When “Not Bad Enough” Becomes the Costliest Choice

A woman in my circle recently told me she stayed in her marriage for almost twenty years because, “it wasn’t bad enough to leave.” Not “good” but “not bad enough”.
She hosted dinner parties, kept the house spotless, posted smiling photos from family vacations. She convinced herself that “good enough” was easier than starting over. That it was safer to keep what she had than to want what she didn’t.
But what she did not realize then was that her life wasn't a life at all. It was a death by a thousand paper cuts.
Each time she lowered her expectations, swallowed her words, settled for less, she slowly moved farther and farther from the life she could have had.
What she knows now is this: The cost of staying the same is far higher than the cost of change.
What she knows now is the space between what she had and what she wanted was outrageously closer than she expected- that managing her marriage was actually so much harder than finally leaving it.
👉 I’ve dedicated my career to helping women like her collapse the distance between the life they’re tolerating and the life they wildly, unapologetically want.
And right now, I have a very private invitation for you. This experience was first shared only with my closest VIP circle and every single woman I offered it to booked immediately. Which means there are only a few spaces left, and they will go.
