Ep 161: Thinking Yourself Into Better Relationships

Relationships are not actually about other people.They are about the thoughts we think about other people.And that is incredible news.Because it means that even when another person doesn’t change, even when circumstances don’t shift, even when history is complicated… you still have agency. You can change the entire emotional climate of a relationship by changing the way you think, feel, and show up inside of it.In this episode, we explore why it only takes one person in a relationship shifting their inner world to transform the dynamic between two people.
