122. Drew #94: Big Ol' Heaping Helping of Avoidance


Listen Later

Drew's adulting! He is practicing parenting himself, in preparation for his baby on the way. Drew acknowledges feeling anxious about how his parents will react to the pregnancy news he has yet to share with them. Doug challenges Drew to stay focused on himself and bring his emotions out to alleviate the anticipatory anxiety. Doug and Kenzie look at what it means to "Double down, don't shut down." We can hear Drew name and feel the feelings in the session and release some of the judgement he's been holding inside. As he says, "Being able to say it out loud helps me not avoid it."
