DESCRIPTION

You're in a relationship — maybe a good one — and still there's this nagging sense that you've lost track of yourself somewhere along the way. Or the opposite: you feel fine on your own, but the moment your partner gets close, something shuts down. Neither of these is a communication problem. They're both versions of the same thing.

This episode is about what it actually takes to be a distinct person inside a committed relationship — and what goes wrong when that breaks down in either direction.

This is the kind of territory Jackie and Catherine work through with clients — not as a framework to memorize, but as a live question to sit with in your own relationship. If something in this episode landed and you want to think it through with one of them, a free 15-minute consultation is a good place to start.
