People (us too!) often act as if "I feel ________, and therefore you/I must _________." We say things like "I yelled because I was angry," or "I am upset when you offer criticism, so you must not criticize me." This is problematic, because it assumes that feelings are demands. Feelings are not demands, they are just feelings!

This episode will address:

How do you feel your feelings without letting them control your behavior?

What is the difference between responsiveness and accommodation in a relationship?

How do we take responsibility for our actions, rather than blaming those actions on our feelings?
