Why You Struggle to Believe They'll Change

Have you ever caught yourself reacting to your spouse based on who they were, not who they are becoming?

Maybe they’ve started making real changes…
They’re listening more.
They’re apologizing quicker.
They’re trying harder.

But you can’t quite trust it.
Because in your heart, you’re still holding a mental Polaroid—a frozen snapshot of their past mistakes, failures, or flaws.

Here’s the hard truth: growth takes time—but so does trust.
And if we keep looking at our partner through the lens of who they used to be, we’ll sabotage the healing that’s happening right now.

You’re not the only one struggling with this dynamic—and you don’t have to fix it alone.
My 6-month Marriage in Bloom recovery program is designed to help couples rebuild connection, safety, and belief in each other again.

Because real love doesn't just say, "You've hurt me."
It also says, "I'm willing to see who you're becoming."
