Past Hurt & Present Relationships

We often climb the ladder of professional success, ensuring every rung is sturdy and every step is calculated. But what about the ladder of our personal relationships? ??

For many of us, especially those in high-demand fields, the unresolved hurts of the past, aka emotional trauma, can unknowingly cast shadows on our present relationships.?

Here's how:

Reactive Tendencies: Past hurts can make us reactive, often leading us to misinterpret our partner's actions or words.

Tip: Before reacting, pause and reflect.

Is this a truly present issue or a past ghost in the system? How you handle these is dependent on which it is.

Emotional Escapism: Diving deep into your work life might seem like a solution, but it's often an escape from confronting our emotional wounds.

Tip: Remember, true balance is achieved when our personal life mirrors our professional success.

Interlocking Traumas: Just as gears interlock and drive a machine, our hurts & emotionally wounding experiences can interlock with our partner's, causing a cycle of misinterpretation and misunderstandings.

Tip: Open communication is key. Share your stories, understand where you and your loved ones are coming from, and heal together.
