Manage episode 450816278 series 3498921
Are you worried about Thanksgiving dinner conversations with family members who voted differently than you? In this week's episode, we listen to a conversation with Suzanne, who is trying to navigate issues of duty and connection with family members who don't share her values.
We discuss:
- 1:39 How do I explain to my family that I can't talk to them?
- 4:55 Working with the concept of duty
- 9:48 Developing boundaries around our relational terms of engagement
- 15:32 What needs are met when I reach out?
- 18:19 The difference between the public self and the private self/fitting in vs. belonging
- 27:15 What makes taking the next step in personal growth easier
- 31:14 Closing thoughts
