The difficult part is those unknown places, those triggers, where we start to react in a way where we don't even understand where it came from.
Imagine trying to build a new relationship while carrying the weight of past traumas. In this episode, Joe Ryan unpacks how our history can influence our reactions in current relationships. Whether it's a knee-jerk response to a seemingly trivial comment or a deep-seated fear of vulnerability, Joe delves into the ways our past can haunt our present. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing these triggers and working through them rather than letting them sabotage new connections.
Joe shares his insights on why romantic relationships can feel so different from being alone and how our partners might not always understand the trauma we've endured. He discusses practical steps for managing these emotional reactions, encouraging listeners to reflect on their childhood experiences and their impact on adult relationships. With his usual blend of honesty and empathy, Joe offers hope for those looking to heal from their past and build healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
