Kierstyn Franklin and Tiffany Denny are back with another engaging episode of The Relationship Recovery Podcast. This time, they tackle the tricky subject of relationship triggers. If you've ever felt an intense reaction to something seemingly minor, this episode is for you. Kierstyn and Tiffany explain that these triggers often stem from past experiences and unresolved trauma. They reassure you that everyone has triggers and it's important not to shame yourself for them.
Instead, recognising and addressing them can significantly improve your relationships. They dive into common triggers like abandonment, criticism, control, rejection, and trust issues. With real-life examples and practical tools, they guide you through understanding and managing these emotional responses.
