Holiday Triggers: Recognizing and navigating relationship conflict
Welcome to the first episode in a 4 part holiday series on navigating relationship dynamics.
Whether you’re spending the holidays with family, your partner, or close friends (or celebrating something different at a completely different time of year), it’s only natural that these situations can bring up a lot.
Sometimes going back home can bring up triggers that make you question if all the “healing” you’ve been doing has changed anything at all (Trust me, it has, and we will talk about it!).
It can bring up tiffs with your partner around things you normally wouldn’t be irritated with, and suddenly there’s another divide.
It can also be a time for questions about marriage, kids, and relationships, which can be super triggering if you’re navigating avoidant or anxious attachment styles or ROCD.
Over the next 4 weeks, we’ll be talking about all this and more, like how you can tap into the seasonal energy of winter to deepen your connections and how to stop adjusting yourself to different situations.
In this episode, we’re talking about:
* Why the holidays bring up unexpected emotional triggers in relationships, more than usual and often before you even realize it
* Learn how to recognize anxiety-inducing patterns that surface around family gatherings and within your relationships
* Discover tools to help you stay grounded and reduce emotional reactions before they take over.
* Understanding the “why” behind your holiday stress can help you connect with your partner, rather than withdraw or lash out.
* Find ways to reclaim holiday peace and turn stressful situations into opportunities for deeper intimacy and growth within your relationships
