19. “My husband has been promising that we’ll buy a house in a few months… for five years”

19. “My husband has been promising that we’ll buy a house in a few months… for five years”

Brian is a struggling tech entrepreneur and relies on his wife, Serena, a physician with a stable income of $235,000, to support his family. Serena wants Brian to get a job and admit that his start-up isn’t working. She's extremely focused — perhaps too focused — on buying a house. Brian doesn't like saying “No” to Serena, so he evades questions and promises that everything will change "4-6 months from now," but after seven years, Serena's patience is running thin. Can you spot the red flags? Listen to the resentment and distrust in her voice. Brian's promises to get a job and turn things around are falling flat. What's worse is that he can't even see it. I'm not going to sugarcoat it; it's heartbreaking to watch a seemingly successful couple totally disconnected from each other. I'm determined to get them on the same page. Tune in to see how their story unfolds. We started the conversation focusing on Serena’s dream to buy a house sooner rather than later, but it becomes apparent that the house is a distraction from the deeper desire to have a partner on the same page as her.
