618. How Marriage Changes Your Health Results

The Female Health Solution Podcast

Where are my married ladies?! Really, this applies to any long term relationship...

My husband and I have been together for over 20 years and our relationship has seen some high highs and low lows. My health journey has been greatly impacted by these seasons and I am sure you can relate.

There is an extreme significance in having a supportive partner when working towards your health goals. And you better believe it applies to the opposite as well, more on that below.

I believe that a supportive partner can make a world of difference in helping a woman reach their healthiest selves. There are significant challenges women face when they have unsupportive partners, as it can create obstacles along the way.

I am talking about things like ortisol/stress issues, time management issues, sabotage and more...

In this episode, I share personal stories and examples from my clinical practice where husbands/partners either actively support their wives' health journey or hinder it.

I also dive into how some women manage to push forward with their health goals despite unsupportive partners, while others may find it more difficult. This is your sign to look for potential red flags in relationships that can impede health progress, such as partners who try to use control to keep you from getting healthier.

I want women facing these challenges to know you are not alone and there are a number of ways to seek support.

This is actually something that many of my personal clients navigate during our work together. If you'd like to know more about my upcoming Hormone Solution program, join the waitlist here: https://drbethwestie.com/fhs-waitlist/
