Healing Alone: Breaking the Mutual Growth Myth | The Reckoning Part 8
Manage episode 503544816 series 3464669
Can two people truly heal together? Dan argues that the romanticized “grow together” narrative is mostly a fantasy. When one partner refuses to evolve, the relationship becomes a hostage situation, not a spiritual partnership. This episode empowers you to choose growth (even if it means walking alone) and shows why mutual growth requires individual commitment.
Episode highlights:
- The sunk‑cost and attachment traps that keep you in fantasy.
- Why walking alone is not selfish but self‑respect.
- Practical ways to build structure and community while honoring your growth.
