My partner and I have been through a really difficult year — job loss, health scares, family drama — and we keep reading about resilience practices but we handle stress completely differently and what helps me (talking through everything) seems to drain him, and what helps him (going quiet and processing internally) makes me feel shut out. We're both trying to bounce back but we're not bouncing back together.
More people experience this than they realize.
Two people are trying to build resilience together but their fundamentally different stress responses and coping mechanisms are creating distance instead of mutual support.

Peri can explain why this happens, help you decide if this is the right situation for you, and point toward the right journey or coach.
If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
