On this episode, Izzy talks about a saying that was reflected in an episode of our friends’ podcast “Meet The Simmons” that talks about if relationships are not having conversations in the future tense and only in past tense can be detrimental to a relationship. May bring up red flags to both parties to see that they are not being envisioned in a future of being together. Mike and Izzy discuss having trust in a relationship and nourishing the relationship by communicating what is wrong within the relationship. It is imperative to have discussions in regard to things that are affecting the relationship and be able to find a remedy to fix it if the outlook for each other is to be together for the years to come. Neither person can read minds to know something is bothering one another, so speak up before it becomes too late. Mike shares that man are actionable beings, saying I love you is way different from showing how you love them, same concept applies to just saying sorry versus showing why you are sorry. Mike always has to show his sarcasm. Mike and Izzy share their insights as those that use the term life-coach. Izzy discusses that psychiatry and/or psychology are valuable resources to help with peoples’ issues/concerns. Izzy relates this to a scene from the hottest TV show ever “The Sopranos”. Mike shares his biggest issue with therapists is that they never give advice, just continue to compound the questions. Be careful with those therapists that have personal issues, it discredits their credibility. Mike shares his personal experience with the Veterans Affairs dentists and how they Veteran Affairs gave up on his therapy. It explains a lot as to why Mike is the way he is. #mentalhealth #veteranpodcast #mentalhealthawareness
