When I was on the brink of divorcing my husband, I was desperate to end the pain of constantly feeling rejected and lonely. I also hoped to escape the financial chaos we were stuck in and dreamed of finding a man who would better match me than the Loser Pants I had married.<\/p>\n
Convinced it was my husband\u2019s fault that I was so unhappy, I managed to avoid looking at my own contributions to the tension, hostility and pain in my marriage. I was sure I was the \u201cgood\u201d spouse–the marriage counselor even said so.<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t realize I was avoiding the door marked \u201cReflect on Your Shortcomings,\u201d and I would have gone on my self-righteous way if my marriage hadn\u2019t been failing.<\/p>\n
Looking back, I realize that I not only contributed to the breakdown in my marriage, I was chipping away at the intimacy and connection on a daily basis.<\/p>\n
Nobody had ever taught me the Six Intimacy Skills\u2122 critical to having a playful, passionate relationship. My parents are divorced, so I was following a failed recipe. Maybe nobody has ever taught you either.<\/p>\n
The good news is that the aching heartbreak in my marriage led to an incredible, transformative journey that I never would have taken any other way.<\/p>\n
Today I\u2019m deeply grateful for the breakdown and for the woman I\u2019ve become as a result.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s why I\u2019m so passionate about ending world divorce and why I started an international coaching company, writing several books to make sure every woman knows how to prevent a divorce by making her marriage amazing.<\/p>\n
