Author Becky Whetstone - I Think I Want Out Now

from The Best Ever You Show · host Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino and Dr. Katie Eastman

Becky Whetstone, Ph.D. is a marriage and family therapist in private practice who specializes in trauma, codependency, and marriage crisis. A journalist and former features writer and columnist for the San Antonio Express-News, she created a singles movement dedicated toward kindness, decency, and integrity in dating that became a south Texas phenomenon. Among the 600,000 annual divorces that transpire within the United States, almost all of them begin with a marriage crisis. Whether your partner told you they want to leave the marriage, or you are wondering how to break the news that you want out, this breaking point can be filled with overwhelming emotions, worry about children becoming collateral damage, and ill-advised counseling that make navigating this process more frightening and confusing than it has to be. These heartbreaking times can propel couples into a state of fear, panic, and uncertainty about what steps they should take, sometimes leading them to divorce when reconciliation might have been possible. Known as the “Marriage Crisis Manager,” marriage and family therapist Becky Whetstone fills in these gaps by speaking to both partners on how to manage themselves and their relationship in the healthiest of ways, regardless of the eventual outcome. In I (Think) I Want Out, Whetstone’s coaching offers clear understanding on why everyone feels crazy and overwhelmed during one of life’s most difficult experiences. By promoting peacefulness and self-care, she emphasizes the importance of both partners slowing down throughout the process. With engaging exercises and worksheets, Whetstone organizes an intelligent plan so all parties can successfully manage the crisis in a way where smart, rational decision-making can take place, and mistakes are minimized.  Visit: https://doctorbecky.comSubscribe, share, and be part of a global movement to live with more peace, purpose, and gratitude.Learn more: https://www.BestEverYou.comExplore The Peace Guidebook + free gifts: https://www.BestEverYou.com/giftsJoin the Practical Peace Masterclass: https://www.besteveryou.com/peacemasterclassFollow Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino and Dr. Katie Eastman for more inspiration, tools, and real-life conversations on peace, change, success, and gratitude.Peace isn’t something you find.It’s something you practice.
