Welcome to the Shift with Intention podcast! Today is a solo episode where Jaime shares her certificate of graduation from the therapist she had been seeing for the past couple of years. It's also the best time to explore some nuggets of wisdom that she has picked up and how these can help you too. She discusses the Drama Triangle and how to resolve conflicts by asking questions instead of blaming others as a kneejerk reaction. Jaime also talks about determining her value system and the process of pattern recognition that leads to growth and positive change. Lastly, Jaime highlights the 7 Elements of Trust (BRAVING) by Dr. Brené Brown: Boundaries, Reliability, Accountability, Vault (confidentiality), Integrity, Non-judgement, and Generosity, and how walking the talk improves your interpersonal relationships. HIGHLIGHT QUOTES Overreacting to something means that it's your stuff to heal from - Jaime: When we have a reaction that is bigger than what a normal reaction to that problem would be, that means it's our stuff. And that was in 2012 I learned that. So now we're in 2023 and I've utilized that so much and shared that with people close to me." "And so like let's say, your kid decides that he's going to cancel on an event with a grandparent or something, and this wasn't the situation but this is a situation of somebody I was helping, and that person was like, are you kidding me? You can't do that and kind of overreacting to the situation at hand. And so that means that that's their trigger or their stuff to heal." The Drama Triangle is comprised of the bully, victim, and rescuer - Jaime: "We move around the triangle until one of us moves out of the triangle into a clear and healthy communication pattern. So in non-healthy relationships, and no judgment, we all look at them. So please don't take any of this as judgment. The reason I have this is because I used to be in the drama triangle. So we move around the triangle until we don't, just like everything in life. So the parts of the triangle. We have the bully, we have the victim, and we have the rescuer."
