54. The Time I Almost Left My Marriage

Do you have what it takes to choose authenticity over acceptability? The pressure of keeping appearances as relationship goals and the fear of what others will think is what stops us from leaving bad relationships/marriages. But for you to start living authentically, there are inauthentic things you must be willing to walk away from.

In this episode of the For Kick-Ass Women Only podcast, we talk about why sometimes you must stop compromising and walk towards what is authentic. Having the courage to walk away from any relationship or circumstance that you have created an identity around is hard but worth it when pursuing your next-level life.

Listen in to learn why you must have some non-negotiables in your marriage that you continue to work on constantly to avoid inauthenticity.
