In today's episode Angela talks about the concept of differentiation. Differentiation refers to our ability to develop and evolve psychologically, on our own and in relationships with others. In relationships we need to maintain our sense of self while also getting close to another person without losing our identity. Differentiation means we are neither emotionally fused nor are we completely separate from each either; we know who we are and we can tolerate our partner being different from us. We can be our self within the structure of an intimate relationship. The higher the level of differentiation in the couple, the more mature and successful the relationship. In today's episode Angela discusses the signs that show that you are in a relationship where one or both partners are poorly differentiated. Or maybe you are in a relationship that shows high levels of differentiation?Being locked up and thrown more closely together as a couple has been quite challenging for lots of couples during the pandemic. One indicator of a relationship that is mature and able to survive a lot of strain and stress in the relationship is the level of differentiation. Arguably a high level of differentiation in both partners is the number one indicator of a successful relationship. In a nutshell differentiation is the process by which we become more uniquely ourselves by maintaining ourselves in relationship with those we love. There are two forces that pull us in a different direction in every relationship:Our need for togetherness. The pull to be loved and belong, to be part of a group. In this polarity, we might choose to minimize our personal preferences or dull our traits in order to be loved by our partner.Autonomy/individuality. The pull to be myself and to follow my own directives. The need to create our own unique identify. Differentiation is higher order to togetherness and autonomy. In relationships we need both. In today's society independence is prized above all. It is seen as as strength. Therefore there is often confusion about this in relationships. Surely, if I am more independent that's a good thing? Independence is a very valuable but relationships also require interdependence. We all have a need to be cared for and loved.Signs that there are low levels of differentiation in the relationship includeAn excessive need for harmony and the complete avoidance of conflict.Constant fighting as both partners can only see their own position as valid. Distancing yourself from your partner based on the belief that nothing can be resolved.Leading separate lives.Spilling over into each other. One or both partners feel responsible for the feelings of the other.Signs of high levels of differentiation in a couplesHaving a strong sense of self.Being able to distinguish between feeling and thought.Knowing your own position while tolerating that of others.Solid self but permeable to others. You can take on different perspectives without ‘losing yourself'.Being able to connect with your partner without fear of being taken over by their emotion.Being able to have mutuality in the relationship: following your own path for growth as well as being concerned about your partner's wellbeing and growth.We are adding more and more resources on our website The Relationship Maze - head over there now and find new ways to help you improve your relationships.Get additional show notes on our podcast website here.

POTUS Trump's weekend tweets triggered an explosive and decisive reaction from Congress and those affected by them. Trump seems to thrive from knowing he can trigger emotional and political reactions from his tweets whether he means them or not. What does this say about the state of reactivity in our country. Also, Kanye West is featured on the cover of Forbes Magazine and the article about him gets inside his mind. West is quoted in the article as saying "radical obedience to Christ" and "God lining things up" as key things to his creative and melancholy self. Dr. Neal discusses these two on the show today
Today is a great day because Zera Today is 9 years old! What began as a experiment on internet radio has blossomed into a show that is empowering people across the world. Dr.Neal has interviewed some wonderful guests and discussed some wonderful and thought provoking topics. This show walks down memory lane as well as goes into the topic of the self and choice. How does self-differentiation impact our choice within the broader community?
Differentiation of Self is a concept in Murray Bowen's Family Systems Theory that deals with how individuals engage in their intersonal relationships. While used in family therapy, it is applicable to organizations such as the church. Dr.Neal discusses how a well differentiated person can enjoy a deeper and healthier spiritual life also.
This past weekend, noted Hip Hop artist, entreprenuer, and community activist Nipsey Hussle was assassinated in broad daylight in front of his business. This was another bold and senseless act of violence committed by one black male against another that has made national headlines. This is a symptom of a greater issue of emotional intelligence, health and wellness among black males that lead to acts of domestic and gun violence against our own. A person's ability to be self-differentiated can help prevent events such as this from happening. Join Dr. Neal as he presents strategies to help individuals and black males in particular become highly self-differentiated.
