Why Agreements Fail: Finding Strength Amidst a Partner's Addiction

It's not your job to force them to change their decisions. You're not going to convince the tornado to go around your town. So the way you let them make their choices without accepting that behavior in your life is by setting healthy boundaries.
Ever felt like you're banging your head against a wall trying to get your partner to stick to an agreement about their addiction? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Your Partner's Addiction', Certified Life Coach Karilyn Ivers Tracy sheds light on why agreements often fall flat and leave you feeling frustrated and resentful. Karilyn argues that the real problem isn't the lack of commitment from your partner but the flawed premise of trying to enforce change through agreements.
Instead, she offers a fresh perspective on how to set healthy boundaries and focus on your own well-being. Karilyn emphasizes that your sense of safety and peace comes from your own thoughts and actions, not from controlling your partner's behavior. This episode is packed with practical advice on how to navigate the complexities of a relationship affected by addiction. Whether you're contemplating staying or leaving, Karilyn's insights will help you find clarity and emotional freedom.
Tune in for a compassionate yet empowering discussion that challenges conventional wisdom and offers a path to personal growth.
