Getting a "no" can be incredibly painful as it can bring up rejection issues in relationships. In this podcast episode, you will learn what happens when you get a frequent "no" in a love relationship and how you can deal with that "no" in a more healthy and non-threatening way.
(Show Notes: Be sure to listen to the episode to hear stories, examples, and more tips.)
WHAT IS A "NO?"- Emotionally checking out or emotionally leaving the relationship
- Ultimatums and doubts, such as "yes – but"
- Break-up or divorce
- People feel triggered and activated by love.
- People don't know how to deal with their reactions so they behave unskillfully.
- People don't have a growth mindset – where they can see their love relationship as an opportunity for healing, integration, or development.
- Know yourself – better understand what you desire and what you want.
- Value yourself – value your worth, qualities, and contributions.
- Be a "yes" to you – accept and stand for what you want and desire.
