Conquering the Fear of Making Things Worse in Your Marriage

August 01, 20231 min read

When your partner responds negatively in a tough conversation, do you assume it's your fault or get blamed for "making things worse"?

Are you compelled to backpedal, smooth things over, or even withdraw your complaint or request?

In this episode, I break down the fear many women have when speaking up - the fear of making things worse.

We talk about:

  • Where the fear of making things worse comes from.

  • How to recognize that it's time to make a change.

  • Three things you can do to overcome your fear.
