Navigating a Marriage Crisis: How to Reconnect When One Partner Wants Out with Dr. Becky Whetstone

Linda Bjork/Dr. Becky Whetstone Season 6 Episode 29

What do you do when your marriage is in crisis and one partner wants out? In this insightful episode, we sit down with Dr. Becky Whetstone, a Marriage and Family Therapist, consultant, life coach, and author of I (Think) I Want Out. After experiencing her own disappointing marriage counseling that led to divorce, Dr. Becky became determined to learn how to truly help couples reconcile when possible—or create an amicable divorce when necessary.

Dr. Becky explains how, when a partner’s nervous system is activated, they enter fight-or-flight mode, feeling as though their survival is at stake. This often leads them to believe that leaving is the only option. However, by calming the nervous system, addressing the root causes of conflict, and encouraging personal growth, many marriages can be saved.

Join us as Dr. Becky shares her expert insights on navigating a marriage crisis, strengthening relationships, and finding the best path forward—whether that means healing together or parting peacefully.
