\nCORE ISSUES<\/span> \u2013<\/strong><\/em> The core issues are what each of you keep coming back to in nearly every painful situation you encounter!\u00a0 Each person\u2019s core issue is based on what wounds they sustained early in their life – fears and insecurities like, \u201cI\u2019m a bad person\u201d or \u201cI\u2019m not good enough\u201d, or \u201cI\u2019m going to get abandoned\u201d, or \u201cPeople don\u2019t like me\u201d.\u00a0 Most people have no idea that these messages are burning down deep inside of them and are driving everything they are doing and saying in an argument.<\/p>\n
\nTo know what is at the heart of your marital issues, you have to know yourself<\/strong><\/em> and your spouse has to know themself really well, too.\u00a0 This takes some time and personal reflection to figure it out.\u00a0 Without someone to help gently guide you down into the scary dark waters below the surface, you may never discover what the core issues are!\u00a0 \u00a0When the core issues are known, however, you can quickly and easily get right to the heart of each others’ feelings and, not only will you be able to resolve conflicts more easily, you will be able to love and be loved the way you were meant to be!!<\/p>\n
