Why Decentring Men Will Strengthen Your Relationship (Not End It)

from Put Yourself First · host Kat Horrocks

Register for the workshop - https://www.khorrocks.com/workshopSay "decentring men" and most people picture single women, healing, done with dating. But what happens when you're married? When you're in it, and you love him, and he's a genuinely good one?This week I'm making the case that decentring men matters more once you're partnered - not less. Because the sneaky version isn't the dramatic breakup. It's the quiet, years-long slide into building a whole life around him without ever noticing you did it.I'm talking through why this hits hardest for women carrying shared responsibility - the joint mortgage, the joint calendar, the "who's picking up the kids" of it all - and the exact ways it shows up: the permission-asking, the disappearing hobbies, the vision board you stopped updating for yourself.I'll walk you through what I actually do in my own relationship, what I've watched clients do, and I've got some reflection prompts for you at the end if you want to sit with this properly.Fair warning - if you've been playing the cool, low-maintenance girlfriend, or the devoted wife who puts everyone else first, this one might sting a bit. That's alright. Stay with it.Mentioned in this episode:My free live workshop, Resentful to Radiant - for women ready to stop feeling like his roommate and start feeling like the hottest woman in the room again.Thursday 3rd September, 8pm UK time, live on Zoom.👉 Register here - https://www.khorrocks.com/workshopIf you sign up after listening, drop me a DM on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/kat_horrocks/] and say hi - I want to know you're coming!
