Thursday Q&A: How Do I Ask for What I Need Without Triggering Defensiveness? EP 2
from Oxygen for Women with Perry Janssen · host Perry Janssen
In this first Thursday Q&A episode, Perry tackles one of the most common questions she hears in her therapy practice: "How do I ask for what I need from my partner without triggering defensiveness or feeling like my needs are too much?" This episode explores the nervous system dynamics behind communication breakdown, offers practical body-based tools for regulation, and provides a clear framework for expressing needs in ways that invite connection instead of conflict.
