The Healing You Method with Gloria Lybecker

Giving can feel safe. Receiving can feel exposed. In this episode, Gail Donohue and I look at why, and at what it takes to receive on your own terms. If you learned that your place in a relationship depended on what you gave, receiving can stir up old fears about being a burden, owing something or losing control. It can also bring up grief for the care we needed earlier in life. Receiving doesn't...

What happens after you speak honestly? Can you stay connected with yourself while someone else adjusts, and can a relationship make room for who you're becoming? In this integration episode, Gloria Lybecker and Gail Donohue gather the threads from the last three conversations: what happens after we say no, grieving the role we used to play when a boundary changes a relationship, and belonging with...

Many of us learned early that belonging required adaptation: reading the room, softening what we felt, or becoming who the relationship seemed to need us to be. Those strategies may have helped us stay connected once. As adults, they can leave us wondering whether we are loved for who we are or for how well we perform a role. In this episode, Gloria Lybec...

What happens when you know what is true for you, but living from that truth may disappoint someone you love?

What happens when healing itself quietly becomes another way of leaving ourselves?
