The Relationship Recovery Podcast

In this episode of The Relationship Recovery Podcast, Kierstyn and Tiffany delve into the subconscious patterns that often trap individuals in toxic relationships.They identify four key patterns:1.  Low self-esteem, where individuals may accept mistreatment due to undervaluing themselves 2. Unhealthy relationship dynamics learned in childhood, which make toxic behavior feel familiar 3. Hope and denial, where individuals hold on to the hope of change or deny the severity of the issues 4. Fear of being alone, which can prevent individuals from leaving harmful relationships. By shedding light on these patterns, Kierstyn and Tiffany aim to empower listeners to break free from toxic relationships and foster healthier connections.More resources from The Relationship Recovery:Book a Discovery Call with us and begin to heal: https://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/coachingShould I Stay or Should I Go Course:https://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/stayorgoThe Breakup Recovery Course:https://thebreakuprecovery.com/⁠⁠Breakup Book of Affirmations:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/product-page/the-breakup-book-of-affirmations ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠4 Ways to Break a Trauma Bond Podcast Episode:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-relationship-recovery-podcast/id1606974947?i=1000586502294https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/therelationshiprecovery/episodes/4-Steps-to-Break-a-Trauma-Bond---EP102-e1enc7rNational Domestic Violence Hotline:800-799-7233https://www.thehotline.org/Utah Domestic Violence Coalition:1-800-897-LINK (5465)https://udvc.org/Follow us: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠//www.instagram.com/therelationshiprecovery⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https: //www.tiktok.com/@therelationshiprecovery⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https: //www.youtube.com/channel/UC0xaCdQ_S2o5tQ_ZeqeymDQ⁠⁠

Today, Kierstyn and Tiffany are discussing the challenges of high-conflict co-parenting in this episode. High-conflict co-parenting can be extremely challenging for parents and, more importantly, for the children involved. We discuss strategies in the episode to make high-conflict co-parenting a bit easier to cope with. In their discussion, Kierstyn and Tiffany emphasize the importance of effective communication in high-conflict co-parenting situations, advocating for clear, respectful, and concise communication through written channels like emails and texts to prevent misunderstandings and heated arguments. They also stress the significance of setting boundaries around parenting responsibilities, visitation schedules, and communication frequency, highlighting the need for consistency in enforcing these boundaries. Parallel parenting, a strategy that minimizes direct interaction with the other parent while fulfilling parental duties, is another approach they dive into, sharing its pros and cons based on their experiences. Conflict resolution techniques, including mediation, are discussed to navigate disputes and prioritize the child's best interests. Additionally, they emphasize the importance of self-care for parents to cope with stress and tension, sharing personal self-care practices. Legal support, such as lawyers and custody agreements, is addressed to provide structure and clarity in contentious situations. They also touch upon the use of co-parenting apps and tools to facilitate communication and schedule management while reducing conflicts, offering recommendations for these resources. Their aim is to provide valuable insights and support to parents grappling with the challenges of high-conflict co-parenting.Listeners Favorite Moments1️⃣0:00-0:50- Co-parenting is a life sentence…people think they'll be able to parent well together after the marriage, but oftentimes, the other person is trying to counter-parent.2️⃣1:55-3:05- People have an idea of what it will look like and are heartbroken if they can't do that.

Friendships are often seen as sources of joy, support, and companionship, but what happens when they turn toxic? Toxic friendships can be just as emotionally draining and detrimental as toxic romantic or family relationships. In this podcast episode, we delve into the world of toxic friendships, shedding light on the importance of recognizing and addressing them.Perhaps you've been feeling that something isn't quite right in your friendship. It might feel one-sided, with you always giving but receiving very little in return. Maybe there's an overwhelming sense of negativity that lingers whenever you interact with your friend. If any of this resonates with you, then this episode is for you!During this episode, we explore real-life experiences and tackle a listener's question about dealing with a jealous friend. Jealousy, manipulation, constant negativity, and a lack of support are just a few of the common warning signs of a toxic friendship that we emphasize. It's vital to recognize these signs early on because toxic friendships can take a toll on your mental and emotional well-being.We provide six practical tips for handling toxic friendships. First and foremost, it's crucial to be able to identify these toxic behaviors in your friendship. Once you've recognized the signs, setting clear boundaries becomes essential. Communicating your feelings openly with your friend can also be a powerful step towards resolving issues and potentially salvaging the friendship.Seeking support from trusted individuals, such as other friends, a therapist, or a coach, can provide you with the guidance and encouragement needed to navigate this challenging situation. Sometimes, considering a bit of distance may be necessary to protect your emotional health, and don't hesitate to prioritize self-care and self-reflection throughout the process. After all, ending a toxic friendship can be just as heart-wrenching as ending a romantic relationship, and healing should always be a priority.We aim to empower listeners to recognize the signs of a toxic friendship, take action to protect their well-being, and ultimately pave the way for healthier, more fulfilling connections in their lives. Remember, your mental and emotional health should always come first, even when it means letting go of toxic friendships that break your heart.EPISODE RESOURCE:BOUNDARY PDF .pdfShould I Stay or Should I Go Course:https://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/stayorgo NEED OUR SUPPORT?Book a Discovery Call with us and begin to heal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://therelationshiprecovery.as.me/schedule.php⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Download our brand new app: ⁠⁠RECLAIM YOU! ⁠⁠ Apple iOS store and the Google Play store here:http://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/reclaimyou⁠https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ott.therelationshiprecovery⁠Breakup Book of Affirmations:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/product-page/the-breakup-book-of-affirmations ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠//www.instagram.com/therelationshiprecovery⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https: //www.tiktok.com/@therelationshiprecovery⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https: //www.youtube.com/channel/UC0xaCdQ_S2o5tQ_ZeqeymDQ⁠⁠

