68. The Unchangeable Truth: We Can't Change Others

The Unchangeable Truth: We Can't Change Others


In this episode of the Helping Couples Heal podcast, Marnie talks
about the pain and confusion that arises for couples when one
partner is not doing the work to heal. She gently and
compassionately addresses the hard truth that nobody can force
another person to do recovery work, demonstrate empathy, tell the
truth, change and/or heal. Using the metaphor of a bridge, we
will explore the frustration and grief that accompanies the
healing process, specifically when one
partner isn't willing or able to cross the bridge
together.
