Navigating relationships can feel like walking a tightrope. It's a delicate balance between understanding and respecting our own emotional needs while also being mindful of those of our counterparts. In this week’s episode, we talk about the nuances of setting boundaries and the impact of unresolved trauma on relationships. We also talked about the delicate dance between self-connection and self-responsibility amidst the intricacies of emotional needs. Join us as we highlight the significance of self-care, exploring how to manage our behavior without imposing our expectations on others and how to remain open-hearted and motivated in our relationships.
