This episode on insecurities is a must listen for anyone in a blended family. The way we view the world and our interactions with others is determined by our past experiences, how we feel about ourselves and what we feel we are worth. Not dealing with and overcoming the false things we believe about ourselves is ultimately the number one destroyer of blended families. This makes battling this issue a top priority.
Our insecurities too often drive our behavior. We allow events and interactions with those we love to remind us of the things we dislike most about ourselves. In these moments we often act outside of out true character out of self-protection. We get angry, blame others or shut down all together.
We must remember that much of what we perceive in the world and our interactions with others is just made up in our head. We naturally default to think that others think of us the same negative way we think of ourselves. Unchecked, our personal insecurities lead to misunderstanding, hurt relationships and destroyed blended families.
In this episode we discuss ways of overcoming the insecurities you have in your own life. Even something as simple as giving voice to the false things we believe about ourselves begins to take away the power our insecurities have over us.
