More Musings on What Makes An Amazing Marriage

"Go love someone exactly as they are and then watch how quickly they transform into the greatest, truest version of themselves."

"You can't change what's going on around you but you can change what's going on within you."

Last Years’ Day 2 blog on what makes an "amazing" marriage

Amazingness is when you both get to be your beautiful selves.

Accept and allow your partner to be exactly as he or she is.

Learn to not want to change or fix them.

You can just be.

He or she can just be.

You can enjoy each other.

You can notice and appreciate one another.

You can love and support one another in ways that feel good to the giver from a place of love and compassion and free will.

No duty. No obligation.

An amazing marriage doesn’t mean it's all amazing.

No one is perfect.

No one “accepts and allows” perfectly.

We are all perfectly imperfect.

Serve up lots of grace and compassion all around.

Mindfulness and marriage take and are a practice.

They are a lifestyle.

Just as all lifestyle choices do, they take learning, effort, and often guidance (coaching) is needed.

5 years ago coaching helped me transform my marriage (and all my other relationships and my life too).

It was such a powerful and effective tool, I pivoted career paths from medicine to coaching to share these tools with others. As a pediatrician, promoting peace, harmony, and health in humans and families is a mission of mine.

Coaching is the key to finding peace, calm, connection, and joy in work, life, and relationships. It's a key to improving life right now and for the next generation. I would love to share it with you.

There are lots of options to work with me- what will work best for you?

1:1 coaching over time, resetting on a retreat, or a small group focused on transforming challenging relationships into mindful ones. We all need different things at different times in our life. I am not one size fits all. Reach out to explore which option might work best for you. Please don’t keep struggling and missing out on calm, peace, and connection.
