#283 When and Why to Consider Divorce
About this Episode
Welcome to the Extraordinary Family Life podcast! In this compelling episode, hosts Greg and Rachel Denning address a heartfelt listener question that strikes at the core of personal development and the complexities surrounding divorce. Our listener shares her incredible journey of growth over the past decade and the deep challenges she's faced as she feels increasingly disconnected from her husband. She describes feeling "multiple levels ahead of him in most aspects of life," leading to feelings of resentment and frustration.
As she diligently works on self-improvement, she expresses, "I think I have been going through YEARS of grief in my marriage," grappling with the emotional toll of feeling alone in her relationship. Together, we explore her struggles with communication, the potential consequences of considering divorce, and whether she should "just be grateful for what I have" or push for more.
Rachel and Greg discuss the complexities of navigating a relationship where one partner is committed to growth while the other remains stagnant. They emphasize the importance of understanding each other's needs, tackling uncomfortable conversations, and setting realistic expectations for an extraordinary marriage.
If you've ever felt the strain of personal growth affecting your relationship or grappled with the desire for more in your marriage, this episode is for you. Tune in for insights that could help you find balance, clarity, and the path forward in your journey toward a fulfilling family life.
