That majority of people are just doing their best, trying their best, and often we misinterpret and misunderstand because of our perspective, our background, our past experiences.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST
4:09
What Alison Armstrong says that we think that you're hairy women just misbehaving.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST
4:14
And you think we're men with less hair and we're just scattered and confusing.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST
4:18
So if you even just gave that as a little bit of a basis about why do you do that? And I don't understand.
Katie WeatherupHOST
17:12
And it's a very very funny and very revealing of just kind of the deeper human nature beneath some of these things.
Katie WeatherupHOST
17:21
So I enjoyed the podcast a lot, but I was musing on the fact that when someone is willing to heal and grow, and by willing, I really like Alison Armstrong's idea of their will being completely behind it, their will is engaged, they're fully committed to this thing.
Katie WeatherupHOST
17:42
So it's not the sort of passive willing that we use sometimes in popular culture, like, yeah, sure, I'm open to healing, that'd be cool, but more of a my will and my determination and my commitment are really behind this, that even with a perspective and a book that is in a lot of ways, you know, genuinely problematic, there's still this huge opportunity for the determined person to harvest really good stuff out of it and use it to move their life forward.
Katie WeatherupHOST
18:19
And I think that's really interesting because a lot of times we feel like we need the right practice or we need the right coaching or some sort of thing, like if there's going to be a fitness program, trying to find the right fitness program or the right diet or the right counselor.
John WinelandGUEST
29:09
So they haven't been safe, yeah.
John WinelandGUEST

And so the fear, the great fear that they're fighting against is being safe in the world, right? Alison Armstrong talks about, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like it is one of the few books I've ever read that I was like, I will forever be changed from having read this book, truly.
Adele MarchantHOST
43:47
And another one of those is The Queen's Code by Alison A. Armstrong.
Adele MarchantHOST
43:49
If I could give you two book recommendations, those are like two of the best, but they are like change your brain chemistry kind of books.
Adele MarchantHOST
43:55
But yeah, having an awareness of your thoughts and recognizing your thoughts are not real, right? So what my brain is throwing up at me is not necessarily true, right? So I can hear those thoughts and not act on them not speak from them not believe them and that creates a distance between me myself my action my beliefs and the thoughts I'm hearing in my brain okay and the other thing that if I look back on between recognizing that I will be fine no matter what and recognizing that this is all emotional avoidance of uncertainty the other thing that really healed my anxious attachment and I will hammer this home to the day I die is I got a life, okay? I got a bigger life than this guy that was making me anxious, okay? I got bigger dopamine hits.

And it's two people forming a mutual agreement for their mutual benefit.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST

And one of the things I will quote our lovely Alison Armstrong as she says, a part of that word is part.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST
1:05
And what is your part? What's your part in creating a successful partnership? And what's their part? Because it doesn't just happen.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST
1:13
It really does take some thought and some care and Communicating with yourself well and communicating with the other person.
Anya ShakhGUEST
40:58
Because if you're comparing a man to a human female, then everything he does is bad and wrong if you're comparing it to her.
Anya ShakhGUEST
41:11
So Alison Armstrong has a lot of stuff about this.
Anya ShakhGUEST
41:13
She's just really great about that.
Anya ShakhGUEST
41:15
So it's like, for example, like, I was reading this something about like in 1932, the two most desired the two most desired traits for men were ambition, ambition and industriousness.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST
4:22
And it's interesting, I've been across the table from a few men who I really would say were bragging.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST
4:29
And most of the time, especially when I started learning from Miss Alison Armstrong, I learned they were just trying to say, is this the kind of strength you're looking for? Would you like me because of this? And it truly was just the facts.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST

For a woman who becomes a new mother, there is nothing more preoccupying her brain than got a new little human to take care of.
RalphHOST
3:37
I once heard the very popular content creator and author Alison Armstrong say that women tend to pay attention to what is the loudest in the relationship.
RalphHOST
3:47
And when you're a mother, the loudest thing, so to speak, in your head is the needs of this little child.
RalphHOST
3:52
And often the men at that point go like, what about husband over here? And boy, if you want to get women irate, be a man to point out, like, I kind of feel forgotten after the kid came into the picture.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST
2:18
So connection, that feeling of connected is really important to us.
Christine BaumgartnerHOST
2:24
And one of the things that's come up recently is, is this me or not me? When I'm talking to you and listening to you, do you do things that I like or don't like? And it was interesting because Alison Armstrong brought that up recently.
