“Should You Give Up or Fight for Your Relationship? – Mini post

Help for the client who was about to give up on their marriage…

It’s strange how the urge to give up often shows up right before the breakthrough. When the weight feels unbearable, when the silence in your relationship is deafening, when every conversation ends in a cold wall — that’s when your mind whispers, 

“It’s over.”

“What if the moment you feel like giving up isn’t proof that it’s over — but a sign you’ve just hit your limit, and it’s time to grow past it?”

The truth is, most people don’t quit because the relationship is broken. They quit because they don’t know how to fix it. They run out of tools, not love.

That moment — the one filled with doubt, frustration, and fear — is often the exact moment to fight like hell. But not the kind of fight that wears you out. Not blame, not control, not chasing.

The fight is internal.

It’s the fight to stay aligned with who you promised to be, your promise to you about who you are.

It’s the fight to meet pain with purpose. It’s the decision to stop recycling resentment and start investing in what could be — not just what’s gone wrong.

The people who win in love aren’t the ones who never hurt. They’re the ones who choose to lead when it hurts most.

Is this the time to become more of who you really are not less, you may feel you’re out of choices, but is the reality your just at the end of your knowledge?

So before you walk away, ask yourself — is this the end… or the edge of something far better?

This isn’t about giving up on your marriage it’s about NOT giving up on you.

My clients tell me they want to look themselves in the mirror proud they did all they could, then the outcome doesn’t matter because then it’s their truth.

Together or apart this is the truth.

No regrets!

I’m not going to ask you how you “feel", pay me to watch you argue, or try to find the person to blame.

I am looking to discover if the couple can become a team, overcome their problems together and create a dynamic that will create a loving and passionate life together.

My approach is to take you from where you are, to where you want to be… fast!

I can not recommend Stephen highly enough – he not only saved our marriage, but has improved my marriage and myself as a person.

A 30 minute call with Stephen

In a short phone conversation, Stephen was able to quickly get to the heart of what the real issue was in our marriage – and why in almost a year of working on our marriage including 10 weeks of marriage counselling through a relationship therapy organisation, we weren’t really making any progress. I found Stephen to be extremely perceptive, as well as empathetic to our situation, while being able to quickly pinpoint the real sticking point in our marriage.
Many thanks
Olivia

Dear Stephen
Thank you for your time to listen to my experience in my marriage. You gave me encouragement to speak out to my partner in confidence. You made me realise that sometimes the way we make comments on each other can aggravate the situation and make it worse. Your advice made me feel revived.

Kind regards

Chipo
