Survival Mode Series, Part 1

from You Handled That Perfectly® Hosted by You Handled That Perfectly® with Kelly Avalon + Carly Cruickshank

Feeling Dismissed. In Part 1 of our Survival Mode Series, we’re unpacking one of the most common disconnects in relationships: feeling dismissed. Why does it happen, why does it leave us stuck in survival mode, and what actually helps? We’re diving into the difference between fixing and connecting, and how small shifts can help both partners feel more seen, heard, and understood.
