Breakup to Blessing

Why We Choose the Wrong Partners (and How to Choose Better) Ep. 121


Listen Later

In this episode of Breakup to Blessing, Sylvia dives deep into the patterns behind how we make decisions in our relationships — whether it's choosing who to date, who to commit to, or even why we stay in relationships longer than we should. Are we being led by logic, or are our emotions quietly in control? Sylvia explains how we often create logical stories to justify emotional decisions, and she helps listeners uncover the hidden patterns that may be guiding them.

Key Topics Covered:

  • Logical Stories vs. Emotional Truths: How we convince ourselves our choices are logical when they're actually driven by fear, insecurity, or unmet needs.

  • Identifying Hidden Patterns: Understanding why you may be drawn to similar types of partners, even when they seem different on the surface.

  • Attachment and Early Influences: How the emotional patterns formed in childhood with caregivers can impact your relationship choices in adulthood, as explained by Andrew Huberman.

  • Recognising Your Own Patterns: A reflective exercise to help you identify your decision-making triggers — is it logic, emotion, or fear?

  • Real-Life Example: The story of a woman who thought she was dating different types of men but realized they all had one thing in common — an inability to provide emotional connection.

  • Making Healthier Decisions: How to challenge the stories you tell yourself and start making relationship choices that are genuinely aligned with your goals and values.
