Q&A 19 – Managing Life Transitions

SHOW NOTES – Q&A 19, Season 2
Nancy writes: “Dear Panty Kickers, How do you survive life transitions: babies, moves,  new jobs etc.?”

Carolyn says:

  1. Acknowledge and accept that things are different. Don’t just pretend that there was no change, lean into your new situation!
  2. Don’t refuse to change! I’ve been fighting finding new friends in my new city, what are you refusing to do for yourself through a transition?

Becca says:

  1. Allow your partner some space to figure out what’s going on with them before you start interjecting all the time about your needs not being met.  
  2. Try to put yourself second and support your partner, which can be thankless!  
  3. Have patience, faith, and common sense! It’s not a realistic expectation to think things between you and your partner will go perfectly all the time and context clues can tell you a lot.
