EP 115: You're Toxic, Now What?
This interview CHANGED OUR LIVES and our relationships because it turns out… we might be a little toxic (yep, that means you too). So let’s talk about it with Emmalee Bierly, LMFT and Jennifer Chaiken, LMFT of Shrink Chicks. We’re unpacking and working through a whole lot, including:
- What it actually means to be “toxic”
- Anti-relational and dysfunctional behaviors
- The difference between a feeling and an emotion
- Common ways we react that aren’t our best selves
- Feeling like your “better” at relationships than your partner
- When your partner shuts down or doesn’t have a reaction
- Exit language during a fight and what to say instead
- Taking accountability aka “what part do I play in this?”
- Your partner is NOT a mind reader... even if you want them to be
- Asking for what we need and what gets in the way
- When you secretly love feeling like the victim
