Welcome to Do As We Say, Not As They Did!

Rejection and Connection in Relationships

Wouldn’t it be great if we always communicated perfectly and understood what our partner needed? Could you imagine never feeling insecure or dealing with rejection in a long-term relationship?

Unfortunately, real life is full of feelings that don’t always feel great.

When attempts at connection are met with rejection, it can hurt. Eventually, you might just stop reaching for your partner, or start reaching for connection in ways that don’t feel much like connection at all…like picking a fight.

This week on @DoAsWeSayPod, @DrLizPowell and @DrNerdLove are joined by Wendy Strgar, founder of Good Clean Love, to talk about long-term relationships as we age, and how change can affect our relationship to ourselves and our partners.

Rejection and conflict will always be a part of life. But you can learn how to recognize the patterns you’ve fallen into and find your way back to connection.
