You want to save your marriage, but your spouse doesn’t seem interested. What now?

In this powerful episode, Kimberly Beam Holmes and Dr. Joe Beam walk you step-by-step through how to approach your spouse about working on the marriage—even if they’ve checked out, are asking for a divorce, or are involved with someone else.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Overcome the fear of asking your spouse for help
  • Avoid common mistakes that push your spouse further away
  • Use a proven, non-manipulative framework to invite your spouse to a Marriage Helper workshop
  • Understand and validate your spouse’s objections—while staying calm, confident, and respectful
  • Identify your spouse’s true motivations (even ones you don’t agree with) and speak to what matters most to them

Plus, discover how to navigate tricky objections like:

  • “I don’t believe in counseling”
  • “This won’t fix anything”
  • “It’s too expensive”
  • “I just want the divorce”

Whether your spouse is emotionally distant, hostile, or seemingly indifferent, this video gives you the tools and confidence to take the next right step without manipulation or pressure.
