About this listen
What does it actually mean to "hold space" for someone? And why do so many of us struggle to do it, especially with the people we love most?
In this conversation with my husband Rabbi Yonasan Reiser, we dive deep into the nervous system dynamics of holding space - from the protective bubble we create around someone's experience to why our instinct to "fix" actually disconnects us from the people we're trying to help.
We get real about the challenges of holding space in marriage, why men and women often need different things when they're dysregulated, and how understanding someone's nervous system state changes everything about how we show up for them.
What we explore:
The energetic container of holding space
Why our children need their full emotional experience
How dysregulation affects our ability to hear solutions
Why "fixing" often misses the mark completely
