Ep 76: Relationships, Self-Responsibility and Roast Potatoes (part re-release)

Cath Counihan

Oct 03, 2024

Transcript

In this deeply heartfelt and personal episode, Cath speaks to the complexity of managing family relationships around the holidays and high days (particularly when we have not had our needs met in

childhood).

How can we remain in touch with people who we may deeply love, have a lot of history with and yet the relationship may also have a lot of potential for pain? How can we turn up in these relationships, own our own stuff and still find joy in the present moment? Through the use of personal anecdotes Cath makes various points about how we can manage and even thrive at these times. This episode has lots of practical tips and suggestions so that you can craft the holiday period that will be best for you and your family, and allow this for others.

Discussion about this podcast

Grow Yourself Up

Grow Yourself Up is a podcast to support all of us in our adult lives.

Many of us did not get our needs adequately met in childhood. The devastating legacy of trauma, wounding and traumatic stress lives on in our brains, our bodies, our nervous systems and our behaviour/reactions. Which in turn impacts the way we turn up to our lives in many ways.

We are going to unpack all of this on Grow Yourself Up. This podcast will be a companion as you travel on your own road of healing and recovery. You will learn you are not alone.

Someone has been where you are.

There is hope.

We will break down shame together and learn to cultivate self compassion.

There is always the possibility for change.

And regardless of what has happened in our past, as adults we have to take responsibility for our own lives. We have to tend to our pain, our sadness and our dysfunction so that we can live a life we love and shift toxic patterns for our children.
