Why Intimacy Feels Heavy Instead of Holy | HLW Valentine's Day Series: Episode 1

Chelsey Holm Season 2 Episode 21

Surrender feels hard for many wives—not because they’re unwilling, but because they’ve been taught to approach it as something to do instead of something that flows from the heart.

In this opening episode of our daily February series leading up to Valentine’s Day, Chelsey reframes surrender through a biblical lens and reveals why striving, confusion, and exhaustion often show up when heart posture and order are off.

This episode is not about fixing your marriage or modifying your behavior. It’s about returning to a right view of God, a right view of yourself, and allowing surrender to emerge naturally from gratitude and trust—rather than effort.

If surrender has felt heavy, unclear, or out of reach, this episode will help you see why—and gently invite you back to the starting place.

This is the foundation for the next 18 days.

Ready for a next step?

If this episode stirred something deeper and you’re ready to move from insight into surrender, I created a short guided experience called From Awareness to Surrender.

This mini course includes three short teachings, a guided exercise, and a prayer recorded over you to help you stop cycling and start responding differently—rooted in surrender, not striving.
