How to Ask for What You Need in a Relationship


Listen Later

Dr. Yvette Erasmus, a returning guest from last year's Ep. 262: When Your Needs Are Not Met on how to build and enjoy deeply connected, fulfilling and life-affirming relationships. 

SOME KEY POINTS

  • What to do when you are growing and changing and your partner isn’t 
  • Do you feel like you have grown apart to the degree that your values are no longer aligned? 
  • When you crave emotional connection, nourishment and intimacy but feel alone and lonely in your relationship 
  • When to DIY your relationship issues and when to seek out professional help
  • How to communicate your needs without coming off as needy, clingy or desperate 
  • Why we transfer our chronically unmet needs onto our partner 
  • And how it's not their job to heal your childhood wounds 
  • The interplay of dependence, independence and interdependence when it comes to your needs

A quote from this epsiode: 

“When we say yes in a relationship but we mean no, both people pay a price. ”
