Have you ever nitpicked your partner’s physical appearance and felt so guilty for it? You are NOT ALONE! In this episode I address a community-submitted topic: hyper-fixation on “small, superficial, or physical traits about my partner, like teeth, hair, posture, or mannerisms.” Hyper-focus on our partner’s physical appearance can cause us to feel shame, so I discuss how to shift out of the shame and into more self-compassion. I also address the question of “if they were exactly the person they are right now, but looked different or to my ideal standard, then would all the questions around it go away?” DM me @youloveandyoulearn on Instagram with your takeaways! — Additional resources: Join Deconstruct the Doubts digital course here (instant + lifetime access) Download the free video training: The Single Most Important Lesson in Healing Relationship Anxiety Visit my website Connect with me on Instagram
