Episode38: How People Pleasing Affects Your Non-Monogamy Journey with Paige Bond

Explicit

Today my special guest is Paige Bond.

Paige is the host of the Stubborn Love podcast, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and Creator of the Jealousy to Joy Journey. Her mission is to help people-pleasing millennials navigate non-monogamy so they can tame their jealousy and love with ease. Her own journey from feeling lonely, insecure, and jealous to feeling empowered and reassured through her Jealousy to Joy Journey is what fuels her passion to help other people-pleasers to conquer jealousy and embrace love.

This conversation is so interesting. We talk about Attachment Styles and how they affect our ability to trust our partners connections with ourselves and with others. People Pleasers tend to have an Anxious Attachment style and suffer from very different fears than Dismissive Avoidant partners. We talk about Non-Monogamy and how to navigate it without fear. We learn how to communicate difficult emotions to get us through the struggles we might encounter.

We learn the difference between enmeshment and attachment and connection and how enmeshment can be destructive to a relationship. It's easy to struggle with jealousy if we aren't clear about this. We can focus on being abandoned or focus on connecting with our partners and creating a safe place place for each other.

We learn to speak up for our needs and not shame our desires. We can create what we desire in a relationship and don't have to stay in a situation that does not feel good to us and is not growing.
