S2 Ep 28 -Do We Take Things Too Personally?

Hello Tater tots! Welcome back to another episode!

So happy you’re here to join me on this episode where I unpack my own experiences and opinions on taking things too personally and too close to heart and how active efforts to understand and grow from it has changed the way I view (and behave in) confrontations in relationships.

I used to take certain things too personally. In more ways than one. When the people in my life had problems or issues in their lives I would want more than anything to help them or fix it. When I had disagreements with partners I would instinctively take the issues they brought forward as a direct reflection of my own actions, when in reality, that wasn’t really the case.

I learned that it’s important to keep a balance between taking what people share for face value, and hold space for differences and staying curious of other’s perspectives, views, and world lens.

I hope this episode helps you in some way, and as always, this is a very general and broad take on a complex topic, so take what I say with a grain of salt! My goal for this channel is to create curiosity and spark self exploration.

Have a wonderful day!
