When couples struggle to support each other's major life commitments

My partner and I both committed to major life changes this year — she's starting her own business and I'm going back to school — but we keep sabotaging each other's progress with our anxiety about money and time, and I think we're both more afraid of succeeding than we want to admit.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people committed to growth are discovering that their individual fears create a shared resistance that undermines the very changes they both claim to want.
