Bruce Learns to Label His Feelings :: Bruce and Heather [Ep 316] Don't Mom Alone Podcast
-
- Parenting
“What’s something you’ve grown in but at different speeds?”. After collecting listener questions, this question stood out to my husband Bruce. So instead of doing a general Q and A episode (in honor of our 22nd wedding anniversary), we decided to discuss Bruce’s journey in learning how to identify what he is feeling, labeling it and sharing it with others.
Listen to how we learned to process our feelings through church small group. And how we’ve grown as a couple to express those emotions in a healthy way.
“I think a common theme through all of this is just having a really constructive, clear language to talk about things. It is not like any one of these methods solves things. It's not a formula. The more precise and constructive and simple we make this language, the more effective communication can be.”
Here are the cards we reference in the show (see website show notes).
