HYMB Ep4: Relationship S.A.F.E.T.Y.
The one thing that we all need in a relationship that we seldom have is S.A.F.E.T.Y. Dr. Tisha talks about relationship S.A.F.E.T.Y and how to create it in your relationship.
What is relationship S.A.F.E.T.Y?
A relationship is a connection that can cause psychological harm if those in the relationship are
careless or reckless. Relationship Safety happens when those involved monitor and modify their actions to reduce harm to all involved.
Strive for SAFETY!
Use safety gently
Use safety openly
Use safety daily
Use safety intentionally
Remember, those who appreciate safety in a relationship will have a gentle demeanor. They value collaboration and resolution. They may show no interest in manipulating and intentionally hurting you. They admire relationship growth, so they inquire by asking caring questions, and wholeheartedly showing up because they care about the relationship and you.
