My reality show debuted last week. If you loved the Asolo edition, you shouldn’t miss this week’s edition for anything! You are going to see how important it is to cherish the love you’ve got.
We get busy, that’s a given. We get busy with work and distracted by so many needs and ambition.
And that is ok. But we need to create the balance, because there are people in your life who deserve your attention.
Your spouse is one, and your children.
So how busy is too busy?
Love that ignites the whole family and seeps into the heart and attitude of the children would first begin with the couple who decided to come together to live and grow a family in the first place.
Are you taking our spouses for granted?
Maybe not intentionally, but we get so busy we forget to see what is in front of us. Soon our love starts to suffer and all kinds of challenges begin to show.
One thing is important: take out time from your daily hustle every other week to spend time together. Find somewhere you can sit, eat and stare into each other’s eyes.
No, it is not an ‘oyinbo concept’. Black couples too deserve romance.
That’s the essence of #MakeMeFabulous; that’s the gospel I am preaching this morning.
So tell me, what have you done for your spouse/partner/lover lately?
Share with the rest of us!
xoxo

October 9, 2016 at 2:00 amDear Steph,
Our first wedding anniversary is on the 14th of next month (November 2016),i must tell you that we have never had any dinner together alone all because of our busy schedule,we did not even go for honeymoon,its that bad,so sad and boring. We don’t have children yet and I really think we should enjoy this period while it last. But nothing like romantic walk or dinner,or even spending 24hrs quality time together alone has ever happened…….i’m getting really really bored and i’m getting tired of being bored as it is,and I want to spice things up on our anniversary but I don’t know how to do this,i would make us take a day off from work that day…….But please help, I really need you to shine light and brighten up this relationship. Dear Steph,please I need you.#makemefabulous

January 2, 2017 at 11:05 amDear Stephanie,
You are doing a great job I must say. We got married over 7 years ago. I worked with a bank then. No honeymoon. Busy! Busy!! Busy!!! Now I handle admin, tax, and corporate consulting and it has gotten worse. My husband is very understanding. He owns his own business but has more time. I am feeling guilty because I know he’s not too happy with the imbalance. He doesn’t want to stop me from working but I shouldn’t be complacent about his feelings. I can see the body language. We have two kids, a 6+ girl and 4+ boy and they get to spend more time with him. I need a special treat to show him nothing is wrong with us and that we can have fun like every other couple doing so. I really need your special treat please. #makemefabulous.
Thank you.
Charity.

May 5, 2017 at 11:27 pmHi steph. I admire your look. Am married with 3 kids. My husband is always busy with his business,he wakes up every day by 6,7 on d dot his off. He closes work by 5pm and stays out until around 9.30pm he comes home to take his bath, eat then sleeps off. Wen I try to discuss about his day or family issues he will only doze off. He doesn’t believe he can leave the children and just go out with you. I have capable hand to take care of them. I like weekend getaway but he believes his kids happiness first. After our wedding on Sat, on Monday his off to work as serious as that. Am not even the make-up type, #makemefabulous I want him to be wowed
