We don't want to show our faults and shadows. We fear that people will hurt, reject, or leave us if they see how "pathetic" we are.
Therefore we create environments where you have to bring your "best self", which lead to self-presentation and shallowness. The result is atmospheres lack vitality, play, or growth.
In this talk I explain why creating spaces where faults are welcome can enhance and deepen your relationship.
Examples are given from the clinic and my personal life.
Practical tips will help you create such open spaces in your relationships.
