125. Sarah #37: I Feel Like I'm Going to Think About It a Lot

125. Sarah #37: I Feel Like I'm Going to Think About It a Lot

Sarah is experiencing the difference between being of value at work and being the singular essential piece that also carries with it all the responsibility and pressure. She notices how she's starting to relax a bit and soften her edges when she isn't in complete control. Doug helps Sarah acknowledge how the control issue arose to protect herself as a child growing up in a cult, but it isn't serving her well now in her adult life. Doug invites her to come out of the protective shell to feel her own emotional experience rather than stay "safe" inside and keep her feelings internalized. Kenzie presses Doug to break down the abundant use of analogy and personal stories in session rather than stay in Sarah's own personal experiences and emotions. They find that the analogies, especially the airplane one, really do land for Sarah… do they land for you too?
