Topics
Lindsay: 本期节目中,我和Aaron Doughty进行了深入的对话,探讨了共情、依恋、约会、放下等主题,以及他如何克服童年创伤,并运用这些经验来帮助他人。我们还讨论了在人际关系中如何设定界限,以及如何通过信任和臣服来获得想要的东西。 Krista: 我分享了我与团队成员沟通的经验,以及在信任和高标准之间取得平衡的挑战。我还谈到了在人际关系中,直接清晰地表达,即使不那么“友善”,也可能是最爱的方式。 Aaron Doughty: 共情者的最大困境是他们为了满足自身需求而过度关注他人,却不自知。友善和善良的区别在于意图:友善是为了取悦他人并获得认可,而善良是发自内心的,不求回报。共情者或讨好型人格常常通过操纵环境来满足内在需求,并以此为借口,例如伪装成“好人”。共情者童年可能经历过控制型人物,因此将表达自我与成为“坏人”联系起来,害怕展现真实的自己。共情者应该接纳自己“不好”的一面,从而获得真正的力量,这与控制型人格不同,是一种健康的自我表达。在人际关系中,放下控制才能吸引想要的东西,因为控制会让人反感,适得其反。在友谊中,我们通常更容易放下控制,因为我们相信友谊是丰富的;而在爱情中,控制感往往源于对匮乏的恐惧。吸引理想伴侣的关键在于改变内在的信念系统,而不是改变外在环境。我们内心的许多信念都是自我实现的预言,改变这些信念就能改变我们的生活。“太多”只是自我评判,真正重要的是找到与你真正共鸣的人,而不是迎合所有人的喜好。选择以脆弱为价值观,而不是为了操控他人,而是因为这是你选择的生活方式,这能开启你的心扉,释放羞耻感。2025年我的主题是“感受活力”,跟随激情,拥抱未知,信任直觉。跟随你的快乐需要时间和过程,从你目前的状态开始,找到你热爱的点,并坚持下去。 Krista: 我过去喜欢“好男人”,现在更欣赏有自己观点和框架的男人。我认为我被有框架的男人吸引是因为我已经整合了我影子中的一部分,而过去对“好男人”的渴望可能源于我自身能量的不足。在大型活动中,我需要设定界限来保护自己的能量,避免被不必要的请求或负面情绪影响。我希望我的团队成员能将与我共事视为梦想工作,这不仅是追随我的指导,更是参与到我的事业中,共同帮助他人。我们与权威的关系常常源于童年与父母的关系,不健康的权威关系会阻碍我们发挥全部潜能。设定界限可能会导致一些人离开你的生活,因为他们不再适应你新的能量状态。 Aaron Doughty: 我从7岁到17岁都生活在一个有控制欲的继母的家庭中,这造成了我童年创伤。原谅我的继母让我开启了灵性觉醒,这改变了我的生活。我的童年创伤让我形成了“不公平”的信念,这影响了我与权威人物的关系。我学会了在表达自己的同时不害怕冲突,不再回避问题。我花了很长时间才意识到父亲在童年创伤中扮演的角色,并最终原谅了他。
