In this episode of Levelheaded Talk, Dr. Andrea Vitz and Jon Leon Guerrero tackle the concept of 'getting over yourself' in various scenarios, especially in romantic relationships. Dr. Vitz shares practical advice on how to rise above your immediate emotional reactions by visualising yourself from a higher perspective.
