To have a healthy relationship, everybody has to have a certain amount of freedom, and the opposite of that trust and freedom is control, where everybody needs to know where everybody is at every minute, and many, many couples find that they can't do things without each other.
Ever wondered if your relationship is on shaky ground? Ellen Stewart, also known as the Pushy Broad from the Bronx, dives into this delicate topic in an episode of 'Recovery Recharged'. She tackles the tricky questions: What are the red flags? Should you fight for your relationship or walk away? And most importantly, how can you mend what's broken? Ellen emphasizes that trust and freedom are the bedrock of any healthy relationship.
She points out that control can be a relationship killer, stifling the independence both partners need to thrive. On the flip side, passivity can be just as damaging. Balance is key. Boundaries also come into play. Without them, couples might face constant criticism or drift apart socially. Ellen highlights the importance of nurturing your relationship continuously. It's not about avoiding conflicts but about understanding and addressing them together.
In today's tech-driven world, Ellen warns against leaning too heavily on gadgets for emotional connection. Real love and security come from quality time spent together, not from a screen. Effective communication is another cornerstone. Ellen advises couples to actively listen and mirror each other's feelings to stay connected. This episode of 'Recovery Recharged' is a treasure trove of practical advice for anyone grappling with relationship issues.
Ellen's insights offer a roadmap to recognizing trouble spots and working towards a healthier, happier partnership.
