. And, in some cases, if you’re in a rural area there may seem to be a lack of available services. Although the increasing number of virtual agencies such as hours has done a lot to fill that need. Second, there’s often a stigma around seeking help for your marriage. Especially for men. Men tend to act more self-reliant and more in control and so we’re less inclined to seek help regarding emotional issues. Researchers note that typical masculine beliefs such as self-reliance and emotional suppression are negatively correlated to a willingness to get help. So the stronger those things are in a guy’s character, the less willing he will be to get help. Typically. One study even found that most men would only consider marital counseling appropriate in situations relating to divorce or abuse[iii]. Obviously, we think there’s a lot of other reasons you’d want to consider counseling: hopefully before you get to a place where divorce is on the table. Of course, women are not immune to stigma either. Seeking marriage counseling can be seen as an admission that your marriage is failing. That’s a difficult admission. That requires you to recognize the seriousness of your problems and open yourself up to scrutiny. Some even fear that getting counseling may be dangerous to the relationship: by admitting how serious the problems are, you may feel that you are signaling the end of the relationship[iv]. So taking that step towards counseling is certainly courageous. There are other variables too. Women are much more likely to want to seek help than men. Interestingly, older couples are generally more willing to seek external help. That fits what I see in my practice: I think the statistic is that half of divorces (not marriages) occur in the first 7 years of marriage. I rarely see couples in counseling in the single digits of their marriage. And yet, that’s a great time to do counseling: taking the step of spotting your challenges early and getting help before they become massive issues can save you a lot of trouble later on down the line. There are also socioeconomic factors: couples who are more well off, and couples who are more highly educated are more likely to seek marriage counseling, presumably due to being more aware of the benefits it can offer, and having the financial resources to utilize it. Of course, money doesn’t have to be a limitation: learning to budget and making this a priority in your spending can help you overcome any financial barriers. Your marriage is definitely worth investing in...
Over the past three years, one of my most favorite things has been meeting women at Business Boutique events all across the country who are there for one reason: Their husbands bought them a ticket. Y’all, let’s take a second. How amazing is that? This crazy, wonderful, exhilarating journey of chasing their dream started because someone—an incredibly supportive husband, in this case—believed in them. That right there is a dream in and of itself. And believe me, I know. I have one of those rock star husbands too. Is Your Husband on Board With Your Business? My husband is my confidant, my teammate, my number one fan—but even he can get overwhelmed by yet another one of my big ideas. Any dreamers out there? Y’all know exactly what I’m talking about. But you know what I’ve discovered? Usually when that happens, it’s because I simply didn’t give him enough information or enough time to process it all. Or, let’s be honest, maybe in my excitement, I jumped all the way from A to Z and just plain scared him! The good news is it’s possible to get even the most hesitant husband interested and on board with your business. (Really!) The best place to start? Take a look at the way you talk to him about your business. What Is the Best Way to Talk to My Husband About My Business? Here’s the deal: A big dream calls for one heck of a powerful communication strategy, whether you’re talking to your customers or your very own spouse. If you want to get your husband on board with your business, you have to first help him understand the meaning behind your work. And I’ve got three tips to help you do just that. In this episode, I’ll talk about the importance of: Explaining your why Asking your husband what he needs Showing him the ways your business brings you joy Related: Ep. 7—How to Build Your Business and Still Have a Life at the Same Time My Guest This Week Is My Husband, Matt Wright! My guest this week is my very own husband, Matt Wright—also known as my biggest cheerleader. There’s nothing I can’t accomplish with that man by my side. I’m so proud of him, and I’m so proud he’s mine. I am so excited for you all to get to know him a little better—and I’m excited for Matt to tell you what it’s like being married to a woman who is chasing a big business dream. So, Matt and I have been married for six years now, and in all that time, he’s never left me speechless—until a few weeks ago. Now, anyone who knows me or has ever listened to this podcast knows that I’m a talker. I am not what you’d call quiet. Or shy—at all. One could say that I have a lot to say, a lot of the time. Shocking, I know! I recently asked Matt what he thinks is the best way for a woman to get her husband on board with her business. Y’all, his answer blew me away. Without hesitation, he explained, “I think husbands should support our wives because that’s our responsibility. If you’re married, it’s your responsibility to support one another.” What?! He totally called out men to do the right thing. And I love him for it. I also love that he offered a completely different perspective that had never occurred to me. That’s invaluable. But let’s be honest: Actions speak louder than words. And sometimes competing responsibilities, other commitments, kids, and everyday life just get in the way. That’s why I wanted Matt to share his thoughts on specific ways for your spouse to become more interested—more personally invested—in your business. In this podcast, Matt and I will talk about: Looking for common threads in both your businesses so you can help one another Respecting your husband’s feelings as they relate to your business The best ways to manage expectations and become a true team How to make your husband still feel like a priority in your life Thinking about your business from your husband’s perspective What Do I Do If My Husband Doesn’t Support My Dream? In a perfect world, every single woman chasing a dream would have a supportive husband behind her. Sadly, I know that’s not the reality for everyone. But it’s never too late for your marriage to become a real partnership. Please believe me when I tell you that. You need to work on changing the dynamic of your relationship to create a new normal around your business. I know you can do it. And I’m going to share four ways to help you gain your husband’s support. If you’re as hard driving as I am, some of these may be a struggle for you. But trust me. They are worth your time and your patience. I have another challenge for you. Have your husband listen to the rest of this episode with you. I’m going to be answering questions from husbands whose wives are pursuing their business dreams just like you. I think it will be extremely informative and helpful for both of you.

