How To Live With The Irreconcilable

Living with the irreconcilable means living in discord. It means staying with someone you love but don't trust. Or choosing one life but longing for another. In my case, it means loving travel and choosing to travel internationally with 3 small children: I choose both the adventure and the sleeplessness. In this week's episode, I share about the psychological process of splitting, where we separate the good from the bad so we can join with the good, instead of seeing the whole picture. Living with the irreconcilable means giving up the goal for a solution. It means asking yourself: can I hold both sides?This podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as a substitute for professional mental health treatment, diagnosis, or therapy.
