Patterns: Disempowering and empowering ways we seek connection & love - LaRocque Life Podcast Ep 37
Nov 23, 2022Patterns.
We all live by them, but it’s not always easy to identify them.
And so often, we’re living by patterns that have been handed down to us from our parents, and our parent’s parents - shit that is so engrained in our way of being and doing that we don’t even realize until that moment when we think “wow, I sound like my mother right now.”
In this episode, we’re talking about patterns, including why they always repeat themselves until you do something about it, and how you can disrupt the cycle of unhealthy patterns. We’re also sharing our own real-life example of our own relationship patterns and what we did to change them.
This is a great episode to tune in to if you ever wonder why the same fights keep happening in your relationship, or you already know that you live by unhealthy patterns already but don’t really know what the hell to actually do about it!
