You are where you are supposed to be
You are where you are supposed to be. I was separated, living in isolation at our cabin, family and friends reached out occasionally, and I was forced to build an unknown future I did not see as being better than existing. My brother-in-law explained TPM leading to Navigate program. I joined as a personal growth opportunity. I set up a morning routine (ARS) and it began to fill my cup. Understanding the Defensiveness and how I was protecting my image was defined in DEER and I began to have better conversations with my wife. Humbly, some WOLF began to immerge and my wife notice some changes she could not ignore because it was the man she had hoped for since we took our vows 28 years earlier. Inner work is the key to a better and more fulfilling life. John

John, thank you for sharing something this personal. Going from isolation and uncertainty to rebuilding yourself from the inside takes tremendous courage. It is powerful to hear how the Navigate program, ARS, and DEER gave you practical ways to shift how you were showing up and helped create better conversations with your wife. And hearing that she began to see the man she had hoped for throughout your 28 years together is incredibly meaningful. You did the inner work, and the people closest to you began to feel the difference. Grateful you found TPM when you did and proud of the path you are continuing to walk.
