28: Caring or Controlling? Red Flags & Early Boundary Violations

Send Gemma a messageWelcome to another episode of the Good Mood Clinic podcast!In this episode, Gemma Gladstone follows on with the theme of red flags. A short while ago, Gemma and Justine introduced their course called The Red Flag Project. The Red Flag Project course stems from their experience working with a niche group of women going to therapy to work on a consistent pattern they observed in their lives where relationships became unsustainable. Or they kept on getting romantically involved with partners who were avoidant or had difficulty forming secure relationships. Those patterns could play out in any relationship. Because our schemas, how we were raised, and our attachment history and patterns tend to influence our partner choice and the push-pull dynamic in our relationships. There is a sub-group of women who seem to get involved with narcissistic men who could be very controlling or even dangerous, and some women find it hard to notice and act upon the early warning signs. Today, Gemma talks about the difference between caring and controlling behavior within relationships and the red flags that show up as early boundary violations. Be sure to listen in to learn about the red flags that could alert you to patterns of coercive control in your relationship.For women seeking counseling, support, or guidance, contact 1800 737 732For men seeking counseling, support, or guidance, contact the men’s helpline 1300 78 99 78Support the show🩷LOVE WISELY Priority List, join to get notified about the next Group🎓 NEW - Love Wisely Foundations Course - Get Instant Access!✅Dating App Profile CHECK-UP🎁 Dating With Insight - FREE Guide💛 Elevate You Worth - Healing Audio Bundle (50% off only for listeners) - Use coupon WORTHY Connect with Me 📩[email protected]  🌐 Website: drgemmagladstone.com 📷 Instagram: @drgemmacoaching🌻 Support the Podcast 🙏Love the show?
