Yeah but happiness is a decision. Each person needs to decide for themselves if they are going to be happy or not. You can be as prefect as Jesus but your spouse can still decide to be unhappy.
estee you’ve inspired me! literally every week to church I’ve been wearing dresses or skirts and I feel so much more pretty and feminine. no one in my church dresses up but I don’t even care anymore!
Aww this put such a smile on my face ❤ I’m so happy I have inspired you! Also you never know… more girls and women may also start to dress up! It just takes 1 to make a difference 🥰💝
Great advice! I despise "happy wife happy life" its "happy spouse happy house" in our home. Whole foods, sunshine and prioritizing yourself when youre looking for a mate is spot on.
Estee, the dresses will be even more handy when you have kids!! I'm a mom of 5 and you have a great point about dresses. I always looked cute, even on tired days! Lots of room for running after the small fries 😊 I assume you already know you can put good pockets on dresses too, for convenience. You rule Estee!
My fiancé knew he was in love with me on the first week of dating and he had no problem telling me so (even though I wasn’t ready for that yet). He knew and had no problem with it, he KNEW we were going to be together. My favourite thing about him on those days was how secure and ZERO games played he was (is). He never let me doubt him and his clear intentions for one second. 3.5 years later he’s still like that, I did fall madly in love with him and we are getting married in 6 weeks!! ☺️☺️☺️ (Btw, I was 36 when I met him, so, don’t think this only happens or has to happen when u are very young). Great advice, Estee!
On the topic of food! I’ve been learning to cook recently, since i wasnt taught when i was young, and when im trying to find “healthy meals” on pinterest ALL THAT COMES UP IS LOW CALORIE!!! Low calorie does NOT mean that its healthy!!! Just give me a simple protein veggie carb meal!!!!! Diet culture destroyed the nutritional value of food!!!
When my wife starts feeling down. She throws on some praise and worship and starts worshipping our creator. I can always tell when she's been in the presence of our Saviour
I get lots of positive comments on my outfit when I wear a dress, from men as well as women. They are usually fit and flare or princess line as they flatter my figure best. I choose from a handful of options each season which keeps my style fresh. I accessorize with jewelry, scarves, cardigans, and dusters. A lot of my wardrobe is thrifted, gifted, or inherited so it does not have to cost a lot to dress feminine. Thanks again for another inspiring episode, Estee. Women of today should be respected and celebrated for the beauty God gave each one of them. The first person to do that should be themselves! Looking forward to more encouraging content. 💖💖💖
And men definitely notice it, when I put on a dress suddenly men are opening the doors for me, helping me to get into the car, they just love that feminine pull
I enjoy so much your videos! You speak true. No matter what society instil in us these days, we know in our hearts what works and takes to have a happy marriage.
Yesss 100% do this big sister advice again! I also ADORE dresses. My step-sister and I did 30 days of wearing only skirts and dresses, and I felt so GORGEOUS and feminine and comfortable! And I already liked dresses and wore them sometimes, but I wear them SO much more now because I just feel so pretty!
I absolutely love how you just seem so sweet an humble and they way you talk about everything so non-judgmental. Truly a beautiful woman inside and out and so inspiring for other young women
The real issue isn't the calories in the food but the portion control. High quality, full-fat healthy food in the right portions is the best way to stay fit and healthy. Over the decades, portions just keep getting bigger and bigger and normalized.
YESSSS!! I love my dresses and always have. I always have people asking why I'm all dressed up when I wear a dress and my reply is literally "it's one item of clothing so I don't have to try matching two items"
I love how you mentioned the fat thing, fats are not bad!!!! If you eat fatty things your brain will send you signals that you're saturated in half the portion you'll eat of carbs or proteins
Estee, how I wish you were my big sister! Thank you for such great advice that we women need to hear more often. You are one of my new favourite influencers and I love learning from you ❤
HEATHER: Yes!...Hopefully, your husband and children know that you're a good mom....Perhaps you have a nice "meditation tree" in the backyard where sometimes you can "get away from technology", as Estee advises... Thanks for your comment, Heather...
