Spelade

  • Don't kid yourself! Your "silences" speak volumes!


    I work with people whose relationships are in crisis for so long, and their hope that not speaking up about things that are bothering them mostly does more damage than anything.


    Suffering in silence can be the exact opposite of healthy living. It's a poor--and often highly toxic--approach to relationship issues.


    It's possible that folks who button up and bottle up recall prior negative experiences associated with speaking out. Things just didn't go well, or the result crushed them. Now, they don't want to risk their self-esteem, or the relationship.


    Here's a HUGE, glaring mistake, too: Too many people talk to their kids about their frustrations with their partners. I'll talk about this more in the episode. But, know that here's the rule: DON'T DO THIS...unless your kids are fully functioning adults with enough relationship experience to have a healthy conversation.


    Why do quiet, seemingly nice people kill their spouses? One reason is that they "suffered in silence" until they really needed to say something or burst. They burst! Don't let that be you!

  • Parents who were emotionally available, perceptive, and responsive to you, to your needs and mental states, are a great gift! They tend to provide you with attachment that is secure. This is an excellent foundation for a healthy emotional life.


    Parents who were emotionally unavailable, or inconsistently available, perceptive or response to your needs, and tended to intrude their own states of mind onto you as a tiny child, could create what is called a "resistant, ambivalent, or anxious attachment" to others. This is an excellent breeding ground for an unhealthy emotional life. And, in particular, sets the stage for personality distortions in later life.


    So, that person whom you met when they were an adult--a partner, ex, parent, co-worker--was already pre-disposed to their outwardly self-important, prone to pomposity, self-adoration, and annoyingly entitled behaviors long before you can along.


    You can't change them.

    They don't want to change. T

    hey see no need to change.


    Got it?

    Good!

    Let yourself off the hook.

  • How many times have you heard someone--maybe on TV--say, "Oh, we're just going through a rough patch."


    Really? Is it? Or, is it abuse? It's SO important to know the difference, and that's what today's episode sets out to make very clear: the difference.


    Here's how Dictionary.com defines abuse:

    to use wrongly or improperlymisuseabuse one's authoritytreat in a harmful, injurious, or offensive wayto speak insultingly, harshly, and unjustly to or aboutmalignto commit sexual assault uponharshly or coarsely insulting languagebad or improper treatment

    OK...big difference from a supposed "rough patch," right?


    There's no getting away from it. When someone treats you in a degrading, mean, discounting, or dismissive way, it's abuse!


    If you don't have strong boundaries that you express and maintain, you'll turn yourself into a pretzel, and end up being a doormat. You don't want that for a moment longer, right? That's why you need to see this clearly right now, whether it is happening to you or to someone you care about.


    HIGHLIGHTS OF TODAY'S EPISODE:

    Why you mustn't dismiss "bad behavior"Clear outlines of what emotional abuse and verbal abuse areWhy it is essential to express and maintain boundaries in outing abuseWhy you must never allow someone to diminish your sense of identity, dignity, or self-worthExamples of what #Hijackal abusers do that you need to recognize for what it is.#Hijackals, finances, and financial abuse

    I hope this help you see that more clearly. If you need help with this, I'm here for you.


    Let's talk soon. I can help. Schedule an initial hour consultation HERE for only $97.


    I hope this empowers you to make positive changes NOW.


    Talk soon.

  • Big question. Knowing the answer takes a whole lot of thinking…unless, of course, there is physical or sexual abuse.


    Then, there is only one answer: GO. Go to the police. Go to the court. Go to any lengths you need to protect yourself and your children. GO.


    For most of you, though, going or staying is not black or white. It’s a whole lot of grey that travels from close to white some days, to too close to black others.
