What happens when you're on a self-growth journey and your partner isn't? When you're in therapy, doing the work, unpacking your trauma — and your husband is doing none of it?

In this raw, honest episode, Lauren gets vulnerable about the loneliness of being the only one doing the inner work in her marriage. She talks about the gap that's created when one person is evolving and the other is staying the same, and asks the question that keeps her up at night: How do I know when I'm doing the work I need to do versus when I'm just making excuses for him not showing up?

This episode doesn't have a neat bow. There are no easy answers. Just the real, messy truth about what it's like to navigate marriage when you're changing and your partner isn't.
