127: The Key to Addressing Her Sadness If It Feels Like You’re Not Making Progress

Have you ever had a good day with your spouse, then out of nowhere, you get hit with a wave of deep sadness.

Then you share the sadness and the conversation spirals and he doesn’t say much in response.

If you’re a husband, have you ever been faced with that situation and wanted to help her but had no idea how?

Did you feel discouraged because you thought you were in a better spot and had made progress, only to feel like you were back to square one?

This is a very common scenario for couples, and it's so easy to get stuck here.

However, this is an absolutely crucial moment to have these conversations go well so you can actually move forward and create closure instead of feeling derailed by the sadness or the impact of the past.

In this episode, I share with you the specific ways that you and your spouse can handle these conversations and feelings when they come up without them causing a spiral or a fight.
