"When Staying Is the Wrong Kind of Brave" - A Follow-Up to The Marriage That Was Killing Me

After Episode 6 aired, my inbox exploded. Hundreds of messages from women saying, "It's like you were describing my life."

So this episode is for you. The one who's dying inside while everyone thinks you're fine. The one who stopped caring because caring hurts too much. The one who's staying out of fear, not love.

In this episode, I answer the questions you've been afraid to ask:

💜 How do you know if it's really over or just a rough patch?
💜 What about the kids? Won't divorce traumatize them?
💜 Why does he say he's "blindsided" when I've been unhappy for years?
💜 How did I find the courage to actually leave?
💜 What questions helped me get clarity?

I share the moment my son asked why married people sleep in the same bed—because we'd been in separate rooms so long he thought it was normal.

The relationship coach who told me I was "like Schwarzenegger with tits." The vision that kept me going when everything fell apart.

This isn't me telling you to leave. Only you know what's true for you.

But if you've stopped caring... if staying feels like dying... if you can't remember who you were before this relationship...

You already know. Deep down, you already know.

My book Awaken Your Purpose is the 28-day framework that helped me rebuild after leaving. Get your copy: https://ericacarrico.com/books

You deserve to be fully alive. 💜
