Ep. 74 What to do if your husband or partner isn’t on board with health changes?
As women move through fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood, it’s natural to begin questioning old patterns and wanting to make different choices for your health, your home, and your children. But what happens when your partner isn’t fully on board?
In this episode, I’m sharing one of the most common conversations I have with clients, friends, and women inside my coaching programs: how to navigate difficult conversations with your spouse when you’re growing, learning, and changing.
Maybe you started your relationship aligned on everything… but over time your values, priorities, or health decisions evolved. Suddenly the changes you want to make around food, wellness, parenting, or lifestyle begin creating tension or resistance in your relationship.
I’ve experienced this personally in my own marriage and have supported hundreds of women through it as well.
In this episode, I break down the three foundational principles I always return to when approaching hard conversations with your partner:
- Speaking from the “I”
- Approaching conversations with love and respect
- Staying as curious as possible
From there, I share the three approaches I teach my clients to help navigate these moments with more connection, understanding, and less conflict. I also share real-life examples of how these conversations have played out for clients and why sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is model what’s possible while allowing others the space to come to their own understanding.
This is the kind of deep, supportive work we do inside my Group Coaching Program, Generational Wellness, and in private coaching.
