This week, I continue on with the story I began last week.
Now only will you hear how I got CLEAR so I was able to move forward, you will hear a sincere apology I offered to my husband.
Getting unSTUCK and Getting CLEAR is never about putting someone else down in order to make you look good. But in last week’s episode, I am afraid I missed my intention and so I publicly share that process with you as well.

I was anxious to listen to this episode. I so totally disagree with you and the way this was handled. I feel that you should always take your husbands back over and above a strangers. I also would have been totally upset knowing that I was “ being taken” by the gardeners unscrupulous costs which only gave him more fuel to move forward and take advantage of the next client. Just had to put my two cents in.
Thank you for sharing. I do appreciate your honesty as always. Although I am curious as to your thoughts on the worth or value of your word: one person to another. And the fact that no one pressured us to hire this man. We hired him without doing any homework.
As an extreme example, if you learned that your husband was doing something that you believed was unethical (let’s say he was shooting a gun at someone), would you have his back?
I hear what you are saying, and in general I aim to have my husband’s back, but in this situation, I didn’t feel like I aligned with him ethically. It was a dilemma.
The P.S. to this story was, I got another quote once the work was done, and the person I wanted to hire originally quote us 1500 shekels MORE than what our gardener did! So his price was actually totally fair!
