Apparently "Breakthrough" is as popular here as it was on NBC.

I watched and what's bad about this, people getting jobs is entertaining? Go figure!

I am very familiar with The Work, and have known Katie for years. I will commit to writing down my judgments and doing the 4 questions and the turnaround. I would love any other suggestions on how to face these overwhelming challenges in my life. I can't pay rent this month, may be out of here soon and don't know where we'll go. I also have fibromyalgia. I feel like my life has been hit with a series of disasters. I am doing my best to stand up and meet the challenges, but I have to be honest - at times I just feel like giving up. I feel as if my life force is drained. I don't feel connected to my spirituality anymore and that is one of the hardest things.

Thanks for doing this series and for the lessons here on Huffpost. I feel a tiny inkling of hope that I can get through this...

Much strength and peace to you during this difficult time. I know pat aphorisms don't solve real problems, but it is said that serenity is not freedom from the storm, but peace within it.

Hope this song can help lift your spirits a bit ...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=No1UKN-SKlg

You are not alone.

Oh my god. That is the song my partner used to play over and over and over to get through this hard time. Thank you for caring and posting the link. You made me cry.

Wow, this was great, Tony. I have been experiencing extreme stress - my partner of 14 years was just sent to jail on Friday for one year for being unable to pay child support. Even though he had found a great paying job in the last month, the judge didn't care. Financially I am beyond the edge. Emotionally I am drained, angry and upset. And on top of that, my sons have both been facing extreme health challenges. (One has just had his tenth surgery, the other has Type 1 diabetes and we almost lost him a couple times last year.) In spite of this stress, my relationship with my partner is one of respect, intimacy and love. I am also very close with my sons. It seems as if finances are the problem in our lives, but after watching this show, I am not sure.

When I watched the clip of Ron and Marie meeting with his estranged parents, I wondered if something similar could be part of our inability to break through the patterns in our lives. My partner was disowned by his family for choosing out of their religion, and we have had huge issues with his ex-spouse. So there is much disconnection and fracturing here. We have attempted to bridge the gaps, but have been unable to find common ground with them. I would love guidance on how to heal this when the other people don't want contact.

to be continued...

If your boyfriend was "disowned" by his parents it's their loss and Karma will prevail. He should move on and be around people who love him in return. Life is way too short :) !

Watching this program, I didn't find the wife or husband to be very likable. By the end of the show, they did seem more of a team together than before. I am not sure how flying planes had anything to do with it. That seemed a little far fetched. After all, the average married couple in dire straits can't just go off and do that to feel brave and be able to face things!! I think they would have benefitted more from both changing places. He should have stayed home with the kids for a few weeks and stopped belittling what she does. She should have been trying to get a $100,000 year job!
