In todays' therapy session...Griffo tells Heidi that the worry of finances is taking up all of his brain space and this is WHY he isn't emotionally available and present. His needs aren't being met.
Press play and let us know what you think of the episode
Complete the FOUR TRUTHS tool regarding two scenarios of conflict/ upset. Use one scenario that's between you both, and one scenario that's between you and someone else. Try to identify and articulate the very essence of each truth.
✨ Allow your yearning and their pain to be radically different.
✨ Allow their pain to be different to what you think they should have experienced.
✨ Allow their yearning and your pain to be radically different.
✨ Identify the 'assumed ill-intent' that your mind decided for them (e.g. they were being controlling, they were being critical etc).

Heidi & Griff speak openly about having another child. Griff is a no & Heidi is desperate for another. Her words, "I feel broken."
The couple had to bring a conflict to their therapy session with Fish, they both came with the topic - baby number 2.
This is a very personal, vulnerable insight into their relationship and the conversation they are trying to have around baby number 2 and seeing each others pain instead of fighting about it.
Heidi's heart is OPEN in this ep in a big way, you may need to grab some tissues.
Here's what I want you working on between now and next session, so that you are building your skills and laying new mental pathways:
1. For 2 new conflict scenarios (perhaps you want to continue with the baby scenario?), continue to practice using the 4 TRUTHS tool (attached) and record in your journal.
✨ Validate all 4 quadrants as deeply as you can. Find as many layers as you can.
✨ Allow for incongruence in each quadrant (things that don't make sense, yet are both true)
2. For each scenario, use the TENDING TO THE 4 TRUTHS tool (attached) to create:
✨ A pink diagonal statement (honouring the essence of your yearning AND their pain)
✨ A white diagonal statement (honouring the essence of your pain AND their yearning)
I've attached some different examples of diagonal statements in a PDF so you can find which feel most authentic, or invent your own.

In therapy session 4 our First Time Parents GO deep into baby number 2 debate.
Griffo doesn't want another one, as he felt depressed after their son Memphis was born. Heidi is desperate for baby number 2 and she bravely speaks into what this feels like.
The couple get very REAL & candid about their therapy session in a post chat, Heidi wants Griffo to feel more into her pain.
You will need tissues for this one, it's a BIG session of both of them FEELING each other. Lots of tears & pain.
THERAPY SESSION 5 BABY #2 UPDATE
