This is a very common issue most of us face at some point.
It can be challenging when one person is interested in personal growth or self-improvement and the other isn't. While it's important to respect your partner's decision and their autonomy, there are a few things you can consider:
Communicate openly: Talk to your partner about why coaching sessions are important to you and how they can benefit both of you as individuals and as a couple. Listen to their perspective and try to understand their reasons for not wanting to participate.
Find common ground: Explore if there are any aspects of coaching that your partner might be more open to. For example, they might be interested in attending a specific type of workshop or participating in a different form of personal development that aligns with their interests.
Compromise: If your partner is completely unwilling to join coaching sessions, consider finding a middle ground. You can still attend coaching sessions on your own and respect their decision while maintaining open communication about what you're learning and how it's impacting you.
Seek support for yourself: If your partner is not interested in joining coaching sessions, you can explore other avenues of personal growth and support. Look for coaching sessions, therapy, workshops, seminars, or communities that align with your goals and provide the support you need.
Remember that personal growth is an individual journey, and while it's wonderful to have a partner who supports and joins you, it's not always possible. Focus on your own development while also nurturing your relationship through understanding, respect, and shared experiences outside of coaching sessions.
Best, Juliana
