Resistance Assistance

Join Amanda Freed and Tyler Woods, Ph.D., on Nothing’s Alright as they explore resistance with humor, honesty, and a gentle touch. Why do we push back, shut down, or dig in our heels—and what might those reactions be telling us? Resistance isn’t inherently good or bad. Sometimes it helps us protect our boundaries; other times, it keeps us stuck in familiar patterns. One place to begin is by naming what we’re feeling. Is it fear, frustration, uncertainty, or a need for safety? Listen in as Amanda and Tyler untangle resistance and explore how curiosity and compassion can help us decide when to stand firm and when to make room for change.
