The Connected Wife
Most wives don’t want a perfect marriage.
They want to feel close again.
They want to feel heard, supported, respected, and emotionally safe — especially when their husband is driven, hardworking, and focused on providing.
The Connected Wife is a podcast for wives who love their husbands but feel distant, confused, or unseen at times. It’s for the wife who wants deeper emotional connection and better conversations — without losing herself or walking on eggshells.
Hosted by Kingsley Grant, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Relationship Coach, and communication expert with over two decades of professional experience and nearly four decades of marriage, this podcast helps wives better understand the heart and inner world of their husbands.
Instead of chasing a “perfect marriage,” this podcast focuses on what actually brings closeness:
- emotional safety
- understanding how men think and respond
- simple, wise ways to communicate
- and faith-based guidance you can use in real life
Each episode blends biblical wisdom, real-life stories, and practical insight to help you become a connected wife — a woman who knows how to bring more peace, warmth, and closeness into the marriage she already has.
If you’re tired of trying harder and ready to connect wiser, The Connected Wife is for you.

HMP011 These 4 Negative Behaviors In Marriage Are Predicted To Lead To Divorce Which Ones Are You Guilty Of
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What have you predicted lately and how did it turn out?
If you are anything like me, most of the things I have predicted haven't turned out the way I thought they would.
Some of my predictions were emotionally driven and that is not a good way to make predictions. Would you agree?
Suppose I told you that based on a 20-year study and over 2000 couples, it has been predicted that certain behaviors in marriage are 95% more likely to lead to divorce, would you believe me?
Of course, as humans, we cannot accurately foresee what will happen in the future or the possible problems that might arise, but we can have some idea and act accordingly.
Differences between you and your spouse are a given. It is to be expected and celebrated. But if it is seen as "not a good thing" you will try to change that person or get them to almost always agree with you.
And when they don't it leads to one of four behaviors that the study predict will lead to marital erosion and even divorce.
In this episode, you will discover what these 4 predictors are and if you are guilty of any of them, what you can do about them. The author of the study, John Gottman, labeled them "The 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
As you listen, evaluate your behavior and see which of them you or your spouse is guilty of. Be completely honest.
