Show Notes

In today's episode I am speaking on something I am seeing over and over again presenting to me in my clientele.

Clients who are in 'successful' marriages. Who outwardly have everything but who on the inside are emotionally disconnected from their partners, feel they have outgrown the relationship, no longer feel aligned with the life built up around them or who feel more like a friend or even a business partner towards their spouse.

In this episode we will cover:

- The characteristics I typically see in this marriage
-  Why we are seeing this phenomenon occurring in relationships more than ever
- What we are really setting ourselves up for when we stay in this marriage 
- What we are really setting our children up for if we stay in this marriage for them
- What to do if you're staying in this marriage out of loyalty to the other person
- What to do if you're staying in this marriage because of fear and self-doubt
- The one question you can utilise to open up conversation with your partner to express how you really feel, your concerns and to also gauge how they're really feeling inside.

'Successful' marriages without fulfilment. The modern day version of failure.
