Listen on Spotify | Listen on Apple Podcasts
Oh the fear of coming on too strong, or being too much, or being too....something, that ultimately drives our crush, love interest, or partner away.
What anxiety this creates!
In this episode I break down:
What makes it so hard to say how we actually feel in with someone we like/love/etc
What to do when you're facing this dilemma and how to shift your behavior
How the fear of losing someone (aka abandonment is real) and where that stems from
How we can actually work to grow our ability to express ourselves — in a way that doesn't make us so nervous and anxious
How suppressing how we feel drives us further from people, not closer
How the more authentically we operate, the more intimacy we build
This episode will benefit with anyone who struggles with:
People pleasing
Codependency
Passive aggressive behavior
Feels they stayed in relationships too long — or wreaked havoc by not saying what was actually going on with them
