(#115) Decenter to Empower: Building Healthier, Happier Relationships

from EmpowerHER · host Diana DeBolt

In this EmpowerHER Podcast episode, Diana explains what centering men costs women: sleep, confidence, time, nervous-system peace, and identity and describes how therapy can help unlearn beliefs shaped by family dynamics and patriarchy. How essential it is to learn to ask for what you need, and set boundaries. Diana contrasts past relationships with her happy marriage, where she consciously decides her husband by prioritizing friendships, travel, self-care, and career ambitions while still communicating and coordinating. The episode reframes decentering men as choosing yourself, not hating men or leaving relationships.00:06 Self Abandonment Story02:15 The Real Cost04:38 Friends Over Men06:53 Therapy and Rewiring09:27 Healthy Marriage Shift10:14 Decentering in Practice13:28 Choose YourselfFollow Diana: Work with me: ⁠https://www.coachdianadebolt.com/1-1-coaching Email- [email protected] - https://www.coachdianadebolt.com/ Instagram - @coachdianadeboltTiktok - @coachdianadeboltIf you loved this episode, rate, review and subscribe!
