Episode 2817:

Dr. Lisa Firestone invites us to transform our relationships by recognizing how much of our emotional reactivity stems from old wounds and unconscious projections. By pausing to consider that our partner's behavior may be shaped by their own past rather than something we caused, we can shift from being reactive to being curious, creating space for empathy, compassion, and deeper connection.

Quotes to ponder:

"In a couple, one person always has 100 percent control of 50 percent of the dynamic."

"Sometimes rather than react and pounce all over the present issue, it's better to give it a little time and space."

"Whatever is happening inside our partner isn't always about us."
