Episode 363: Building Bandwidth in Difficult Relationships
About this episode
This episode explores how to build the capacity to stay connected to ourselves in complicated relationships.
Why do some people still get to you… even after you’ve done the work? It’s not just about “triggers.”And it’s not just about setting boundaries either. Sometimes it’s:– being around someone you don’t trust– navigating tension with someone you love– watching a relationship change in ways you didn’t expect– or trying to stay grounded when your past and present are both getting activated This episode is about something deeper than coping: How we build the capacity to stay connected to ourselves in relationships that feel complicated, unresolved, or emotionally charged. Because real healing isn’t:avoiding peopleor just getting through interactions It’s learning how to:– regulate instead of endure– stay grounded without shutting down– protect yourself without abandoning yourself If relationships have ever made you question yourself, second-guess your reactions, or feel like you lose access to who you are, this one will land.
