If you're like most people, you probably do a pretty good job of caring for the most important people in your life. However, you probably forget the most important person: You. The better care you take of yourself, the better you'll be able to care for others. Taking care of yourself is a habit, perhaps the most important habit you can have. We neglect ourselves in many ways. This is a critical error. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/letstalktherapywork/message

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,” comes from Philippians 4:13. Read this way, the world's responsibilities are not on our shoulders.

Grief is a deep and powerful emotion caused by the loss of someone or something we held dear. Grief is part of loving and engaging with life. Loss is bound to come in this fallen world, and grief with it. Grief is not an emotion to be avoided, but one to acknowledge and walk through.

What exactly is a toxic relationship? Here's one explanation from the book Toxic People (1995) by Dr. Lillian Glass: “Any relationship between people who don't support each other, where there's conflict and one seek to undermine the other, where there's competition, where there's disrespect and a lack of cohesiveness.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/letstalktherapywork/message

If you live long enough, you'll eventually have to deal with the death of a loved one. Everything that lives eventually dies, but just because death is natural doesn't make it any easier to navigate. Grief is a universal consequence of loss, but it is also a very individual experience. Since everyone is likely to face this type of loss more than once in a lifetime, it's worth the effort to understand the grief process and how to navigate it. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/letstalktherapywork/message
When you've been hurt by someone, there is more to the pain than "just" the one event.

Growing your ability to deal effectively with these disagreements is a pretty good use of your time. You can solve a lot of challenges and avoid any issues if you have effective communication skills. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/power-talk-live/message
