People are so eager to change others that they forget a critical question: Does the other person even want to change?

In this episode, Jason Smith explores the concept of "relational blindness" and why anxiously attached individuals get stuck trying to fix their partners instead of mastering their own inner world. We discuss the sobering reality of Sonder, the grief of letting go of someone's "potential," and why change always starts "By the One."

Key Topics:

• Why "fixing" others is a survival strategy for the anxiously attached.
• Learning to love people for who they are today, not who they could be.
• Shifting from a "survival state" to a state of flow and emotional freedom.
• How to reclaim your authority and clean up your side of the street.
