    Episode 13- Healthy relationships and Identifying feelings

    Send a text   Welcome back! I’m Dr. Michelle Border and in today’s episode I’m going to talk about healthy relationships and how to communicate our feelings in healthy ways. Survivors of childhood trauma often were not provided with relationship skills, did not see by example how healthy relationships work, or allowed to express their true feelings in a positive way. This can hinder developing healthy relationships in adulthood. We have borders in our minds that we are not worthy of being treated certain ways, we think we don’t have a right to express how we feel, or that we should speak up for ourselves in relationships. Some people have borders in their minds that since they weren’t given this treatment in childhood, they deserve it now and use unhealthy ways to obtain it. These borders prevent us from having healthy relationships and feeling good about ourselves. So let’s get started breaking those borders together now!
