    Have you ever been paralyzed by the fear of making the "wrong" decision about your relationship(s)?

    Maybe you're considering leaving your marriage, ending an affair, or making another significant change in your relationship status. And maybe the fear of regret is keeping you stuck.

    Making major relationship decisions can feel like standing at the edge of a cliff, knowing that once you jump, there's no going back.

    213: Beginnings and Endings
    Apr 10 2025

    Is it really okay to end something that's working well?

    After much consideration, I've decided to pause production of Your Secret is Safe With Me indefinitely while I pursue new creative endeavors.

    This decision wasn't made because anything is wrong—quite the opposite.

    My experience with this transition mirrors what many of my clients face in their relationships and life choices. There's often a belief that we shouldn't end something that's "good enough" or that we must finish everything we've started. But what if the most faithful act to ourselves is allowing evolution, even when it means leaving something valuable behind?

    This final episode explores the legitimacy of change and the permission we all deserve to give ourselves when moving in new directions.

    If you're struggling with a decision that feels impossible because both options have value, this episode is for you.
