#45 - What To Do When Your Significant Other Isn’t Healthy

What to do when you and your significant are out of sync in the health realm?  

This topic sure can get touchy!  Many of you tell us how hard it is to make changes when it seems like those around you couldn't care less.  Especially when it’s the love of our life!  

We get it... at different times it’s been challenging for us too!

We also know trying to exert change on an unwilling person is a recipe for disaster. 

And when we do, it leaves us feeling frustrated, unsupported, and unloving...Not exactly our best selves!

So can you have health goals even when your significant other doesn’t?   

We think so.  

Here are a few points we cover:

• How your health choices affect others paired with your expectations of them.
• The role of awareness, acknowledgment, and control play in our desire to change others. 
• How to apply what you’ve learned to communicate your desire to change YOU.
• How to flip the mindset to cultivate relational health
