Conversations from the Heart

#54 - Fitting In vs. Belonging


Listen Later

This week's episode explores themes of belonging, and the human need we all share for community.

We explore:

  • 1:59  I don't feel like I belong anywhere
  • 5:50  Rising into grandiosity or sinking into shame
  • 7:19  Belonging to Yourself
  • 12:05  The role of reverence
  • 14:03  How do I handle passive aggressive comments?
  • 25:20  We're either repeating or transforming a dynamic
  • 26:43  Make the implicit explicit
  • 34:28  My friend takes a long time to text me back and it hurts my feelings
