Struggle Care

08: When Creators Collide, Part II with Kate Leggett

Listen Later

If you joined us for Episode 7, you heard the beginning of my series with Kate. If not, you can listen to Part 1 on the Restoring Relationships Podcast. Kate and I met because of our differing viewpoints as we interacted through TikTok videos. We have since taken the time for discussion, proving that disagreements, conflicts, and drama are part of normal life that should be approached with mutual respect and understanding. 


I’m continuing the conversation with Kate Leggett, a student in her final semester of graduate school to be a Marriage and Family Therapist. Kate uses her TikTok channel to help restore   relationships. Even though our relationship didn’t begin well, we are making strides in communicating with respect and understanding around disagreements and conflicts. The ability to gain a fresh perspective and engage with another person in the face of disagreement is an important topic in today’s world! Listen in and be the “fly on the wall” as we model real-life conflict, relationships, and reconciliation. Join us for a closer look!


Show Highlights:

  • Why KC’s initial reaction to Kate was aggravation
  • The idea behind KC’s context: “How people treat you when they are angry is more revealing than how they treat you when they are happy.”
  • The idea behind Kate’s context: “Anger isn’t necessarily the issue, but the lack of repair after the anger is the issue.”
  • What our backgrounds and upbringings teach us about anger, hurt, abuse, relationships, and our worthiness
  • Why it’s different trying to communicate to the masses, like online, rather than on a one-to-one basis in a relationship
  • What Kate wishes she had done differently in her initial exchange with KC
  • Why we should be able to expect creators, especially those with expertise, to be accountable for their words
  • Why it’s tricky to make mental health content on social media
  • Why therapy content can’t replace in-person therapy
  • Thoughts on relationship boundaries, “gray areas,” and why “people are not disposable”
  • The difference in “Setting boundaries” vs. “Being boundaried”
