What happens when one partner wants to end the relationship—and the other doesn’t? 

In this powerful episode of the Roadmap to Secure Love podcast, Kimberly Castelo and Kyle Benson explore the emotional heartbreak of surviving unwanted separation and how to begin healing when you're not ready to let go.

💔 Challenges We Explore:

• The shock of being blindsided by a partner’s decision to separate
• Feeling stuck in grief when the relationship still matters to you
• Navigating despair when your partner won’t agree to therapy or discernment counseling
• Managing pressure from friends to “move on” before you’re ready
• Finding the strength to sit with your pain without trying to fix it
  
  

✨ Key Takeaways:

• Welcome grief as a friend—it’s not a weakness, it’s part of healing
• Set emotional boundaries—especially when others push you to move forward too quickly
• Surround yourself with people who can sit in the grief with you
• Trust your body’s process—healing has no set timeline
• You are resilient—and there is hope on the other side of this pain

Whether you’re in the middle of a separation or supporting someone through it, this episode offers a compassionate roadmap for honoring your emotions and beginning the slow, real process of healing.
