Ep. 22: On Desiring Support and Partnership: Being Coached by Aaron Steinberg


Listen Later

We are back today with another episode where I take the "hot seat", with Aaron Steinberg joining me as my coach. With an MA in Integral Psychology, certificates in Leadership Development, Sex Education, and Complex and Developmental Trauma Therapy, and multiple professional coaching certifications, Aaron focuses on providing a safe space for couples and individuals to grow. Aaron and I have worked together in the past, and I am so excited to have him here coaching me today! Join us as we dig into what I really mean when I say self-care and accepting my own need to let someone else "do it". If you find yourself getting stuck in a bind, and feeling like caring for yourself seems like too much, this episode is for you!

We're exploring:

  • Self-care: the bare minimum isn't enough
  • The added stress of daily life without a partner
  • "It's all on me" - the emotional labor of pushing through the resistance
  • The pressures we put on ourselves do it all
  • Letting go of the shame over wanting someone else to take over
  • Losing identity in partnership - remaining yourself while letting others carry the load
  • And so much more!!
