In this short monologue, Blake R. Templeton warns that a spouse can sense a partner’s emotional state before any words are spoken, so waking up stressed can immediately affect the marriage. He proposes a “calm leadership” routine for husbands: rise before everyone else, pray before speaking, stretch slowly, intentionally smile at the wife, and give her a hug and kiss before leaving for work. The goal is to prevent the transfer of stress and instead provide the “peace of God” to the spouse, positioning the husband as the source of calm in the relationship.