Delight Your Marriage | Relationship Advice, Christianity, & Sexual Intimacy
(Part 1) Her husband didn't want to spend time with her. He was apathetic towards her. He would rather watch television than even make love to her. Now he can't keep his eyes and hands off her :) Dancing in the kitchen, less stress and glorious compliments are just side benefits. Laura Doyle's work began a marriage-changing transformation for me. Laura Doyle, best selling author, speaker and coach. The book I love the most: The Surrendered Wife (though I'd prefer to call it "How to Stop Stressing and Start Enjoying" or "How to Get Your Husband to Become The Man of Your Dreams") (If you've listened for a while you'll know I posted this interview over a year ago, but we all need a refresher, so I thought you wouldn't mind if I posted it again!) Find out more about Laura: Lauradoyle.org and getcherished.com And PLEASE read Surrendered Wife. I am incredibly grateful that I did! Its a marriage (and man) changer. delightyourmarriage.com
Stacy Tuschl is a speaker, business coach, and the owner of The Academy of Performing Arts in Wisconsin. She is the author of the book “Is Your Business Worth Saving?” where she reveals proven strategies for pulling entrepreneurs out of a rut and launching them toward business success. If you're considering signing up for an online course, or Mastermind, but you're wondering if it will be worth the money, or if your husband just doesn't see the value in it and that's holding you back, you will really benefit from today's show. Listen in as Stacy dives deeper into the things that you, as an entrepreneur, really need to talk to your husband about, when it comes to investing in online courses. Stacy wants to help you to figure out how you can make it work and how you can get it through to him that these courses really are a great investment. Join her today, as she urges you to talk to your husband and explain things in a way that he can get it and find out how you can get yourself out there, do what you do best and start sharing your talents with the world. Some highlights include: “First, I want you to understand that this is your education you're talking about, right?” At minute 1.18, Stacy puts this kind of investment into perspective. “This year alone, between those two things, I spent like about $56 000 on those two...” From minute 2.18, Stacy explains how much she will bring in, due to having invested that money. “I'm saying that it brought in $20 000 into my business, because of one strategy that I used there.” From minute 3.12, Stacy explains that it's not about how much it costs, but about how much it will make for you. “There is so much more money that I'm putting into my personal development...” From minute 3.49, Stacy explains how much she spends on live events and why it's so well worth it. “I have grown up in a family business and because of that, when I talk about anything about my business, my family gets it.” At minute 4.55, Stacy talks about the advantage of having your family's support when you have a business. “I also married an extremely supportive husband...” From minute 5.24, Stacy explains that her husband trusts her, even if he doesn't understand the specifics of what she's doing and the huge advantage of that for her. “And then you might have somebody who doesn't get it and they're going 'you're nuts for doing this.'” From minute 6.08, Stacy explains that she wants you to figure out how you're going to make this better and not to just give up. “So I purchased an online course for $997 from an online expert. I used the strategy that was sold in that product and my launch that I did, using this strategy, brought in $60 000.” At minute 6.40, Stacy gives an example of something that her husband understood. “So start to educate your husband on things like that.” At minute 7.08, Stacy explains more about how you can go about educating your husband about the value of investing in online courses. “I want you to know that your wife is out there doing what she does best and doing what she loves...” From minute 8.05, Stacy explains to husbands how much their support means to their wives. “Confidence is huge- it's make or break in this space...” At minute 8.27, Stacy talks to husbands about the importance of their wives being confident with what they do. “People are making millions of dollars online every single day...” At minute 9.01, Stacy explains how online products, although often intangible, make a huge difference in people's lives. “If you have the funds to do this on your own, do you need their support? Can you go through with it anyway?” At minute 9.55, Stacy talks about the amazing groups you can join to get support, inspiration, and motivation from other female entrepreneurs.

We have talked about how men can be more supportive to their spouse during and after pregnancy. What if he is not doing it? What is they the guy is clueless? A pain point with women is they often feel their men aren't involved enough. As men, we might not even know what to do. I don't think it's often a conscious choice. However, the last thing on a woman's mind when she is breastfeeding a 3 month old, is that she should cater to the guy's needs. But is she wants him to be more involved and take an active role, it may be up to her to take action. Understand the purpose of this is empowerment to the women. You are able to take charge of the situation. Here are 7 Tips to Get Your Husband More Involved With the Baby: Attention – Try to find a balance time between spouse and child. When the child comes along, men often feel (and are) third in line. Things light date nights are important. Appreciation – Provide him positive re-inforcement. Replace criticism with praise. Understand there is more than just “your way” to do things – When he tries to help, be ok with his method, style, or way of doing things. Do family activities – Go to the park, go for walks, just doing something together. He gets to participate and feel like it's one unit, not you and the baby against him. Have a meeting to divide the labor – Give him tasks like bathing and feeding and write out the chores, and work each other are going to take on. Ask for help – This is basic but yet really difficult for many women. Provide instruction so he knows exactly what is expected. Take time away from …
