Be Known: the Podcast

That's what we're striving for, right? Listen in for a gentle reminder of why relational wholeness matters, some signs your relationships may be unhealthy, and questions to ask yourself to begin working toward health. 

Entering a New Year can be so quick that we neglect to slow down and reflect on what we just ended. And we do this when lots of things end and begin in our lives, so to welcome us back to the podcast after a break, I'm reflecting, too. Listen in. 

As I prepare to enter into a more quiet season during Advent, this will be the last episode of 2022, and I thought it'd be fitting just to spend time reflecting on the year together. 

Some come on in a sit a while. Grab a cup of coffee and listen in. 

People's choices are their own to make, and we need to let them have autonomy to make them. Listen in to what this can look like for us in a healthy way. 

As a follow-up to the last episode, today, we're digging deeper into secure attachment and how to get there. This is is one of the most important topics you'll ever need to talk about and understand as you pursue healthier relationships, so listen in.

I can't tell you how many times I've had this conversation lately-- people who are struggling in their relationships, something major had happened, the same old patterns are happening and nothing's changing. And they don't know whether to leave the relationship or stay. This could be in many different types of relationships, too, not just romantic. So, even though this topic is complicated and will always depend on the individual's situation, here are some signs it may be time to walk away. Listen in. 

Also, the podcast is taking a short two-week break! I'll see you soon :).
