Amy and Catherine answer these questions and discuss how to practice self-discipline when implementing new habits in a way that actually works, stress responses when trying to get rid of a bad habit, where bad habits really come from, and real tips on creating habits (that work!) -Shoutout and credit to James Clear and his book Atomic Habits for a lot of inspiration!

Are you in an unhealthy relationship? Sometimes it’s not so easy to figure out. Especially, with the understanding that relationships themselves are hard. How do you differentiate between a tough season in your relationship and an overall toxic one? Amy and Catherine discuss the nuances of unhealthy relationships, some common indicators, how power, compromise, and sacrifice come into play and more! Dive in with us this week as we try to help you answer the question, "Am I in an unhealthy relationship?" Plus, stay tuned for “Part 2”, which leads into “I’ve realized I’m in an unhealthy relationship, now what?” Also in this episode, Amy and Catherine give their therapist perspectives on Reactivity TV! They react to the newest season of Emily in Paris and discuss all of the unhealthy relationships within the show (and there are many!)! Psst... they had A LOT to say about EIP, so the extended version of Reactivity TV can be found on the ReviveCFW YouTube channel!

Amy and Catherine are joined by Jessica Desai, LCSW this week (00:01:40). Jess is a therapist at Revive with a background in palliative care. She is a total grief expert and thankfully loves to talk about this touchy and often uncomfortable topic that all of us experience in life. Jess dives into the different ways of grieving, how to support those who are grieving (“what do I even say to someone!?”), and all types of loss (death, break-ups, life transitions, abilities, and more). She also answers a very important question: “Do we ever really get over a loss?” Find out!

This week’s Reactivity TV (01:00:58) has a bit of a twist to it. Not only does it take place at the end of the episode instead of the beginning, but it also includes Jess! There were so many relatable and applicable aspects of the film to grief and loss that Amy and Catherine wanted Jess’s expertise around it! The three of them share their therapist perspectives of the 2006 film, “The Holiday”! You may be an annual viewer of this movie, but have you thought about it like this before!?

Boundaries Part II (00:26:45) continues the boundaries discussion with what are the different kinds of boundaries, how setting boundaries is a form of self-care, what makes setting boundaries so challenging, and what you need to create a “healthy” boundary! Definitely to be continued because there’s SO much more to say about this important topic! But first, you didn’t think that just because Bachelor in Paradise was over Amy and Catherine didn’t have SOMETHING to chat about in Reactivity TV, did you!? This week (00:01:32) Amy and Catherine share their main takeaways from the entire eighth season with some common themes, what *not* to do and some lessons to be learned!

Boundaries Part I (00:28:09) is all about what boundary misconceptions, what makes them good/why do we need them, why it’s challenging to set them, and in what settings are they necessary!

This week's Reactivity TV (00:01:47) is all about feeling like you “should” propose, using “projection” correctly, saying “I love you” on your own time, and understanding other people’s narratives! A must listen all-around!
