This week Louisa and Rachel explore concepts introduced in previous episodes but through real stories of conflict. 

We tell personal stories of getting into conflict with significant others where things could have gone south, but didn’t, because of the insights we are sharing on this podcast.

How can we take back our power in conflict, regardless of whatever is happening with the other person? And what about conflict where one does need the other to negotiate with, like a marriage going through divorce? 

We spend time talking about needs — or rather, unmet needs — and how they can destroy relationships. We also get into the epi-genetics of the soul, meaning, how the strategies we try to use in relationships to get our needs met are passed down to us through family patterns and inheritance.

Lastly, what is the Enemy Image? How do we make two-dimensional enemy images of those whom with we disagree? We get into a definition of this, and also what it looks like to see someone in their full, three dimensional humanity.

And what does enemy image-making have to do with world peace? We talk about what happens when we give away our power at scale — and what happens to that power we give away.

In this episode, we talk about needs versus strategies, and why conflating these two things can destroy relationships. We introduce Non-Violent Communication (NVC) as a starting point for understanding the definition of needs and strategies as a new language with which we need to become conversant — and how helpful and healing this can be.

We tell some stories of the consequences of NOT knowing about needs and strategies, such as top reasons for divorce, infidelity, why making demands is so common — and so destructive, neediness, complaining, and how to meet all the needs of a busy household.

We spend some time talking about needs that are forbidden — the ones we're not allowed to have.

We cover off the alternative to making demands — making a request! And finally: what elevates the social realm to an art form: freedom.

This episode Louisa and Rachel discuss: what is a dynamic? How do we take back our power? And why is it so hard to not take things personally? We go into why it's so freeing to understand how we each internalize the relationship dynamic we're struggling with — and why we should leave the other out of this analytic process. We build on the previous episodes in this deeper dive.

An essential part of understanding why we get into relationship dynamics is understanding ourselves and our triggers. But in order to do that, we need some way of seeing into what is essentially an invisible, intangible realm: our inner selves.

In this episode we get into why we need an anatomy of the soul, or the inner life. We get into how a surgeon wouldn't mess around with a physical body when operating without a thorough knowledge of anatomy, and neither should we mess around with the innards of the soul without a corresponding knowledge. BUT how can we say this when the soul is an intangible, invisible, non-physical aspect of our life experience?!? And yet it's so very real to us.

In this first episode of Magenta FM Season One, "The Art of Relationships," Louisa and Rachel dive into a difficult but liberating concept that we have more to do with relationship dynamics than we want to admit. 

We believe our inner life is hermetically sealed from the world, like we can hide from the world our inner condition. But the opposite is true: the world is a mirror of our inner condition, especially in relationships. The sooner we get this the sooner we can actually change things. We maybe can hide things from our friends and family, but not from the world itself. World as mirror.

This is a challenging concept: we have more to do with the relationship dynamic we’re in than we are comfortable admitting. To own up to this appears to mean we will lose our power and control in the situation, BUT — as counter-intuitive as this is — in fact we “take back our power” when we do.

So long as you believe the other person is at fault, the perpetrator, and the cause of your pain, you are stuck in a victim mode.
