439: Healing Unhealthy Relationship Patterns

Listen Later

Many of us learn unhealthy relationship patterns and have trouble understanding and breaking them. What if we could teach our children to not create these patterns and learn how to break them for ourselves through a children's book? Listen to today's show to hear how a licensed therapist has written a children's book to help adults and children heal. 

In this episode with Daniel McMillan we discuss relationship advice topics that include:

  • Understanding the pursue, withdraw, relationship pattern and why it does not serve us
  • How to navigate the fear of disconnection when your partner withdraws
  • How to communicate when you're anxious and you feel you want to pursue your partner
  • Navigating our fear of abandonment by yourself and with your partner
  • How to teach your kids about unhealthy relationship patterns
  • Understanding that it's OK to not be able to solve all of your problems
  • And much more!
