329. Should I Stay or Should I Go? Finding Relationship Clarity with Karyn Spetz

Most women I know have asked some version of this question at some point in their primary relationship. And if you haven't, you almost certainly have a friend who has. In this episode, I sit down with Karyn Spetz — a licensed clinical social worker and certified relationship coach — to talk honestly about what's really happening beneath the 'should I stay or should I go?' question. Not the dramatic version. The quiet, lingering, exhausting version that a lot of women carry alone for way too long. This conversation isn't about pushing anyone to leave or convincing anyone to stay. It's about clarity, self-trust, and learning to come back to yourself when everyone around you has an opinion on what you should do next. As a business coach, I can tell you — I have not had a single client whose primary relationship wasn't part of the conversation at some point. How we show up inside our most important long-term relationship shapes everything else: our confidence, our clarity, and our capacity to build something. This one matters. If this is you right now — welcome. And if it isn't, go ahead and send this to a girlfriend who needs it.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why personal growth so often triggers the should I stay or should I go question Why the second-guessing loop doesn't mean your instincts are broken How the "good girl" pattern keeps women silent — and what it quietly costs them Why the conversations we're not having with our partners may be the most important ones of all How to start rebuilding self-trust so you can move forward with clarity   KARYN'S 6-WEEK PROGRAM If this conversation is speaking to you, Karyn's intensive six-week program — Should I Stay or Should I Go? — is built for exactly this moment. It's designed to help you reconnect with yourself, stop the second-guessing, feel more confident, and know your next steps one way or another. No guilt, no pressure, no agenda.
