No not adhd. This is a common confusion between adhd and ocd tendencies and behaviours. ADHD is very different and is rarely induced by environment rather environment enhances the symptoms. Whereas ocd is commonly a response from stimuli and trauma situations that create situations for the brain to become dependant on a specific set of stimuli to keep it happy with endorphins

That was my ex said. being with someone who is ADHD made him for that bit ADHD. We still talk so. But yeah, he'll agree.

Lol my old lady goes from one topic to the next and says oh baby! Then proceeds to tell me whatever it is and once you think shes done...she has more To tell ya

Dude! Y’all should have told me and I could have borough some home meds!

That's not funny😂😂😂😂

This is an incredible description of the process. In some ways, all of our memories are lies because they are jaded by bias or emotion. Trauma emotion being a huge factor. Could a good memory have been better w out the trauma? Was a bad memory worse because of trauma? Was it actually just all terrible because a parent was way more terrible than we realized at the time? I’ve been looking into genetics as well lately and how that effects our perceptions even from birth. It’s astounding.

Oh man, how Steph said the calm opened possibilities for more choices. That is so real. People don’t really understand that when we begin to let light in, we can actually see things. The more we move further out of the darkness of our trauma, the more we can let more light in. And the effect continued to unfold from there. True enlightenment. Knowing thyself. Such a great comment girl. Thanks 🎉

Very valuable conversation.Much help.Thank you ♥️🙂🙏

I'm preparing to take an MDMA journey with my husband in a few weeks time & I found this video really helpful. Thanks for sharing... here's to compassion & curiosity in all things!

No men believe that. How we are treated all our lives says we can't or even shouldn't. We are shit on all the god damn time of our lives and we don't matter.

Commented too soon. Eek!! I’m too excited for all of the things coming for you Steph! And Craig’s words of wisdom hitting about true self. 🫡

Love the show on Netflix. Also my visual of you spying on him and running into the woods is golden Lolol. Phew the amount of times I go from slight panicky to self regulating and realizing it’s actually all good during trips lol 🤪

I think I am the one that recommended his waking to narcissism podcast to you on TT! This made my whole day to see you 3 collaborate!!! So grateful for you guys!

Hooray for new episodes! I know this one is gonna be great just from the clip in the beginning (and I saw a great clip on FB too)

Steph - come back after you read your book so you can cure us all 😂🫶

Is it ok to ask people “why are you my friend?” 😂🙄 because I don’t understand why? I was recently looking into how to create self-intimacy and I feel it may all be related

Thank you for pointing out the Stepbrothers “did we just become best friends?!” Because I was saying it the entire episode 😂😂 Even when I watch the episodes I feel like I might not relate to - there’s always something that comes across that I can totally relate to. As always, thank you for holding up a mirror for all of us one topic at a time!

Relationships. All of them and my battle of entanglement with them lol

I appreciate you addressing this. So many people expect of themselves or others to be able overcome and change in a very short period after awareness. And they shame themselves or their partner not getting mastery sooner

I keep hearing Craig refer to “parts of him that…” and it’s mentally taking me to that episode about parts work

POWERFUL! ☝️

I learned to be accountable when I entered my early teens. When caught doing something wrong. But this didn't stop those around me to lie and accuse and falsely blame.

That's senator Cruz younger brother he's a nice guy

Yes to all of this....thank you for putting into words my experiences and validating my choices and discoveries...loved this!!

So many thought provoking ideas in her explanations! Great guest!

🙌🙌🙌

Thank you for showing how dysregulated relationships can work. It's a constant reminder to be vulnerable.

If I make a joke about it (hysterical)… it’s trauma (historical) 😂😂😂😆 bc humor is my coping mechanism … see what I did there?

My youngest graduates this school year 😭

Thank you for this discussion. Really wonderful listen.

We are really enjoying you at pickleball! And now enjoying this podcast. You are both blessings!

I’m behind on my episodes so I already know the next episode is about Pickleball…. Makes complete sense 🤣 I’m playing vicariously through your experiences. Is there such a thing as chair pickleball? Adaptive pickleball? Probably somewhere. I’m intrigued now bc I was totally relating to Steph and she said she was hooked from the get-go

Pool party 😂😂

The foot 😂😂😂

You don’t wade in the water do ya! You’re literally speaking aloud, the collective subconscious of men everywhere straight & gay.

Thank you. Great content, great example of communication.

Thank you for such an honest and experiential walk through of anger pattern formation. My road as a gay guy was a bit different but I walked somewhere in between the both of your journeys. A little column a a little column b. Rejecting anger as immature, and “heterosexually male” then slowly watching it destroy things from a subverted position. Great topic today. ❤

What do you mean one lifetime, how many lifetime do we have?are my missing something or am missing everything?am lost

Quite the Wordsmith ☺️

1:15:18 not me gushing at the obvious deep love y’all have for one another and wanting to know exactly how not to hurt one another 😭🫶🫶🫶

Diving in - SO EXCITED FOR THIS ONE!

Steph you're a sagittarius am I right?!

Soo relatable Steph! I'm disorganized to the max :( and when I notice myself being anxious I'll jump into avoidance out of shame/fear. It's such a tough cycle but I've come a long way from where I used to be so I have to have faith I'll be mostly secure one day.

I relate to you both so much, thank you both so much for your podcast much appreciated 🙏🏼 ❤

That was beautiful and raw! It brought a tear to my eye ❤️❤️

Man. This episode hits so hard! When she said nobody would touch her 😢 DANG. The weight can be *your* body armour. It can protect you. And how she kept saying she thought it was about weight. 🤯 and I love that you call out the narrative going on in your head - super relatable

Dear God in heaven, in 90 minutes this sums up my childhood programming and a lifetime of blindly creating a history of regret.

why are they saying secure with an italian accent
