It’s that you’ve gotten so good at handling it that nothing is forcing the relationship to change.In this episode, we break down: Why emotional maturity can turn into over-tolerance in relationships. How careful communication can maintain the same patterns.What it means when one person is carrying the emotional weight.At some point, it stops being about how you say it… and starts being about what the relationship can actually hold.REFERENCES/RESOURCESwww.alternativescounseling.comCREDITS“We Need To Talk With Dr. Darcy Sterling” is a Sterling Standard Production.