Recent research shows that it's possible to become addicted to a relationship, a phenomenon referred to as love addiction. Picture this: the rush of happiness at the start of a relationship when those feel-good chemicals like endorphins and dopamine flood your brain, making you feel like you're on top of the world. But when things turn unhealthy or the relationship ends, you're suddenly hit with a wave of deep sadness and depression. It's a tough emotional roller coaster to navigate.For some, especially those with certain personality traits, this roller coaster becomes addictive. The intense emotional highs and lows bring a level of excitement and drama that's hard to find elsewhere, leading to a cycle of breaking up and getting back together. The pattern becomes a way of seeking the intense emotional experiences that make them feel alive and happy. This constant cycle can wreak havoc on other aspects of life, leading to irrational decisions, difficulty focusing on anything else, and neglecting important relationships outside the romantic one. If you find yourself in this pattern or know someone who does, it's crucial to seek support from a therapist, coach, or other mental health professional. These experts can help address the underlying emotional issues and guide you toward healthier, more fulfilling relationships in the future.Listener Favorite Moments: 2:45 This situation was chosen for your child14:17 We promote toxic relationships with extreme highs and lows in the media16:30 Drug addiction to a human being.That is really hard to break23:12 The cycle 26:45 it always ends with the promise that it will get better_________________Let's dive deeper into what fuels this addiction. A powerful psychological phenomenon known as a trauma bond can play a significant role in keeping us tethered to harmful relationships. This bond is like a cycle of rewards and punishments that manipulates our feelings. It starts with the hope for those small moments of relief from the pain caused by the partner. This hope becomes addictive, making us believe that change is possible, even when the person causing the harm is the one we're hoping will fix us.A trauma bond follows a three-phase pattern:1. **Tension Building:** Minor conflicts and emotional distance lead to increasing tension. The victim tries to prevent conflict by appeasing the abusive partner.2. **Explosive Incident:** The built-up tension reaches a breaking point, resulting in a major conflict or abusive incident. This phase is marked by shock, fear, and sometimes self-blame.3. **Reconciliation and Calm:** The abusive partner shows remorse, apologizes, and offers reassurances, creating a sense of relief for the victim. These moments of affection or kindness reinforce the victim's hope for change.Breaking free from a trauma bond is a complex process that often requires external support, like therapy or coaching, as well as the backing of friends and family. Recognizing the patterns and dynamics of the relationship is the crucial first step toward healing.If you're dealing with a trauma bond, you're likely not experiencing peace. However, even small changes can make a big difference. That's why Kierstyn and Tiffany want to give you access to their "7 Days to Peace" program, available for free for a limited time on their Reclaim You app, which can be found on both the Apple iOS store and the Google Play store.Listener Question: Is a trauma bond formed when two people share their past traumas? Actually, trauma bonding is quite different. It's a psychological response to abuse where the victim forms an unhealthy attachment to the abuser. For example, think of Stockholm syndrome, where captives develop sympathy or affection for their captors. This skewed perception hinders them from fully understanding the severity of their situation.If you find yourself entangled in a relationship that's causing more harm than good, remember that you don't have to face it alone—support is out there, waiting to help you on your journey toward healthier relationships and personal growth.EPISODE RESOURCE:Trauma Bonds PDF .pdfNEED OUR SUPPORT?Book a Discovery Call with us and begin to heal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://therelationshiprecovery.as.me/schedule.php⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Download our brand new app: ⁠⁠RECLAIM YOU! ⁠⁠ Apple iOS store and the Google Play store here:http://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/reclaimyouBreakup Book of Affirmations:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/product-page/the-breakup-book-of-affirmations ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Episode Show Notes Link: ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠//www.instagram.com/therelationshiprecovery⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https: //www.tiktok.com/@therelationshiprecovery⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https: //www.youtube.com/channel/UC0xaCdQ_S2o5tQ_ZeqeymDQ⁠⁠

