1.17 How We Love Part 2

04/04/19 • 29 min

Catherine Morrill, Susette Magana and I wrap up our discussion of the book "How We Love" by Milan and Kay Yerkovich. We talk about the concept of Secure Connection as the antidote to the 5 unhealthy love styles that we all tend to find ourselves repeating.

Some of the topics we cover:
What does it mean to securely connect with another person?
If I don’t naturally connect with others, can I get better? If so, how?
Is there a better way for me to be understood by others?
Why are emotions important, and why do we downplay them?
“God, change my spouse” and other unhelpful prayers

1.16 How We Love Part 1

Licensed MFTs Catherine Morrill (www.soulrestorationproject.org/catherine-morrill) and Susette Magana (www.susettemagana.com) and I discuss the relationship book "How We Love" by Milan and Kay Yerkovich.

Chances are that you can relate to at least one of these statements:
Why do people get so emotional, why can't they just move on?
My spouse has communication issues.
Sometimes I tell white lies to avoid conflict.
I have trouble saying no.
When people apologize to me, it's often too little too late.
I want to feel deep connection, I want to be pursued.
I stay in destructive relationships.
I lose my temper but they made me.

If so, then you'll want to listen in! And you definitely don't have to be married to benefit from the book and the discussion.
