Bob Conlin takes the reins on this episode for the third of his regular podcasts focussed on relationships. In this episode Bob talks about something that comes up quite often in his sessions as a relationship coach – that one person needs help for the future of their relationship and the other thinks there’s no problem.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
‘Nine times out of ten (maybe more), the person seeking support is the female identified person in the relationship, and the person saying everything is fine is the male identified individual.’
‘I think as a way of staying in our comfort zone/burying our head in the sand and hoping things will work themselves out, we say that everything’s fine or deflect and project that the problem is actually you not me or the relationship. It’s actually a pivotal opportunity for a couple to come together and be vulnerable and honestly take an inventory of their relationship.’
‘Put your victim mindset in the back seat for a while and actually look at what’s the opportunity for both of you, what do you want, are you both truly happy and how do we get there?’
‘I talk to so many couples who just settle and think it’s OK to come home and not feel connected to the person you’re supposed to be committed to and loving, or feel unseen, unheard or misunderstood by the person you’re supposed to be in a committed relationship with. You have to return to love.’
