Dear Dr. Tracy

Responding to Bids for Connection - with Dr. Tracy Dalgleish


Listen Later

In this episode, Dr. Tracy sits down to discuss bids for connection in a relationship and what these bids can look like. She provides valuable insights on how to effectively respond to these bids and offers tips specifically for individuals who tend to be people pleasers. Dr. Tracy also unveils details of her new book, "I Didn’t Sign Up for This", which is now available for pre-order and will launch on September 12th. She shares a glimpse into the lives of four real-life couples that she will be discussing in her book, all of whom she has personally worked with as their couples therapist. 

 

In this episode, we discuss:  

  • Defining bids for connection in relationships  
  • Understanding what bids for connection can look like 
  • Types of people pleasing and how to respond in relationships  
  • People pleasing as a subconscious form of safety and connection 
  • Acknowledging the presence of a bid without sacrificing everything 
  • Tuning in and practicing active engagement in bids for connection 
  •
