Why Spontaneity Is the Secret Weapon of High-Functioning Marriages
Jun 20, 2025
A couple of Saturdays ago, Paige and I went out for lunch with no plan for the rest of the day.
No agenda.
No itinerary.
Just a sunny afternoon and each other.
Halfway through lunch, I asked, “What do you feel like doing next?”
She paused. Tilted her head. Did that little shoulder shimmy she does when she’s feeling something in her body.
“I feel like doing something sporty.”
No specifics. Just an energy. A playful impulse.
And it was all I needed.
Within ten minutes, I had us booked for a bay at Topgolf.
No overthinking. No long debate. Just instinct, clarity, and motion.
Her intuition.
My direction.
That’s masculine and feminine polarity in real time.
When She Feels, He Leads
Here’s what’s easy to miss:
Paige didn’t have a plan — but she gave me a spark. And in that spark was everything I needed to move. That’s what masculine leadership is built on: decisiveness in response to the feminine’s expressed desire.
But this moment could’ve fallen apart when she looked down at her outfit — a summer sundress and sandals — and said:
“Oh no… I don’t think I’m dressed right to swing a golf club.”
I saw the moment of hesitation.
The impulse to backpedal.
But instead, she smiled and said:
“Let’s go anyway.”
And I’ll be honest — watching your wife swing a golf club in a sundress? That’s not a memory you forget.
We laughed. We played. She even beat me (don’t ask how).
And none of it was on the calendar.
For the Women:
Your job isn’t to figure everything out.
It’s to feel.
To trust your inner spark.
Even if it’s vague. Even if it makes no sense.
Because your aliveness is what invites leadership.
When you express what you want to feel — not what you need to control — the right man will meet you there.
For the Men:
Stop waiting for your wife to hand you a to-do list.
Stop killing the moment with logic.
Her spark is not a trap.
It’s an invitation.
Your job is to catch it — and lead.
Create the plan. Book the thing. Drive the moment forward.
That’s what creates safety. That’s what keeps passion alive.
That’s what makes her want to follow your lead.
Why This Matters for High-Performing Couples
When you’re managing businesses, kids, teams, and calendars — play can become an afterthought. But it’s often in those unstructured, off-script moments that your relationship comes alive again.
Not in the therapy room.
Not on the performance review spreadsheet.
In the 10 seconds after she says, “I feel like…” and you decide to run with it.
