Why does my partner beat themselves up when I tell them I have an issue with their behavior?
When we start beating ourselves up in front of our partners when they have an issue with our behavior, what is it that we’re actually doing? Can we talk about that for a minute? Actually, we already did, and it’s this week’s of the podcast! Hear us chat about shame pits and grandiosity, listening and remorse, self protection and vulnerability, and…throwing babies? All this and more on the Why Does My Partner Podcast!
Quotes:
“We can't talk about hard things when we're not in integrated brain states.”
“There’s difficulty moving into remorse.”
“You can pick up your own baby.”