As a "trad husband", I love your message about marriage not being a competition between man and woman like the Barbie movie message. A wonderful marriage is the celebration of each other , our differences and our strengths. Our power and love is in having each other's backs doing what we are born to do. I think you are the ultimate hero of the internet to fight criticism from delusional people and promote the true happy way to live together. Keep it up! You are a breath of fresh air.
But that IS the Barbie movie message… a celebration of differences and individuality, as well as promoting motherhood. I’m not sure that you watched it. The competition stuff was to set up the conflict within the movie which gets solved at the end with the realisation.
I am blessed to live in the country with a river in my backyard. My kitten really likes going outside so I built a good sized fenced in area for him and I sit out there with him while he plays and relaxes in the grass. I have a small raised garden bed and am growing my seedlings to transfer into the garden soon. I like going outside at night and looking at the stars. Even if I don't feel good, and don't want to do anything, it usually makes me feel better to go outside and get some fresh air. Got to love nature.😊
I’m not into what you’re selling. I just came here cuz I saw you being commented on by another channel and your voice gave me some mild ASMR. If you need a solid side hustle consider marketing yourself as the ASMR Trad Wife! I’m serious. Your soft spoken voice is really nice to listen to, regardless of what you say!
Estou no médio e acho essa mulher incrível, ela tem valores que infelizmente estão desaparecidos hoje, eu gostaria de ter uma mulher assim, vou estudar, trabalhar para conseguir e merecê-la, com Deus nada é impossível.
I work from home for 3 days a week and one from the office. Every office day, I wear a dress and get dressed up nicely and I always get compliments from the sweet ladies that I work with and a few backhanded comments from the not so sweet, but both are fine with me. I feel feminine and pretty and it obviously stands out, whether people like it or not.
I like to write when i disconnect from technology, when im feeling down and depressed i put my headphones on go outside turn on the music and either walk do yard work or just walk around in the country watch the trees and the animals.
The dress is a very nice touch. It beats the girl wearing my clothes, that's for sure. As far as clothes, I decided to do a traditional help the lady get her coat on thing at work and the management freaked out! She didn't complain but the staff got paranoid about a sexual harassment suit?
You're vids are great, I can't tell you how many times a day I see women on their phones, walking their dogs, going for a jog/run, driving or in the passenger seat, walking at a cross walk, waiting at a bus stop etc.......always on the phone. And guys with their video games--this is a big reason relationships are failing.
All said are true!! Thank you very much! Keep up the good work! And you are so beautiful and girly, I think that's what makes most of us gestures. Cause deep inside we all want to be like you but with various reasons either don't know how or just can't make the look work. Like when the weather is getting cold it is very difficult to wear dresses and stays warm. Or it's hard to find a feminine dress over a "hole" dress, the ones they sell now are just not enough material on them....
I'm in a situationship. He has never told me directly if he loves me. I have told him I love him. It has been 4 years. I am not with him. I write a love letter every month and place it in my dresser. I have written over 50 letters to him that he will never see. I am unfortunately never going to stop loving this man. it isn't as easy as just moving on. I see him in my dreams. We cut each other off. I havn;t seen him in 2 years. But I pray to god that one day I will be with him again.
Thank you, Estee. I've never heard an alternative view on happy wife, happy life before. I feel detoxed already. I can't speak for all guys but a woman in a dress goes a long way toward better groomed men.
Can you please make a video about how a trad husband is supposed to treat his wife? I am wanting to transition to this lifestyle and my husband has the media caricature idea of what a trad household is in his mind and he is real condescending in his requests of me. I work 60 hours a week right now. I am adopting what I can but until we get to one income or if I can get down to part time, I cannot fully take on role of homemaker. But what he thinks a trad marriage is and his behavior as a result of that is not what I want for our marriage. “Shut up and make me bacon. You don’t get an opinion as a trad wife on how money is spent once I’m the main earner” attitude. I am currently the main earner and I think I am more financially savvy. We have been together 6 years married for 4 months. This is not how he normally is and he didn’t develop this attitude until I told him I wanted to move to a more traditional family unit because I think it would be better for our future children as functioning family.
