Episode 363: Building Bandwidth in Difficult Relationships
Why do some people still get to you… even after you’ve done the work?
It’s not just about “triggers.”
And it’s not just about setting boundaries either.
Sometimes it’s:
– being around someone you don’t trust
– navigating tension with someone you love
– watching a relationship change in ways you didn’t expect
– or trying to stay grounded when your past and present are both getting activated
This episode is about something deeper than coping:
How we build the capacity to stay connected to ourselves in relationships that feel complicated, unresolved, or emotionally charged.
Because real healing isn’t:
avoiding people
or just getting through interactions
It’s learning how to:
– regulate instead of endure
– stay grounded without shutting down
– protect yourself without abandoning yourself
If relationships have ever made you question yourself, second-guess your reactions, or feel like you lose access to who you are, this one will land.
