#074: Why Can’t You Read My Mind?
Tuesday Apr 04, 2023
Tuesday Apr 04, 2023
Do you find yourself guessing what others are feeling or thinking around you? Do you feel like your partner expects you to know what they want without having to tell you? Do you find yourself feeling out of sync with your partner and on different wavelengths?
Having to read someone’s mind can be problematic in relationships because it can lead to misunderstandings and hurt feelings. When we assume that we know what our partner is thinking or feeling, we may act in ways that are not helpful or even harmful.
Join TalkDoc, Meredith and Teighlor as we explore strategies for reducing mindreading in our relationships. Learn techniques for improving your empathic accuracy. Help others not have to read your mind.
