Before you move into the next room, relationship, or season of your life, do you clean first? In this episode, Robrenna uses the metaphor of cleaning a new place before unpacking to explore the residue we carry from past relationships, communities, and systems, as well as the residue others bring to our door. She shares what self-fidelity looks like as the practice of cleaning and releasing what isn’t ours, draws on Dr. Jennifer Freyd’s work on betrayal blindness to explore why that residue is so hard to see, and points to Dr. Steven Hassan’s Influence Continuum for what healthy influence looks like. She invites listeners to tend to their own space with compassion and to decide who crosses their threshold.
