It felt so good in the beginning. it was warm, they were PERFECT, they read your mind (or did they😏), and you both saw a future together! Everything flowed so easily:- The chemistry. The effort. The closeness.
(BTW - if you want to know about stage 5 - NEXT WEEKS EPISODE, ties attachment styles, and stage 5 down together).
And then something happen, things shifted, the relationship started to get harder, the effort seemed endless, the fights picked up, the lack of resolution was lingering and both of you deeply love each other but can understand why love is so hard and you don’t know if that means something’s wrong — or if this is just what love becomes over time.
This is the power struggle stage. 😩The stage many survive (not thrive), many relationships end, some that should have and some because of a lack of knowledge, skill and confidence to shift the relationship around. But the love is there.
In this episode, I walk you through the 5 stages every relationship goes through — from the first spark to the real emotional work — and how to recognize what stage you’re in right now. The sad truth is that most people leave at Stage 2. 😞
Not because the love is gone — but because no one ever taught them how to stay through the hard parts. If you’ve ever thought, “What happened to us?” — this one’s for you, and my deep hope is that you both can win at your relationship, or you get educated enough to know the stages of your next relationship.
