Joining us as a guest expert this week is Kongit Farrell, a Marriage & Family Therapist. Kongit has over 13 years of experience as a mental health professional and works with individuals and couples, as well as businesses and health organizations. In conversation with Kogit is true crime producer Jeff Shane. 34 year-old Joanne Witt was a gifted engineer working for El Dorado County, CA when she became pregnant with a man she was casually dating. She dumped the man but kept the baby, a beautiful daughter who she named Tylar. Raising Tylar as a single mother, it was clear to all that Joanne's world revolved around her daughter. The two were inseparable and from the outside they seemed like a real life Gilmore Girls. But by 2009, Tylar was 14 years-old and had hit full rebellious teen mode. Soon, Joanne would learn just how far Tylar would go to have her own way.

Do you follow your "Yes?"Following your "Yes" is about you taking a step forward in your partnerships by taking action and applying at least one thing you heard from our guests during their interviews this week. On today’s episode, all of this week’s guests have generously provided BONUS MATERIAL, not included in the interviews you listened to earlier this week. Each one has provided incredible examples of the power of following your “Yes”.  Enjoy! Kongit Farrell (https://speakingofpartnership.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/E_MP_9165_kongit-1.jpg)  Not Following - Even after Kongit had all the training and knowledge on how to have a healthy relationship, she still had one other trip up where she didn’t follow her “Yes”. She was in a relationship with someone who had a completely opposite vision than she did. She was so attracted to this person that she pushed her internal guidance aside. She was hoping to help change his ways with her wit but it was hopeless. She didn’t follow her “Yes” and was in a dead end relationship because of it. Following - Kongit’s easiest “Yes” was when she said yes to marrying her husband. Everything felt right, they both had the same vision, and they fit so well together. Everything felt so natural for her when she was around him and she didn’t have to think about it. She simply followed her heart and married the greatest man.  Listen to Kongit’s interview here (https://speakingofpartnership.com/188-kongit-farrell/) Connect with Kongit - Kongit's website (http://www.kongitfarrell.com) Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/kongitfarrell/) Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/KongitFarrell/) Twitter (https://twitter.com/kongitfarrell?lang=en) Tamara Green & David Dachinger  (https://speakingofpartnership.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Blue-15-LD-1-e1504716562209.jpg) Not Following - Tamara tells us about a time 4 years after they got married, they weren’t communicating very well and were almost every night upset with one another. Each of them were listening to someone else on what they should do. Each time she listened to this person, she would feel it was further and further away from what she’d believe. After some time when they were on the brinks of divorce, she told herself to listen to her own gut, and that’s where things started to turn around for the better. Listen to the interview to hear of a time when David didn’t follow his “Yes”. Following - David tells us of a time when he was a volunteer firefighter. He had come to realize that he was able to jump over one state and pursue a career in firefighting and simultaneously hold down his other career being a composer. He was getting a strong “Yes” when thinking about pursuing this. He ultimately did, tested for it and got the job. He was able to do what he loved being both a firefighter and composer.

She works with couples to repair and transform their marriages after painful infidelity, lack of sexual intimacy and turmoil from family problems sabotaging their relationships.

Kongit has been happily married for ten years and she and her husband are expecting the arrival of their first baby soon. Guiding Principle, Quote or Mantra Active listening. A Time When You Tripped Up Kongit has always had that therapist vibe. Even when she was very young, people would ask for her advice. She knew she had that gift but wasn’t sure about what field to pursue. She came from a broken family, divorced parents, and a single mom. In her teens to early twenties, she was having unhealthy relationships with anyone who she dated. She couldn’t figure out why that was happening. she had come to realize that she has never had a proper relationship template. She didn’t know how to communicate, she didn’t know how to plan for a healthy relationship, and didn’t know how to make the proper selections. Find out how Kongit turned this around by listening to her interview. That “Duh” Moment in Partnership Kongit goes back to that time where she was really struggling with her misaligned visions and goals. She remembers one relationship in particular where her partner had really different views on relationships. He didn’t want to be in a committed relationship and he wan’t to see other people. She kept approaching the situation like “Why do you want to see other people? Why am I not good enough for you? Why do you not want to be in a relationship with me?”. After some time she realized that it wasn’t at all about her. It could have been any woman in the world. He just didn’t want to be in a relationship. Proudest Moment in Partnership She describes her proudest moment being her entire courtship with her husband. She had put so much work into understanding her patterns and finding her vision, and now everything had paid off. When her and her husband first started to know each other, she felt great going into it, felt confident with everything, and it resulted in her finding her person.
