Married After Kids

Ep. 111: Can a Relationship Survive If Only One Person is Doing the Work?


Listen Later

One of the most common questions I hear is whether a relationship can actually improve if only one person is willing to work on it. It can feel exhausting and discouraging to be the one reading the books, listening to the podcasts, and trying to make changes while your partner seems checked out or resistant.


In this episode, I break down what is and is not possible when only one person is doing the work. I explain how change actually happens in relationships, what impact your efforts can have, and where the limits are. If you have been feeling stuck, resentful, or unsure whether to keep trying, this conversation will help you think about your next steps more clearly.


Tune in to discover:


• What one person can realistically change in a relationship

• How individual growth impacts the dynamic as a whole

• The signs your efforts are helping or not

• Where the limits are when only one person is trying

• How to decide what to do next
