In today's episode, I revisit The Three Circles and add in CFT. It creates structure without shame, boundaries without pressure, and awareness without rigidity. And when both partners use it, it becomes a shared language for healing instead of a battleground of expectations. A great episode for those in recovery and their loved ones. Stay tuned next week for the workbook walkthrough!

If you have any questions, please let me know. Sending everyone happy and healthy vibes,
