Without Losing Your Cool with Shantelle Bisson
Without Losing Your Cool Unfiltered is a lifestyle show where you'll feel seen and heard. It is that gentle reminder that you are not alone on this beautiful complex, wonderful journey called life.
And I, Shantelle Bisson am your host for this adventure: I'm a 55 year old serial entrepreneur, a three time author, mother to three adult daughters and married for more than three decades. Good things come in threes.
My motto is: "Life is messy, but we don't have to be." Every WLYC Unfiltered podcast episode explores this truth: That anything is possible when we build a strong community around ourselves. And when we also remember, to live life, and find the silver lining and humour in the stuff that we take too seriously.

Without Losing Your Cool with Shantelle Bisson
036. Is Your Relationship Still Worth It?
If you've been in a long-term relationship, a relationship with a parent, a sibling, or a friend, every relationship gets to that point where you have to ask yourself, “is it worth it anymore?”
It can be so hard to think about and question if your relationship is worth fighting for, or injecting more energy into? And is there really any more you can get out of it?
We meet people for a reason, a season or a lifetime, and yet somehow, when it comes to making that decision, it’s the most difficult one to answer.
As you know if you’ve been around for a while, Yannick and I are closing in on 35 years together. And I would be lying if I said we’ve never had the talk about ‘if this is still worth it’.
In this episode we talk about how to dig deep and ask each other the really hard questions. When it feels like a failed ending, there can be a tremendous amount of guilt. You may know exactly what you want, and yet can’t seem to make the very hard choices you know you need to.
We talk about:
- [0:00] Intro
- [1:40] What to do if you're questioning if a relationship is worth fighting for
- [4:25] What to do when you're spiraling about if your partner is still right for you
- [5:30] Why the inner work matters when it comes to sustaining a relationship
- [10:15] Recognizing the stories in your mind vs. truth and reality
- [12:10] Knowing when and how your relationship needs to change
- [14:05] The one exercise to help your marriage tremendously
- [20:20] What's holding you back in making your decisions?
