Maddy and Jennifer dive into the topic of avoidance and how it shows up in everyday life. From dodging text messages and delaying difficult conversations to steering clear of responsibilities like paying bills, they explore why we all avoid certain things and what it says about us. The duo shares their own experiences while offering insights on how to manage avoidance without letting it control our lives.
Key Takeaways:
- Avoidance Snowballs: Small acts of avoidance can quickly grow, making things harder to face later.
- Curiosity Beats Confrontation: Approach tough conversations with curiosity to encourage open dialogue.
- Own Your Feelings: Use “I feel” statements to reduce defensiveness and foster better communication.
- You’re Not Responsible for Others’ Reactions: Express your needs without feeling responsible for how others respond.
- Balance Vulnerability and Boundaries: Be open, but don’t overshare if it feels uncomfortable or unnecessary.
