Have you ever longed to feel more loved and cherished in your marriage? In this episode of The Worthy Wife, I’m leaning into that tender place where our hearts feel the most unmet especially as an empty nester.

When your deepest desire to be loved goes unfulfilled, it can start to wear down your self-confidence. You may catch yourself questioning who you are, or wondering if you’ll ever feel truly accepted in your marriage.

In today’s conversation, I’ll share how to steady your heart by rooting your identity in Christ. You’ll learn what it means to receive love directly from God and create boundaries of safety and peace.

This episode is for you if you’ve ever felt rejected in your marriage. You are not invisible to God. You are seen, known, and endlessly loved by Him.

What would life be like if you had the confidence to be yourself? What if you had the courage to speak up without the fear of rejection or disappointing others? How freeing would it feel to stop performing to earn acceptance and finally rest in who God made you to be?

Welcome to the very first episode of The Worthy Wife! I’m Carrie Allemeersch—certified life coach, wife, and mom—and this is the place where I help women just like you build self-confidence and embrace who you truly are through biblical truths and by learning to manage your mind and emotions.

In this kickoff episode, I’m sharing:

• Why I changed the name of the podcast and what it means for you.

• My personal story of exhaustion and striving as a lifelong people-pleaser.

• The lie I believed about my worth—and the truth God showed me.

• The vision for this new season: building confidence, letting go of burdens you were never meant to carry, and boldly stepping into your God-given role.

If you’ve been walking on eggshells in your marriage, carrying emotional weight that isn’t yours, or feeling stuck in your role as a wife, mom, or empty nester—this podcast is for you. You are worthy, not because of what you do, but because of who you belong to.

Have you ever felt misunderstood when you said “no” to something in order to follow God’s call on your life? Maybe others thought you were selfish, arrogant, or not a team player—when in reality, you were simply staying faithful to what God asked of you.

In this episode, Carrie shares inspiration from the movie F1 (2025), where one driver’s quiet confidence and loyalty to the bigger picture led to unexpected opportunities for others. His story reminds us of what it looks like to stand firm in God’s calling, even when others don’t understand.

You’ll hear:

• A powerful story of focus and sacrifice from the movie F1.

• Why being secure in Christ means you don’t have to defend every decision.

• Biblical examples of men and women who were misunderstood but faithful.

• Encouragement to trust God’s bigger picture when people misread your motives.

This episode is for the Christian woman who is tired of people-pleasing, weary of over-explaining, and longing to walk confidently in the calling God has given her.

• Galatians 1:10 — Am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God?

• Hebrews 11 — Examples of faith lived out despite misunderstanding.

• Nehemiah 6 — Staying focused on God’s work in the face of criticism.

Are you exhausted from trying to earn love, approval, or acceptance — even in your closest relationships? In this episode we’re talking about the heavy weight of performance and the beautiful freedom Christ offers instead.

If you’ve been living under pressure — trying to do everything right so you’ll be accepted — it’s time to hear the truth: you are accepted in Christ. You don’t have to prove your worth. You don’t have to hustle for peace. God has given you His acceptance through Jesus, and that changes everything about how you show up in your marriage, family, and daily life.

• How pressure robs you of peace — even when everything “looks” perfect

• What Scripture says about being set free in Christ

• Practical ways to rest in God’s love without losing your leadership as a wife and homemaker

If you’re ready to step out of fear and into faith — trading the weight of trying to please everyone for the joy of simply walking with God — this conversation is for you.

Scripture Reference

“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.” — Galatians 5:1

Have you ever felt like you’ve lost yourself in your marriage? Maybe for years you’ve gone along just to keep the peace, or you’ve shaped your life around your husband’s preferences — until one day you wake up and wonder, “Where am I in all of this?”

This episode is for you.

Today we’re talking about self-differentiation — a big word that simply means knowing who you are, staying grounded in your God-given identity, and making choices before Him, without being consumed by the expectations or emotions of others.

Even in marriage, God calls each of us to stand before Him as individuals. Acts 5:9 reminds us of this truth, and the whole of Scripture affirms it: we are accountable to God for our own thoughts, choices, and obedience.

In this 12-minute episode you’ll learn:

• Why each of us is accountable to God as individuals (Acts 5:9, Galatians 6:5).

• How self-differentiation is not selfishness, but obedience (Romans 14:12, Matthew 22:37).

• Why healthy marriage requires two whole people, not one person disappearing into the other (Ecclesiastes 4:9–10).

You’ll also hear real-life examples of what this looks like in the empty nest season — from rediscovering your passions to navigating differences with your husband around adult children.

💡 Reflection Guide: to help you take this deeper, I’ve created a free download: “Standing Strong in Christ: A Reflection Guide for Self-Differentiation in Marriage.” Inside you’ll find prayerful questions to help you recognize where you’ve lost yourself and how to begin standing strong in who God made you to be.

Do you ever feel like your value has dropped because of weight gain, aging, depression, or even your husband’s choices? Or maybe you’ve felt the opposite — like you’re more valuable when you’re busy serving, pleasing others, or doing all the “right” things.

In today’s episode, I want to share a freeing truth with you: nothing you do, and nothing anyone else does, can diminish or increase your worth.

Your value was set by God when He created you in His image and sealed by Jesus at the Cross. That means:

• Your husband’s betrayal does not lower your worth.

• Your homemaking and people-pleasing cannot raise your worth.

• Your children’s rejection of faith does not diminish your worth.

• Your service at church does not increase your worth.

💜 Your value is not up for debate. It is unshakable, eternal, and already settled in Christ.

I’ll share a personal story of when I believed my worth had changed — and how God’s Word brought me back to the truth.

Grab a journal for reflection, because I’ll also guide you through some powerful questions to help you anchor your worth in Christ and stop tying it to the ups and downs of life.

Let’s rest together in the truth: you are loved, you are accepted, and your value is secure.

1. Where in your life have you believed your worth has decreased (something done to you or a personal struggle)?

2. Where have you believed your worth has increased (achievements, serving, or people’s approval)?

3. How does remembering that your worth was set by God — and sealed at the Cross — change the way you see yourself today?

So often as Christian women; wives and or mothers, we become anxious and question our value when others express an angry emotional response. What would it be like to be so well grounded in Christ and in your identity that his emotions did not rock your world or have you questioning yourself? Does his anger have you wondering if you are a good wife?

What if one of your boundaries included, not taking it personal when he gets mad? One of our roles as our husband's partner is to not be his "yes man", but to instead show up as his equal, emotionally connected and confident help mate.

Are you ready for this episode? I hope so because I do get a little spicy but in a really sweet way;)
