Session 8: Getting What You Need in Relationships

<p>The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.</p> <p>May is Mental Health Awareness Month and in honor of this, all of the podcasts this month will focus on Relationships! This week's episode focuses on romantic relationships. I discuss the top 7 reasons why you're not getting what you need and want in relationships:</p> <p>1. You're afraid to ask for it.</p> <p>2. You're being passive in the process.</p> <p>3. You're too busy listening to others or comparing yourself to others.</p> <p>4. You've convinced yourself you don't need or want love.</p> <p>5. You're not clear about what you need and want.</p> <p>6. You're not being flexible.</p> <p>7. You haven't healed from past hurts.</p> <p>For more information and resources, visit the website at <a href="http://www.therapyforblackgirls.com" target= "_blank">therapyforblackgirls.com</a></p> <p>To join the conversation on social media, use the hashtag <strong>#TBGinSession</strong>.
