Welcome to Season 5 of ShrinkChicks! Emmalee and Jen are back for the first episode of the New Year with another episode dedicated to Dear Em & Jen questions! The first question asks: how do you help someone who is not ready to be helped? Emmalee and Jen discuss the challenges of watching a friend or loved one stay in an unhealthy relationship, providing support while also upholding boundaries to care for yourself, and the hard truth that people have to come to certain conclusions on their own time. Next is a question about missing the "spark" and sexual desire in a long-term relationship and how to start communicating about sex and intimacy. Lastly, they cover a question about asking for help, even if the person you're asking doesn't "get" or hasn't experienced what you are specifically going through. Tune in for some in-depth answers that can be applied to MANY different situations! PS: Fast forward to around 5:30 into their convo to skip the intro and get straight to today’s content.
