How have Macbeth and Lady Macbeth reversed roles by the end of the play

In Act 1, Lady Macbeth is the planner, the one who is dragging her reluctant husband into committing one murder. But by Act 4, Macbeth commits murder after murder and Lady Macbeth is the reluctant one, nauseated and consumed with guilt by the bloodshed.
