In Part II of this timely and honest conversation, Marriage Mondays with The Kings moves from awareness to transformation. After exploring the generational roots of the independent woman mindset, this episode focuses on how strength can be both a gift and a barrier in marriage.

Independence builds resilience, work ethic, and self-sufficiency. But when survival mode turns into over-functioning, emotional guardedness, or difficulty receiving support, it can quietly create distance in relationships. Many strong women find themselves exhausted from carrying everything, struggling with trust, and unsure how to shift from “I’ve got it” to “We’ve got it.”

The Kings provide practical tools for moving from survival to partnership—learning how to communicate needs, release emotional backup plans, stop over-carrying, and embrace healthy interdependence without losing identity.

Because independence helps you survive.
But partnership helps you thrive.

In this eye-opening episode of Marriage Mondays with The Kings, we explore the roots of the “independent woman” mindset and how it has been passed down through generations. What began as survival training for grandmothers and great-grandmothers—who faced limited rights, financial dependence, and fewer opportunities—was necessary for their time. But many women today are still living from that same survival mindset, even though we now have more access, support, and opportunity to thrive.

We discuss how young girls are often taught how to protect themselves and prepare to stand alone, yet later are told to “be submissive” in relationships without being taught how to truly partner, trust, build together, or receive support. That early seed of doubt can quietly show up in marriage as emotional walls, over-independence, and difficulty fully relaxing in love.

This episode also shines light on the hidden burden many strong women carry—being the fixer, the provider, and the one everyone leans on—while rarely having a safe place to fall apart themselves.

This conversation is not about blame. It’s about awareness, healing, and learning how to honor the strength of the women before us while choosing connection over constant protection in our marriages today.

Is your marriage truly growing — or just repeating the same cycles with different arguments?

In this eye-opening episode of Marriage Mondays with The Kings, IT’S TIME TO ELEVATE: Your Marriage, we get honest about the real reason many relationships stay stuck. Spoiler alert: it’s not always your spouse. Many of the struggles couples face today are rooted in unhealed childhood wounds, emotional baggage, and toxic patterns that quietly follow us into adulthood.

Using the powerful illustration of a hot air balloon, we break down how issues like control, fear of abandonment, unresolved anger, addiction, and people-pleasing act like sandbags — keeping marriages grounded when they were designed by God to soar. Rooted in Isaiah 40:31, this conversation explores how spiritual faith must be matched with emotional healing and personal responsibility.

You’ll hear modern-day examples of how couples unknowingly replay their past in present conflicts, why prayer without action keeps us stagnant, and how true freedom comes when we release what’s toxic within.

“When you release what is toxic to you, you feel free — and that freedom causes you to elevate higher.”

We close with practical, faith-based tools individuals can start using immediately to bring healing, accountability, and elevation into their marriage.

If you’re ready to stop surviving and start rising together, this episode is for you.
