Welcome to The Conscious Couples Podcast with your hosts and real-life couple Emilia Smith and Alan Lazaros. Today they discuss the delicate balance between expressing your truth and your partner's capacity to receive. They share insights and tips from personal experiences and their clients' journeys, who grappled with the fear of outgrowing their partner. They also share how avoiding the uncomfortable truth can lead to suppressed emotions and potentially harm relationships. To help you visualize these concepts, they use the metaphor of 'truth pebbles,' 'truth bullets,' and 'truth cannons.' Each represents different amounts of truth and has varied impacts on your interactions. But how do you decide which one to use? They guide you through this and share how self-awareness plays a significant role in effectively communicating your truth.
