Conversations from the Heart

#34 - Making Peace With Pain

Yvette Erasmus Season 1 Episode 34

There's a big difference between feeling hurt and being harmed.

In this week's episode I start with a few recent realizations from my own life regarding hurt and harm, and then we move into the following questions:

  1. How do I respond to someone accusing me of gaslighting when the person remembers a situation differently from me?  (8:40) 
  2. How do I talk about something painful and convey what I need to be helped or move past it? (26:57) 
  3. How do I connect with a person who is completely shut off? (35:39) 
  4. What do I do when I’m unsure if I want to continue a relationship with someone I feel judged me? (38:36) 

Feeling overwhelmed with the current state of the world? You're not alone, and I can help. Join me on Thursday, May 29th as I host The Soft Revolution Begins With You: Living Love As Daily Resistance. This FREE webinar will explore how to stay rooted in love when the world feels harsh, broken, or chaotic and what it means to live your values as a form of daily resistance. Sign up today!
