Show Notes

Now that we’ve keyed into the ways we can sabotage ourselves by taking things personally, this episode focuses on practical methods (with specific examples) of interrupting old default settings so that we can shift our consciousness away from taking things personally and towards being more empathetic in relationships.

 

Newer listeners are encouraged to also drop into our first podcast, START RIGHT HERE. A bunch of compelling interviews and other goodies that tie into the Emotional Sobriety project.