Are you Walking on Eggshells in your Relationship?Do you ever find yourself struggling to say the right thing in your relationship? Feeling like you're caught in a lose-lose situation? That anxious feeling in your chest when you know you need to bring something up to your partner - it's like you're walking on eggshells. Well, this episode is tailor-made for you.Listener Favorite Moments: First and foremost, if you're in a situation where you're concerned about your physical safety, please prioritize your well-being. Seek help from resources like the Domestic Violence hotline. Assuming you're aiming to improve your communication dynamics, here are some insights to consider.Walking on eggshells can manifest in various ways:1. Your partner reacts angrily to minor triggers.2. Small issues escalate into disproportionately large conflicts.3. Verbal arguments become frequent.4. You're constantly on edge around your partner.5. Friends and family notice the tension.6. Fights become a regular occurrence.7. Apologies are rare from your partner.8. Responsibility is deflected onto others.9. You fear your partner due to their behavior.10. Your self-esteem diminishes.**1. Speak Your Truth**: Open communication is vital. Holding back due to fear doesn't help the situation. Of course, safety is paramount; if you're concerned about your well-being, reach out for help.**2. Create Communication Boundaries**: If your partner is open to change, set up communication boundaries. These boundaries create a safe space for both to express their thoughts and feelings. Examples include clarifying expectations around emotional states or discussing the best ways to handle tough days.Start conversations with "I" statements to avoid defensiveness. Be specific about the boundaries you're suggesting. Illustrate points with examples for clarity. Remember, this process aims to improve the relationship for both partners.**3. Make a Plan for Change**: If your partner isn't willing to change, you might need to devise a plan to make yourself feel safer in the relationship. Our "Should I Stay or Should I Go" course in the Reclaim You app can guide you through this difficult decision-making process.Deciding to stay or leave isn't easy, and it shouldn't be taken lightly. We understand the complexity and emotions involved. That's why we've created a program to help you navigate these tough choices.Remember, the goal here isn't to assign blame but to create a space where both partners feel safe and understood. Whether you're recalibrating your communication or deciding on the next step, know that you deserve a healthy and respectful relationship.EPISODE RESOURCE:Trauma Bonds PDF .pdfShould I Stay or Should I Go Course:https://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/stayorgo NEED OUR SUPPORT?Book a Discovery Call with us and begin to heal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://therelationshiprecovery.as.me/schedule.php⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Download our brand new app: ⁠⁠RECLAIM YOU! ⁠⁠ Apple iOS store and the Google Play store here:http://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/reclaimyou⁠https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ott.therelationshiprecovery⁠Breakup Book of Affirmations:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.therelationshiprecovery.com/product-page/the-breakup-book-of-affirmations ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Episode Show Notes Link: ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠//www.instagram.com/therelationshiprecovery⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https: //www.tiktok.com/@therelationshiprecovery⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https: //www.youtube.com/channel/UC0xaCdQ_S2o5tQ_ZeqeymDQ⁠⁠

Have you ever thought about how you relate to other people? Have you considered the ways you either trust or hold back trust, and how ingrained patterns of behavior set the tone for your relationships? If so, one of the big pieces of how this takes place is your attachment style. We all have one. Attachment styles begin to form when we are very young. The way they develop shape our security, our ability to deal with stress, how we set boundaries and more. There are four basic attachment styles. Secure, anxious, avoidant and fearful. The benefit of knowing which attachment style you resonate with the most is the reward of self-knowledge. This self-knowledge can help you avoid hurtful relationships and make your existing ones even better. To get started, so you can discover more about the styles, please join us for this special podcast. If you've ever wondered why you want to be close to someone but push them away because you're afraid of getting hurt… If you've ever been hesitant to open up and share your emotions… And if you've ever wondered what might be holding you back from enjoying the kind of relationship you know is possible… Let's spend a few minutes together. Let's look at these attachment styles so you can better understand some of the things happening in your life. In this special podcast, you'll discover: Which one of the four attachment styles you most closely relate to.Why it can sometimes be so difficult to trust somebody.The different ways insecurity can poison a relationship.Why it can be so easy to misinterpret your partner's behaviors.
