The Grumpy Girlfriend Podcast

What happens to the love and connection in a relationship when your brain is constantly on the defensive? In this week's episode, I talk about standing up for yourself in a relationship, what that means, and what happens when it goes too far.

How can we use boundaries in order to ensure our own safety and fulfill our own needs, and then let go of our desire to change or control how our partner acts? Tune in to find out.

Deciding when grumpiness or upset emotions are justified and when they aren't, when they are "correct" and when they aren't, can be a struggle. I'm sure you have, at some point, asked a friend if the way you reacted was exaggerated or totally normal. We do this in an attempt to not only feel justified but also get validation from someone that isn't us so we don't have to carry the burden of choosing our emotions on our own.

In this episode, we are going to sort it all out. Is grumpiness ever objectively justified and what is the purpose behind it? And most importantly, who decides?

Before we can start digging around in all of our grumpiness, I think it's important to understand where it comes from, to begin with. What actually happens when we start nurturing the grumpy-seed in our brains that then grows into an uncontrollable monster?

The reason we become grumpy actually doesn't have anything to do with our partners and how they act. I know that might disappoint you, but I promise it's the best news you've heard all day.
