You have a deep desire to have a husband. You don’t know how or when you will meet him. One day you want to have a successful marriage, so why not start now on preparing yourself to be a wife!

While I was single I had a mindset shift and thought, if I wanted to meet an amazing, healthy man, I need to be that myself. I needed to prepare myself to be a wife. I will share with you what I did to do just that.

I am here to tell you that I am not perfect and I am still growing and learning, but I stepped into marriage more prepared and sure of myself and the man I was marrying because of the steps I took to prepare.

Have you heard the phrase, "I'll sleep when I'm dead"? Well, you may die sooner than you think with this mindset. Sleep is when your body recovers, restores, rejuvenates. All the systems in your body operate because of sleep. Don't underestimate it.

In this episode, I share research and studies about sleep. I share how many hours you actually need and practical ways to help you be able to fall asleep and have quality sleep.

One device I mention that will help with sleep is Red Light. Here is the link for a discount for Lumebox or use the code NIKKIH

Do you feel you are getting “too old” to meet your spouse? Do you feel “left behind” as others around you are getting married, having kids? Do you feel you will never meet your life partner?

This can be a hard place to be in. It can feel like you aren’t moving forward in life as you thought you would. Maybe you are approaching your 30s or 40s and you think you should have been married by now. When will it ever happen? Will it ever happen?

This thought can hold you back. It can make you believe you are less than. This comes down to self trust, self worth, self talk and (the big one) COMPARISON! This also puts limits on God. He has the ultimate plan for your life. He is always working behind the scenes.

It's important to listen to God's voice during times like this. I share a chapter from my book "A God You've Never Met: Who is the Holy Spirit" about how to hear the voice of God.

When I was single I didn’t think about certain things that would happen while being married. I didn’t really know what to expect. Yes, I’ve had people tell me what their marriage was like, but I didn’t think about what it would be like for me.

So I want to tell those of you who are single some aspects I didn’t think about of what marriage would be like. Giving you a heads up, something to prepare for, and to look forward to.

I also share what to look for in a spouse and how important this decision actually is! DO NOT SETTLE!

One thing I’ve come to realize and love about my relationship with my husband (there are many) is that we are on the same page politically, morally, and religiously. These are important things to note when you are dating someone and talking about marriage. No, you don’t have to agree on everything, but in my opinion the big stuff you should.

If you are single, dating, talking about getting married, I would ask these 3 questions

1. What are their religious beliefs?

2. What are their morals?

3. What are their political views?

These are hard topics to discuss, I get it, but they are vitally important in a relationship. Think about it, you want to spend the rest of your life with this person. This is the person you will be making all your decisions with. This is the person you will be raising your children with. This is the person you are sharing your finances with. This is the person you will live with. This is an important decision. I cannot stress this enough!!

I want to help you become confident in your own skin. I want to help you see your worth. I want to help you become content in the season you are in while also preparing for a relationship.