I agree there needs to be more mention of this in these videos. If there is a legitimate criticism of tradwives in social media, it's that. As a traditional husband myself (16 years, 13 with a son), I will say that a traditional husband is expected to be the sole provider of the income the household actually needs to get by. That doesn't mean the wife cannot earn income as well, so long as she prioritizes her duties at home. It just means that the only "should" concerning income is that the husband should make enough to support the family in any case. He also is to be the protector which includes not being the direct cause of harmful stress. And if you dial it back to the bible (where the notion of women willfully submitting to their husbands originates), the man is also to love and honor his wife. All this being said, no one is going to be absolutely perfect at following these norms and roles, especially if they weren't actively raised that way. So IMO the husband and wife should put their relationship first and work these principles in gradually.
ABORT ABORT!!!! DO NOT DO THIIS!!! You are the principle source of income for your household, and the one with more financial savvy, as you said. I have been in the business word, but after 3 years I burnt out, so I know what it is like to work there. The other women were upset, on edge, and spending most of their money on daycare so I have been where you are, although I did not approach 60 hour work weeks. Being married and dating are two very different things and despite how long you have been dating/living together, you do not know him as well as you think you do as a spouse-that takes a lot of time because the entire nature and dynamics of the relationship change. I have been a traditional (I hate being called Trad because that wasn’t what it was called when I started) for 16 years now, married for 18. The money I was bringing in was ok, but nowhere near what my husband was and he saw how miserable I was. But the thing is he did not tell me to adopt this lifestyle. We sat down over the course of a few months and talked long and hard about it. It was going to cut our income and to be honest my homemaking skill set was way inferior to what it is now. We developed a clearly defined understanding of who was going to be doing what, and when, etc. Also, in all our time together, though I defer to him on most things, he has never treated me with anything but respect and ordered me around- never said “shut up and make me bacon!” I am not saying this is not the life for you, or the workforce is better for you, that decision is yours for your own reasons, but from what I said this is not sort of husband to do it with. You are your own woman, not his dog, and he’s made his future behavior very clear.
@@angiepatterson6338 I do second those concerns. If he doesn't respond well to the expectations of a traditional husband (which include speaking to you in a loving way that reassures he will protect you - mind, body and soul), then you may have no choice but to abandon the idea altogether.
@@Vic2point0 Yes. Also, I do not agree with Mrs. Williams saying that he will fall in love right away. That was not my case took time. Also, she says men are simple. No offense, but I sort of agree with this. But simple does not mean stupid by any means. If my husband has something on his mind, he’ll tell me but in a pleasant, respectful way. I am afraid for this girl. She seems like she is going into this sort of arrangement for the mere sake of it, like she has seen to many videos about it. I can’t speak to your marriage, but what I do is not so easy- I don’t just bake cookies and clean in a dress. Just like my husband I work hard, but just in a different way. I usually don’t shower until say 10 AM because I am going to be doing things that will also get me dirty. It’s not the simple life that is portrayed in a 3 minute video. I also just sense a controlling husband in her situation. I can smell the abuse from here. My own husband broke my rib once, but only because stuff went down wrong and I couldn’t breathe and would have died without him there-being my protector. She won’t know anything about the house money either. My husband brings in all our money but I know where it can be found in case something were to happen to him. I have probably gone on to long but can only hope and pray that she has listened to us.
She's absolutely right about not wasting time with men that you can't tell of they like you or not. If a man is really into you, it will be clear. Men rrally are too simple to play coy. The one caviat is that he may pull back if he senses that you may not be as intereated as he is and he wants to test to see if you text him back or call him, especially if it seems he is always the only one sending the first text and calling and sending the longest texts. Other than that, if he is into you, you will know. Your prime years are short, don't waste them on a man that isn't really into you.
On the part of clothing yourself attractively for men - I like to dress more boring and masculine when im out alone without my husband because of safety. I never get so much attention as when I'm wearing a dress, and some has been scary. My younger sister as well has to do this, and saves her dresses for church and family events ..
