Angela explained that she had been trying to sell her investment properties, but the emotional, physical, and financial toll was "too much." She has since reduced the price on all of the homes and has accepted that she will "just lose them."

"These houses have put a strain on our marriage," Angela said. "Because I'm constantly asking Charles to pump more money into these properties, and now he's at a point where he doesn't want to."

The couple's therapist, Wendy, helped Angela to reflect on how she went against Charles' advice when she pursued her real estate ventures. Angela admitted that she felt "so bad" about not listening to him and acknowledged that she had put their marriage at risk.
