074: When Life Changes with Dr. Gill Barham
After 38 years together, Dr. Gill Barham has three things that made her relationship extraordinary no matter the situation.
The first one started even before they got married and that’s setting the intention. There’s no such an option for divorce. However, Dr. Gill is smart (and not just stuck in old ways). She realizes that not all marriages are meant to stay together, for example, maybe her parents should have divorced…
The second thing is a compromise. The question is if compromise means giving in to much? Well, for someone who’s a people pleaser, like Dr. Gill, that’s a hard one to answer. How much is it about giving in and how much is about understanding the other person?
How about when things change? Babies come, kids grow up, new jobs are started, we’re ready to retire. What about when menopause hits? If you’ve got that understanding of yourself, your partner, and the situation, you’ll be able to know if it’s the right time to put boundaries, try new things or keep things as calm as possible.
The third one gets tricky – what comes first love or mutual respect? Well, you’ve got to have both (together with added lust!) in order to make your marriage a success.
Dr. Gill Barham is an international award-winning author, speaker, speaker trainer, broadcast presenter, Elite Holistic Health Coach, and advocates for self–care. She is the host of the Podcast “Radiant Menopause” designed to debunk myths, inform and educate women, (and men) on what to expect of the transition into midlife. Her goal is to empower women to make the most of their “wisdom” years.
Her humanitarian work currently involves running a domestic abuse awareness campaign called SPOT THE SIGNS - during lockdown and beyond. This is supported by her other podcast “The Life you Deserve” where she interviews experts and survivors highlighting ways in which we can recognise violence in the home and support potential victims.
