In this episode, Brian discusses how for much of his life, he used the natural impulse to care for others destructively. His caretaking was largely driven by fear, shame, and a need to feel safe and valued.  In his relationship with Stephanie, he had to relearn what real caretaking meant—how to receive care without shame and to give it from a place of empathy instead of obligation or fear.
