Is this you?
If there is one thing I see over and over and over with women who “do the work,” it’s that they all, at some point, find themselves in a dynamic where they become a dumping ground for someone’s story and trauma. People (including men) feel safe opening up to them and then a few things happen - either they stay open, lose themselves and consume the energy of the person sharing, which leaves them feeling heavy, uncertain and drained. Or, they begin to coach, therapize (a word I made up) and try and fix the issues being revealed to them by the other person. The number of women these days who are tired of holding for their men is high. I hear it often online and I had the same thing in my past relationships.
There was even an article in Vice talking about the phenomenon of “Mankeeping", which shows me how many women find themselves in this spot and have no idea that they are responsible for this dynamic playing out in their relationships. Also, when you “mankeep,” you kill the eros and that will be the death of the relationship.
I think this is a great initiation for those of us who have healing energies. We all have to do this dance with our relationships and it’s part of the curriculum of our own expansion and trusting the power of our energy.
When we find the spot of holding ourselves in such a way that we can allow someone their experience without taking it on or jumping in to fix it, we create an opportunity for real transformation - for BOTH people. This is the power of Witnessing.
But how, you might ask.
Well, we’re going to get right into it in tomorrow’s REUNION workshop. We’re going to look at different situations with men and women (that also apply to all sexes) where we get looped into dynamics that kill the spot of connection and transformation. You know, those conversations you seem to have over and over again that end up at the same place?
I’m going to guide you into feeling the actual energies that are playing out in your own system during these conversations and we’re going to practice what it means to truly witness someone.
This will change your relationships.
Because this is such a big one, I have decided to offer this workshop as a 2 for 1 deal so you can bring someone you care about. They must come live and then they will also get a recording.
If you cannot make it live, you can still sign up and get the recording.
The workshop is $99.
It will give you a blueprint that will transform the way you care for those you love.
So join us Tuesday, November 25th at 3pm EST. It will be about 2 hours.
You can sign up here.
