It’s annoying when women back away when we’re not confident but there’s a very good reason for it that flies in the face of modern societal beliefs that men and women are the same. We are equal in terms of rights, but we are not the same and this is very apparent when we’re talking about taking risks vs needing emotional safety, especially around intimacy.
In this episode I talk about why we use horses as a metaphor for men to learn why emotional safety is so important for women, I also talk about what holds us back from providing this safety and why we will remain stuck at the same level of relationship until we learn to lead this forward – yes you must go first.
