How do you manage when your relationship feels like it's on shaky ground, especially when you're both on separate recovery paths? Rev. Rachel Harrison dives into this delicate subject in the latest episode of 'Recover Your Soul.' With her signature blend of spirituality and positive psychology, Rachel offers a fresh perspective on handling the emotional rollercoaster of relationships where partners heal at different speeds.
Drawing from her own experiences and insightful listener comments, Rachel emphasises the importance of focusing on personal healing before attempting to change your partner. She shares the 9-Step Soul Recovery Process as a guiding light for navigating these complexities.
The episode is peppered with anecdotes about therapy sessions, where Rachel and her husband Rich discovered their individual protective mechanisms, like Rich's 'judge' persona and Rachel's inner 'frightened little girl.' These revelations led them to see each other with new eyes and begin anew, shedding old skins like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon. Rachel encourages listeners to let go of blame and resentment, suggesting that relationships can be a profound opportunity for self-discovery.
It's not about fixing the relationship but understanding who you are independently and how you can grow together.
