09 Oct Being Well Podcast: When Others are Undependable
Today we have a special episode for you concluding the strength of Intimacy. This episode is taken from my online Foundations of Well-Being program, and focuses on a key component of Intimacy that we alluded to during our previous episode on Unilateral Virtue: dealing with undependability in our relationships.
We have a natural desire to trust a reliable world – but life happens, and no person or organization is perfectly dependable. So, we often under- or over-react to undependability, harming ourselves and others.
During this talk, I focus on how we can face undependability squarely, and cultivate the inner resources that help us cope with it.
