Building Trust and Safety: A Vulnerable Journey into the Heart of Relationships


Listen Later

Wondering why you keep hitting the same barriers in your relationship? Perhaps, it's time to dig deeper and reconsider how you create safety and trust. We, Sammy and Spencer, are here to pioneer this unfiltered expedition into the core of relationships. We share our personal tales, mistakes, and victories of nurturing a fortified bond filled with trust. Our discussion unravels how we bridged the gap between us by unearthing our childhood experiences, shedding our defense mechanisms, and revealing our true selves to each other.

We shed light on how we navigated the tumultuous waves of our past relationships, and how they often left an indelible mark on our current ones. Unmasking our own insecurities, we reveal how markers from our past can stimulate codependency and a sense of disconnection. We delve into the gravity of vulnerability and sincerity in relationships, and how it forms the unshakeable foundation of a secure partnership. We also discuss our personal endeavors of breaking free from codependent patterns, learning to meet our own needs, and finding a steadfast source of safety in our faith.

In conclusion, we impart some pragmatic tips to help you foster an environment of safety and connection in your relationships. We explore how the blame game can build a chasm in relationships and how using "ownership language" can mend it. We also share how forming a genuine connection with a higher power, in our case God, can provide a sense of security and fulfillment that no human being can offer. Tune in as we unravel these hidden dynamics of relationships, safety, trust, and emotional wellbeing. Come along on this journey of getting real about relationships and discovering the essence of connection.
