I am a value and I am worthy, and it makes you feel more secure just by the fact that you keep showing up.
What happens when early abandonment wounds follow you into adulthood? In this heartfelt episode of The Soul's Work Podcast, host Janice Ho and her guest, Steve LeBlanc, get real about how past traumas have shaped their present relationships. From the sting of infidelity to the complexities of consensual non-monogamy, they tackle it all with honesty and vulnerability. Steve opens up about his journey towards greater self-awareness, revealing how understanding his triggers has helped him foster healthier connections.
They also discuss the importance of creating a safe space within relationships, where both partners can just 'be' without fear or judgment. Sexual trauma and its long-lasting impact are another crucial topic, as Steve shares how his early experiences led to repressing his needs and being performative in relationships. The conversation takes an intimate turn when Steve and Janice process a real-time moment of internalized beliefs about sexual desirability.
Through candid dialogue, they highlight the need for clear communication and understanding power dynamics in heterosexual relationships. This episode is not just about personal healing but also about mutual growth and empathy. Whether you're dealing with your own relationship struggles or simply curious about the dynamics of non-monogamy, this episode offers valuable insights and a sense of community. Dive into this episode for a raw and enlightening discussion on healing from trauma and finding authenticity in love.
