Bronze medal again! Appreciated seeing the way that y'all had productive discourse on a disagreement & the way that you both expressed yourselves respectfully. Glad I wfh on Wed. so I can hear these when they drop, great job!
We definitely took the scenic route but I paid really close attention lol Robert certainly hit the nail on the head when he said ego and fear of vulnerability. When it comes to receiving criticism, and learning to stop weaponizing low self-esteem, or these moments of low self-esteem, it is a process of practice. Mrs Sawyer touched on that when she said to work on it - something along the lines of: start doing things that help you stop. There's no quick fix to learning or unlearning behaviors. It's all a process of practice. Like strength training a muscle. I think a great place for me to start is with my partner, he's going to be my training buddy lol What I learned is that it has a lot to do with being reactive or being responsive. How you interpret the feedback you are given is going to determine if you will respond or if you will react. If you take it offensively you are going to be offended. But if you interpret it as someone expressing the ways you are hurting them or ways that you can improve you're going to be more receptive and more successful in your growth... As long as personal improvement and growth are important to you lol Also, I'm pretty sure that my favorite reddit reading stories are the really truly awful ones that are from trash people who have absolutely no self awareness... So maybe I actually am pretty toxic 🤣🤣🤣
Sammeeee 😬. I enjoy the show but I feel like there’s a lot of calling out Mrs Sawyers wrongs in a way I don’t feel is fitting for this platform. But I feel Mrs. Sawyer does a good job at not calling him out in front of their podcast audience. Idk what goes on behind closed doors. I respect he’s a psychologist but there is a time and a place, and calling your spouse out in this manner, about something trivial, which happens quite a bit, in front of strangers is not the right move. And as a black woman, when you have an audience that is from various backgrounds calling out you wife only feeds into negative stereotypes about black woman, when she clearly is not ready to receive what you’re saying (rather it’s true or not). But that’s just my opinion
I am glad story 1 never married that man. He doesn't seem like a genuine man. He seems passive aggressive. I hope her immigration status is soon resolved.
Have you tried not being depressed? That reminded me of a Bob Newhart sketch where he charges 5 bucks to help you with therapy for the 1st 5 minutes of a session. STOP IT!
Bro black women from the beginning of time that I been looking up have been looking for power there own version of power. We as men adopted strong body respect violence thing but lady don’t find there thing it use to be cooking but that don’t look cool or what ever so they want to do what look cool or what is all ready proven to get the respect they want or say they want she don’t have time to rationalize what you’re saying because she’s too busy trying to think the way you think to get a solution because your thought process usually leads to solutions the singular accomplishments like careers degrees take president because they prove something 🤔 I haven’t got that far yet but I a black man am more then willing to share my power for some of my women’s power in the form of making my life easier cus it’s not easy at all I will trade protection and money for peace and love that just makes sense to me 50:39
If this was school, she would be taking this constructive criticism and trying to figure out how to become better but this is a relationship she saying whatever why try you said I don’t do it so I’ll let you be right when is convenient to me being lazy emotionally I see it all the time like black lady’s see pookies all the time or what ever 👨🏾⚕️🩻 57:41
