#24: When He is Dragging His Feet


Listen Later

In this episode, we talk about what to do if he is dragging his feet in recovery. 

There are, in general, three archetypes on the spectrum of a man that is dragging his feet in recovery.  On one end is a man that is resistant, defensive and mean.  On the other end of the spectrum is a man that is trying but there is also a lot of stumbling and fumbling.  In the middle - would be the man that has done some good work but has now moved into complacency. 

Being able to name where he is at can be helpful in figuring out how to get unstuck (for both of you).  In addition, having a conversation about where he is at and where you think he is at would be beneficial.

We wrap up this episode with what you can do when he drags his feet in recovery and what he can do when he is dragging his feet.
