Ep 151 Q&A Session: Are They Actually Too Good for You?

Episode 151 Q&A Session: Are They Actually Too Good for You is part of a series where we discuss topics and/or questions submitted by our listeners. In today’s episode we’re discussing the question, “What can lead someone to say to you that you are too good for them? Trauma, lack of self worth, etc.?”We’re getting into:The question of, “Wouldn’t they want to rise to the occasion if they really wanted to be in relationship with you?” and the possibility that somebody would use this as a way to lessen the hurt of not wanting to be togetherSomebody in a state of active substance abuse may use this phrase as a way to continue hiding behind their addiction How men, especially, may be confronted with their own Mother Wound when faced with rejecting a woman and being presented with her emotionality, and may use this phrase as a way to avoid being honest with themselvesBeing needed vs being wanted, and how a hyper-independent/avoidant person may subconsciously avoid deeper connections because they’re chasing the feeling of being wantedThat consciousness is the key to decision making, and there’s no shame in making the easy choice in the moment with that awareness, and learning how to move forward as you learn your SelfIf you have a question or topic you’d like us to address, we would love to hear from you for our new Q+A series!

Om Podcasten

Vanessa Bennett and Dené Logan are two soul sisters and therapists who connected over their shared love of depth psychology—known as the psychology of the soul. It is a template for diving beneath the surface to examine the complex natures of being human while on the quest for wholeness, including the relationship to spirit.Through their training and lived experiences with depth, yogic psychology, and mindfulness, they developed a passion for supporting others in living their most authentic lives while cultivating a fulfilling and rich relationship with the Self, capital “S.”Every Wednesday, Vanessa and Dené look to demystify, de-stigmatize, and desensitize what goes on both inside the therapy room and in daily life, through soul-provoking conversations with fellow seekers, thought leaders, changemakers, and real people during live coaching sessions as they navigate the hard work it takes to be a human.This podcast is, for sure, Cheaper Than Therapy. Follow Cheaper Than Therapy on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Follow VanessaInstagramTikTokYouTube Follow Dené InstagramTikTok------------------------------ Hosted on Acast.
