About this episode

In this episode, Tilly Dillehay addresses common marital issues and emphasizes the importance of pleasure in marriage.

Welcome to episode one of Wife School, a five-part series on everything no one tells you before you say "I do." Today's professor is Tilly Dillehay — author, pastor's wife, homeschooling mom of four, and one of the most requested guests in Culture Apothecary history after her last episode exploded. This one is almost entirely driven by your questions: how to stop comparing your husband to other men, what submission actually looks like day to day, sexless marriages, difficult in-laws, rebuilding trust after betrayal, and what to do when you wake up feeling more like roommates than lovers.
