Welcome to ‘No Mans Land’ - when you have no trust issues in your relationship and no reason to not trust your partner but you struggle with trust & insecurity. It’s a sticky in between area when sometimes you feel uncomfortable and you find yourself thinking ‘do I trust them!?’ or ‘do I not trust myself? Is this the problem coming from me or is it being caused by them? Is it because of a partner or an incident before? Am I being irrational? Are they being irrational? If you can relate, this episode is for you.
Today, Louise is once again joined by Lisa Smith, of TikTok’s ‘So My Mom’s A Therapist’ notoriety to discuss all things TRUST.
They pair discuss:
⇢ The concept of silence, suppression, the crazy girl and the cool girl
⠀
⇢ How the cool girl and crazy girl show up in our cognition and in our brain patterns
⠀
⇢ Why it’s not needy to have needs but why we don’t act on our feelings because of rejection
⠀
⇢ The physical impacts of ignoring our own needs
⠀
⇢The real of ‘reasonable’ - what can you ask your partner to do to make you feel better?
⠀
⇢ How to understand the difference between overactive anxiety and an overactive nervous system response vs. our gut trying to tell us the truth
⠀
⇢ The secret to soothing your nervous system, alone, and with your partner;
⠀
⇢ How to navigate these situations when our bodies aren’t happy and we don’t feel safe.
And so much more.
