Conversations from the Heart

#90 - Cats, Dogs, and Emotional Needs: How Not to Chase Love


Listen Later

In this epsiode, we speak with Cathy and Paul.  Cathy is untangling her intentions around gift giving and her desire to be closer to her daughter.  Paul is working to understand an intense emotional reaction after he had a difficult conversation with his partner.

We discuss:

  • 3:10 Opening thoughts on the current political climate
  • 10:26 How do I discern between my reaction and the reality of a thing?
  • 17:46 The sweet spot we're longing for when giving a gift
  • 21:30 Finally I feel like an adult!
  • 30:18 I am right on time.
  • 35:30 Dogs vs. cats
  • 41:02 Are you stressed about telling someone a truth?
  • 42:13 I had a hard conversation and an intense emotional reaction and I'm not sure why.
  • 51:30 Setting an intention to cry
  • 55:50 Practical Do's and Don'ts
