    Feeling Defensive?

    We’ve all received feedback that has stung or embarrassed us, making us feel defensive. And it’s normal to feel defensive. The amygdala, which is the part of the brain that constantly scans our environment for threats cannot tell the difference between a psychological threat and a physical threat.  Essentially, we get the defensive because we don't feel safe.  But there is not upside in feeling defensive.  This episode will give you real life strategies on how to counter that feeling of defensive.

    The power of siblings

    Our sibling relationships are the longest relationships we will have on this earth.  Because of this they can sometimes be difficult to mange and hit some roadblocks. The quality of sibling relationships is also one of the most important predictors of mental health in old age, according to The American Journal of Psychiatry.  Research shows that people who are emotionally close to their siblings have higher life satisfaction and lower rates of depression later in life. In times of stress or trauma, siblings can provide essential emotional and monetary support. I have 9 siblings so I have a lot of practice and experience on how to create strong bonds with your siblings.   In this episode I gave you 3 things to focus on to enhance your sibling relationships so you can fully enjoy the power of those relationships.

    Friendships

    We all want stronger friendships.   But as we get older friendships can feel harder. I see a lot of adults struggle in the friendship department because they have forgotton how to make friendships simple and drama-free. We all want to feel loved and wanted and connected to others. The problem is we think other people's actions and words are what makes us feel loved, wanted and connected. We are wrong.  We are the only ones who can make us feel connected to others. The feelings of love, inclusion and connection are completely created by you; not by others. Easy enough, right?  If we want to feel these lovely feelings then we just think lovely thoughts.  So what is the problem?  Why do we have times that we don't feel loved, connected or wanted? In this episode I teach you how to manage your brain and 6 steps on how to navigate the landmines of friendships.

    Are you providing safety for your child?

    We all worry about our child's safety. This episode I am talking to you about the magic bullet in relationships. Creating emotional safety. When we are talking about emotional safety we mean creating safe place so that your child does not feel as if you are at risk of harm or danger and with emotional safety it means knowing that you will not be criticized, blamed, rejected, invalidated or dismissed by your parent. If your partner does not share with you, if your partner shuts down, if your partner finds it easier to talk to other people than to talk to you, instead of engaging in name calling and blaming and saying things such as “you’re secretive,” “you don’t know how to express yourself,” “you never talk,” “you’re such a coward,” “you don’t respect me,” etc, Turn inward and ask yourself: What am I doing or not doing that is causing my child to not feel comfortable sharing with me? What can I do to show my child that I am interested in what they want to share and I am committed to holding a safe space for them to express themselves fully? Today I give you 6 ways to create emotional safety in your relationship with your LGBTQ child.
