Description

In this heartfelt conversation, Meg opens up about recurring relationship patterns, overgiving, and the struggle to let go of control. Jillian helps her unpack what happens when we skip the “middle space” between awareness and empowerment, the emotional processing that keeps us human. Together, they explore self judgment, pattern interruption, and how curiosity can transform both relationships and inner peace.

Key Themes:

• Recognizing emotional patterns and breaking cycles through awareness
• The importance of feeling before fixing
• How self judgment mirrors judgment of others
• The power of curiosity as an antidote to judgment
• Pattern interruption as a way to shift relationship dynamics

Quotes:

• “Trying to control has resulted in losing control because I’m skipping the middle piece of actually feeling it.”
• “If you’re judging yourself, you’re absolutely judging others and vice versa.”
• “Curiosity is the antidote to judgment.”
• “It’s okay for me to be disappointed. It’s okay for me to be frustrated. It’s okay to cry.”
• “Relationships connect us to our humanity. They have to be front and central to who we are.”
