Track 6 of 8 for the Jefferson Denim EP "Choose Your Own Adventure." Have you ever felt "gaslit" before? Been subject to emotional abuse to the point where you question yourself and your sanity? Whoever is doing that to you...time to let that shit go. You are worthy of good/healthy love. To all those who are willing to go to therapy, come to terms with the hidden triggers caused by previous trauma, and also willing to imagine their best selves so that they can exist in the give and take of healthy relationships - this song is dedicated to you.

Love You Good

Do you find yourself saying things like "we can only talk once a week" or "it's too late to make plans now"? You might be disguising control as boundaries without even realizing it.

Here's the truth: rigid rules in relationships come from fear. Fear of being taken advantage of. Fear of losing control. Fear of trusting the flow between you and another person.

In this episode, Tracy explores:
* Why rules are really about control, not protection
* The difference between boundaries and rigid demands
* What you're actually afraid of when you won't compromise
* How authenticity creates real connection
* Why middle ground doesn't mean losing yourself

"Rules are not the path to developing deeper connections with people. When you are authentic and speak your truth, you can compromise without sacrificing yourself or your values." ~ Tracy Crossley


#812: Rules in Relationships: WTF is Compromise? (REBROADCAST)

A lot of us live in our head, disconnected from our feelings and intuition. This podcast touches on releasing insecure attachment, accepting your authentic self and getting “unstuck” by connecting to how you FEEL instead of how you THINK. I’ve been there, and discuss sensitive subjects using my own experiences with a lot of laughs and even more empathy… because we’re all flawed humans.
