EP 315: Be a Stand For What You Want in Your Life with Sebastian

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This episode is about taking a stand for what we value. Today’s caller, Sebastian, is not getting his needs met in his relationship. He is attempting to talk through his issues, but the results are not changing. We discuss ways to get clarification from his partner about what she needs and how he can have his needs met by taking a stand for his values.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[For show notes, go here:</span> <a href="http://christinehassler.com/episode315"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Christinehassler.com/episode315</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">]</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If communication solved every issue in a relationship, we could all just read communication books and have the most amazing relationships, friendships, and parental relationships. Everything would be easy. But, it is not. We need to do the inner work. We play out our childhood stuff in our adult life, especially in relationships.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When a child has emotionally unavailable parents, they learn to tolerate a lot more hurt. When they grow into adults, they may have a pattern of thinking things are better than they truly are in their intimate relationships.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In relationships, friendships, or any kind of intimate relationship, we often love and give in the way we want to be given to and loved, not necessarily the way that person needs or wants it.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We have to be bold when it comes to things like love, our families, our health, our well-being, and what is important to us. We must take a stand for our values.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Join us for our LIVE Inner Child Workshop on October 8–10th.
