Ep. 136 Hard Feelings, Real Connection: Stop Mistaking Discomfort for Danger
What if someone else having a hard feeling didn’t mean you did something wrong, and what if connection didn’t require perfection but honesty?
In this episode of Unblocked, I unpack the deeply ingrained belief that emotional discomfort signals danger in our relationships. From friendships to romantic partnerships to family ties, many of us tiptoe through our connections silencing ourselves, shape-shifting, and people-pleasing to avoid conflict. But at what cost?
Inside this episode you'll learn:
- Why love doesn’t need defending
- How your thoughts about a relationship shape your entire experience of it
- A simple reframe to move from guilt to curiosity when someone’s upset
- What to say when you’re afraid honesty might cause disconnection
- How to take 100% responsibility for your 50% of the relationship
This episode is for anyone who’s been walking on eggshells, craving connection but afraid of rocking the boat. If you’ve ever asked, “What if I’m too much?” or “What if this ruins everything?” this one’s for you.
