This podcast is changing the way I show up in life
I hadn’t heard of the concept of the adult, adolescent, and child chairs until I stumbled upon this podcast. I have been working on issues related to codependency for awhile, and have begun doing a lot of boundary work. I have typically been triggered by the behavior of other people, and then I’ve reacted from a non-adult place, but after only listening to this show for a few days (rather fanatically as I drive and do yard work) I find myself showing up differently, especially in my currently rocky relationship with my partner. I decided to quit doing the dance with him, and the results have been noticeable. Although I don’t care for some of his behaviors I’m able to say, “That’s his stuff,” set a boundary of what I need to do to care for myself, and then move on with my day, without being scared he will leave. (Note- this is stuff I’ve been working on for years, and I think I’m ready and that’s why it’s not so difficult now. If I were just starting it would have been way harder) I realize, because of what I’m learning from Michelle, her guests, and her incredibly relatable way of explaining concepts, that people really are going to show up as they are, and that it’s okay. I am building my own sense of self and sense of worth and agency. If someone doesn’t want to move away from behaviors that are unhealthy for me to be around, then I can’t be around them. If my relationship ends, I’ll be okay. I knew this logically, but listening to this podcast is allowing my mind, body, heart, and spirit to connect it all and for me to begin implementing huge changes in my life. I wish all humans could/would be willing to learn these concepts as it would improve the way we interact in ways I can’t even imagine. Listen to this podcast. I am not a fan of using hyperbole, except for when I write humor pieces, but this podcast really might just change your life, your relationships, and help you on your journey to becoming the version of yourself you’ve always wanted to be. Thank you so much, Michelle. ❤️
