When our judgment is clouded by the story that we tell ourselves, we can replay about what happened and we block out the opportunity to remedy what actually happened in the first place.
Ever caught yourself mid-argument wondering how things escalated so quickly? In this episode of 'Sober In The Morning', Zewiditu Jewel dives into the narratives we create in our minds and how they shape our relationships. She starts with a simple yet profound question: Are you genuinely listening to your partner, or just waiting for your turn to speak? Jewel unpacks the idea that there are three sides to every story—yours, theirs, and the truth.
This episode is a wake-up call for anyone struggling with communication issues in their relationships. By examining the stories we tell ourselves, Jewel helps listeners understand how these internal dialogues can distort our perceptions and fuel misunderstandings. She emphasizes the importance of active listening and being fully present in conversations. Instead of rehearsing what you think the other person wants to hear, Jewel suggests focusing on truly understanding their perspective.
This approach not only fosters better communication but also strengthens emotional connections. Reflecting on your behavior and considering how you'd feel if the roles were reversed is another key takeaway from this episode. Jewel's insights are both practical and deeply relatable, making this a must-listen for anyone looking to improve their relationship dynamics. Whether you're navigating a rocky patch or simply want to enhance your communication skills, this episode offers valuable tools for building healthier, more mindful relationships.
