Getting Underneath Your Need to be Right

ShrinkChicks - A podcast by Jennifer Chaiken, LMFT and Emmalee Bierly, LMFT - Mondays

On this week's episode of ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen are talking about the need to be right and why it can be so hard to let this go. They start off the episode by sharing how each of them feels about being right in their relationships and also with one another. They expand on the importance of feeling heard and seen, why it can be easier to let arguments go with some people and not others, where stubbornness can come from, and being right vs. being close. Emmalee and Jen tell us how to work toward getting underneath the need to be right and examining where it might come from. They answer your questions about making mistakes at work, how to navigate the need to be right with a partner, the fear of being wrong and so much more! The episode wraps up with a Dear Em & Jen question about a listener who may be compromising their own growth just to prove a point. Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!
