S2.E15. Relationships, Intimacy, & Trauma
Anne and Alison talk to relationship expert Jayson Gaddis on his path to healing his childhood wounds through the teachings of his romantic relationships. He shares the moment he stopped viewing himself as the victim in his failed relationships and started to take ownership of his life and responsibility for his growth. He's creating a relational world in which people care how their actions impact the way people feel. It's a world we want to live in!
We discuss attachment styles (anxious, avoidant, secure), Buddhism/Naropa University, childhood emotional neglect, healing, intimacy, relationships, and friendships, and end with the feelings wheel game.
