When you get stuck trying to manage everyone’s emotions … let them have the human experience they came for. Do you have the illusion that you can and should control how others feel? Or maybe you hold back your thoughts because others won’t like them? We all do this sometimes. When we’re always trying to make others feel better, we unintentionally don’t allow them to express their true emotions - and we don’t share our authentic selves either. Learn what true unconditional love is and how it can be better for everyone in the relationship.

In this episode

  • Holding back the truth to protect others – helpful or harmful?
  • The problems of resisting emotions: self-judgment, escaping, emotional outbursts, and blaming.
  • Roles in relationships: parent, child, or adult
  • Unconditional love is telling the truth, allowing others to feel the way they want about it, and loving them anyway.
