When Your Partner Won’t Set Boundaries With the Ex

Your partner won’t set boundaries with their high conflict ex, and somehow… you’re the one stuck in the middle.

Whether they’re avoiding confrontation, still emotionally entangled, or simply too worn down to fight – you're absorbing the cost. You’ve tried helping, tried fixing, maybe even taken over the communication just to keep things from falling apart. But now the weight of it all is falling on you.

In this episode, we unpack why your partner might be avoiding boundaries, how your well-intentioned help may have locked you into an unsustainable role, and what to do next. 

You’ll learn how to step back, and how to talk to your partner in a way they’ll actually hear.
