Overcoming Struggles and Rebuilding Trust: A Journey of Healing for Couples

July 11, 2023 by Adam Robison

Today, we have the pleasure of hosting Brad and Gretchen Lindsay, an extraordinary couple who have turned their own challenging life experiences into a mission to help others as couples coaches in Northwest Arkansas. In this candid conversation, Brad and Gretchen share their remarkable journey of healing and provide valuable insights into rebuilding trust and maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

Gretchen begins by recounting their personal story, filled with instances of emotional and physical violence, family difficulties, addiction struggles, and multiple affairs. They navigated these challenges and sought help through books, Bible studies, and retreats, only to be met with disheartening disclaimers that their problems were too severe to be addressed. Undeterred, Gretchen’s determination to avoid the fate of her father’s multiple marriages and build a healthy relationship fueled her quest for answers.

The conversation then shifts to the critical topic of rebuilding trust when it has been shattered in a relationship. Brad and Gretchen emphasize the importance of rupture and repair, a concept they learned from Dr. Karen Pervis. They explain that even small ruptures in connection can be addressed by circling back and offering apologies or repair attempts. By starting with smaller issues and gradually working towards more challenging conversations, couples can create a safe space for healing and rebuilding trust.

Adam delves deeper, acknowledging the impact of maintaining a healthy work-life balance on relationships. Brad and Gretchen share their own experiences, highlighting the choices they made to prioritize their relationship amidst demanding schedules and responsibilities. They emphasize the significance of self-care, including proper nutrition, sunlight exposure, and quality sleep, as crucial elements for regulating mood and fostering healthier connections.

In the latter part of the conversation, Brad expresses his passion for helping veterans and their families. Recognizing the alarming statistic of 22 veterans committing suicide each day, Brad and Gretchen offer discounted coaching services for veteran couples. Their future goal is to provide one-for-one scholarships, ensuring that for every couple they help, they will also support a veteran family in need.

As the episode concludes, Adam requests a success story from Brad and Gretchen to offer hope and inspiration to listeners. They share the remarkable transformation of a family they worked with, whose relationship was on the verge of tragedy. Through their interventions and guidance, this couple found healing, safety, and hope. The couple expressed their gratitude, acknowledging that their lives might have taken a tragic turn if they hadn’t crossed paths with Brad and Gretchen.

Join Brad and Gretchen Lindsay, as they offer a beacon of hope for couples seeking to rebuild trust, find balance, and create fulfilling relationships.
