Divorce, Uncoupling and Separation
Arguments, uncertainty, fear, misunderstanding, unheard, sex-less, unromantic, where did our love go...
You have probably only found your way to this page if you feel like change is needed. Consider the following two very different marriage definitions…
- Expansive and worth aspiring to -- Healthy relationships are not based on neediness but on the passion and excitement of sharing the journey towards becoming a whole person. (Gawain)
- Contracted and certain to cause grief -- Marriage is a process in which two individuals renegotiate who they are with respect to each other and the world around them (Berger)
How do you view your significant relationship? Are you Ready for change? or maybe ready to take your relationship to a new level with Life Coaching for Couples?
Coaching offers ultimate support through big life changes. Probably the biggest change that we can make to our lives is to choose to fix our relationship or to divorce, separate or split up from our partner.
Life coaching can be very effective at providing a backdrop of support, certainty, understanding, comfort and strategy while you make such a challenging change. Significant relationship change (choosing to stay-in or out!) is a common reason why clients choose to work with Great Life Coach. Of course there are two sides to the coin, and coaching can help and support people in both sides of a relationship transition.
Happy Relationship or Unhappy Relationship?
Still reading!? Every relationship has rhythms, including a beginning, middle and end! Life Coaching will get you back in touch with your Self, enabling you to authentically decide if your relationship can be turned into one of common purpose, ease and flow, or if it has come to a natural end and it is time to move on.
Many people have lost themSelves in their relationship. The relationship is no longer a supporting environment of mutual-growth.

What's your Bottom Line?
If you feel like you have been holding yourself in an untenable relationship situation for too long. Have you ever thought about understanding what your limits are? What is your Bottom Line? If your partner crosses that line you must act.
Search your heart and fill in the blanks...
"If my partner did
_________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
then I'd feel I'd have to leave the relationship."
"If my partner didn't do
_________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
then I'd feel I'd have to leave the relationship."
"If these things were true about my partner --
_________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
--- then I'd feel I'd have to leave the relationship."
Share your bottom line with your partner, and at some agreed time ask the question "Has my partner violated my bottom line?".
Does your relationship have a purpose?
What is your common goal? Is your relationship- purpose supporting your own life purpose and personal evolution? Or is it suffocating it?
Coaching will help you decide what action needs to be taken from the centred clarity of yourSelf. We will of course evaluate if the relationship can be saved and then deploy a supported plan accordingly. If you decide that it is time to move on, then with your renewed confidence, coaching can help you put together a plan and then execute that plan with unwavering support. In every case we can design your new life or re-invention and deploy the plan to get you there. Sometimes divorce or separation is explored as a part of a midlife crisis.
There are many relationship books, support services and therapies available to you, and in many cases these may be more appropriate for you than Life Coaching – a choice that only you can know.
Life Coaching focuses on engaging with your Self, designing your future and then moving into action to make it happen. It is not a substitute for couples therapy, therapy or legal services, but can act as a supporting agent for you as you use all these other services. If you feel ready to fix your relationship the following book is highly recommended. If it Hurts it isn't Love, by C. Spezzano.
I also offer life coaching specifically for men or women separately.
If you are looking to change your life situation, if you describe yourself as lost, stuck, AMBIVALENT or caught in a relationship complexity you may find my Happiness Compass of great value. It's a great way to get started!
