This episode is dedicated to all you out there who are currently in a relationship, and starting to consider if this relationship is no longer healthy for you and if you should leave.

It's a scary place to be in...you've no doubt poured a lot of time, energy, love and effort into making this thing work. He likely showed you a much better version of himself to you at the beginning stages, and it's hard to accept that things have changed, and even harder to understand why they changed.

That's why as a coach, I'll never tell you to leave immediately. Often when we talk to our friends, they think they're doing something good by saying "Just leave him, you deserve so much better!"

And it's true, you do deserve better, but we can't just turn off all the emotions that were built over time. We can't just erase all the good times from our memories. Maybe you've gotten close with his friends or family members. It's complex and messy.

This is why all you really need to do right now, is to focus on taking care of yourself, and to observe his behavior, so that you get to the point where there's no doubt in your mind that you want to leave the relationship.

In this episode, I share my top strategies for how to take care of yourself during this time, how to explore your emotions and thoughts around the relationship so you can get some clarity, and how to observe his behavior so that when the time comes, you are crystal clear on your decision and ready to leave.
