Episode #18 - Being the Rejector: How to Have Hard Conversations

September 01, 2023 • Eve Milford • Season 1 • Episode 18

This episode I delve into the intricate dance of rejection dynamics and exploring the complexities of rejecting someone while nurturing empathy and respect.

I uncover how fear of rejection can affect our ability to set healthy boundaries and how working through your own fear of rejection will radically help with being able to speak up and say "no".

I encourage listeners to take the plunge at being the rejector even at the most minor of opportunities instead of either ghosting or brushing under the carpet, this puts you in good stead for when it's time to have those harder and more complex conversations.

The show includes topics on:

Acknowledging the Complexity
The Dual Role of Emotions
Understanding Their Emotions
Balancing Empathy and Self-Care
A Shared Human Experience

I conclude this episode with valuable insights in "Dealing with Their Reactions", where I explore the intricacies of responding to emotional reactions post-rejection.

Step into a world where the delicate dance of rejection is met with empathy, respect, and growth. Don't miss this episode of Relationships In Recovery.
