A Conversation with Don St John
What we talked about:
- Why being in a committed relationship can be one of the best venues for the healing journey
- The configuration of the codependent relationship
- Getting to the core and facing fears, vulnerabilities and uncertainties are important to live a life of fullness
- Who you’re likely to be attracted to is what you most need to heal
- Asking yourself what you have learned from your old relationships and what growth has been catalyzed?
- Growth requires continual attention and willingness
- The different kinds of attachment styles
- How understanding attachment styles can be used as a tool to understand the quality of relationships with your parents and how it influences future relationships
- A major step in personal development when one can realize that they can be this AND that
- Learning to listen to your heart
- The three dimensions of being and the importance of identity, connection and responsibility in relationship
- Taking responsibility to become the author of your own life
