WDMP Prefer to Keep the Status Quo of Distance in our Relationship?
Welcome back to the WDMP podcast and to the first episode in our Mini-Series on Choosing, Being Chosen and Belonging.In this episode we're answering the question "Why Does My Partner Prefer to Keep the Status Quo of Distance in our Relationship?" We're talking about vulnerability, safety, and taking emotional risks without guarantee of outcome. We discuss how vulnerability is embedded in listening and receiving just as much as it is in sharing, the difference between provocative and responsible distance taking, and how to incorporate time-outs by developing a shared relational language. We also talk about a way of framing status quos. And, as usual, we share an impactful you-turn to explore.
