You worked hard to build the dream—the home, the business, the family, the life you both said you wanted. But now, something feels… off. You’ve checked all the boxes, yet you’re looking around wondering, “Is this still what we want—or just what we said we wanted?”

In this week’s episode of Relationship Reset, we’re talking about what happens when high-achieving couples realize they’ve outgrown their original dream—and how to realign your shared vision so it actually fits who you are now.

Katie shares the story of Mark and Elena, a couple who built a beautiful life together only to realize their dream no longer matched the people they’d become. From that powerful moment came a process to help couples pivot with purpose instead of panic.

You’ll learn:

  • How to recognize when success has become a mask for disconnection
  • Why identity shifts are a natural (and healthy) part of long-term love
  • A practical 3-step “Vision Realignment Process” to reset your shared goals

This conversation is your reminder that growth doesn’t mean failure—it means evolution. Your relationship isn’t ending; it’s asking for an upgrade.
