Do I Stay Or Do I Go? - Lyn Smith & Sherrie Gilbert-Ramsey

Published: Sept. 9, 2020, 11 p.m.

Lyn talks with Sherrie Gilbert-Ramsey, a coach known as “The CSI of Self-Discovery”, who specialises in helping others to find direction in their lives when they are feeling lost. Sherrie’s experience has come on the back of years of law enforcement work, which has since transformed into a long career in coaching, during which she has seen and helped many women decide whether to stay or to leave unhealthy relationships. In this episode, Sherrie discusses this crucial dilemma, which affects so many women globally. KEY TAKEAWAYS The motivations for any actions, right or wrong, are born out of our life experiences. We must consider the story that came before the event, in trying to determine the best way of treating an individual. The first step before deciding whether to leave a relationship, is to examine the relationship we have with ourselves, and deciding whether or not the root problem is something we are projecting internally or externally. 75% of people end up staying in the relationship once work has commenced. 25% leave, which demonstrates that if both parties are willing to work at it, relationships can be salvaged. At the beginning of the relationship, we have an opportunity to establish boundaries and set guidelines for the other. It is vital that this work is done at the outset. A relationship is meant to nourish. It should improve us and inspire us to be better. If this isn’t the case, then it may be time to work on it, or consider leaving. BEST MOMENTS ‘I need to know if I need to make a decision about staying - or should I go?’ ‘You should always be inspired to be a better person because of your relationship' ‘I have dug deep into the past. That’s where the real investigative work begins’ ‘A relationship is an investment’ VALUABLE RESOURCES Hearts Entwined Podcast Apple Podcasts (iTunes) Spotify Stitcher ABOUT THE GUEST Sherrie Gilbert-Ramsey Sherrie's view is radically different.  Due to her unique set of skills as a Law Enforcement Officer for 20 years and a Therapist for 16 years, she can understand and provide insight on a variety of relationship issues going on for people today.
