#46: Wondering is Work


Listen Later

In this episode, we talk about how hard it is for her as she is wondering: is he doing recovery work? Or not?

Some of the things women wonder about:

  • is he cheating on me today?
  • what if he is just checking the box?
  • is he really living with integrity when I am not around?
  • is he actually applying what we are investing time and money to learn?
  • what is he doing when he isn't with me?
  • is he standing up for me and honoring me when he is with our children?
  • the list goes on… it's a LOT to carry

Ladies - I encourage you to journal out: what is weighing on your mind as far as what you are wondering about when it comes to his recovery.

We then talk about: what can he do to help with this wondering. It comes down to transferring the burden. Jason gives four strategies men can use to transfer the burden onto him. I also mention some strategies she can use to free herself from this wondering.
