Have you ever found yourself thinking, “Here we go again” or “Why does this always happen to me?” Sometimes we move into a new relationship, friendship, or workplace, only to discover we're experiencing the same dynamics all over again. In this podcast episode, we explore why we can repeat relationship patterns and the different roles we may find ourselves playing, such as the people pleaser, fixer, peacemaker, over-functioner, approval seeker, or problem solver. These patterns can show up in our personal relationships, friendships, romantic relationships, and at work. We also explore why recognizing a pattern doesn't always make it easier to change. Sometimes a familiar pattern can feel comfortable because it is familiar, even when it isn't healthy for us. The goal isn't to change everything overnight. It's about noticing the pattern, understanding what is happening, and beginning to make different choices. The Podcast Affirmation: “I am creating new patterns built on respect, trust, and healthy connection.” Because the patterns we've lived aren't necessarily a prediction of our future. Every time we pause, notice, and choose differently, we can begin building a new future and a better life.
