About this episode

If you are the partner of someone with relationship anxiety, this episode is for you.

 

If you have relationship anxiety and want to be able to ask your partner for more intentional support, this episode is for you!

 

Thank you to the help of the You Love and You Learn community on Instagram for this episode. I received dozens of answers to the question “how does your partner help you navigate relationship anxiety?” to influence this episode.

 

I cover:

  • How to help a partner with relationship anxiety
  • What to say and what not to say when they’re in an anxiety spike
  • Setting boundaries to protect your own energy 
  • Is giving reassurance helpful, or not?

…and more

 

PS–the Relationship Anxiety Toolkit is LIVE! You can get it here.
