This week on ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen are thrilled to have a listener favorite guest, and one of their mentors, Terry Real, back on the podcast to tell us all about his new book: Us: Getting Past You and Me to Build a More Loving Relationship. Terry shares some stories and concepts from the book, how Bruce Springsteen writing the forward of "Us" came to be, the difference between “us” vs. “you and me”, two parts of our brains: the wise adult and the adaptive child and what they mean, fight, flight, freeze, and fix responses to our partners - and which one Emmalee, Jen and Terry identify with, why Terry believes couples therapists should lovingly take sides, and so much more!  Link to Terry’s new book Us: Getting Past You and Me to Build a More Loving Relationship: https://www.amazon.com/Us-Getting-Build-Loving-Relationship/dp/0593233670/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1654019537&sr=8-1 Terry’s website & Relational Life Therapy Training: https://terryreal.com Never miss an episode of ShrinkChicks on YouTube by subscribing here! https://youtube.com/channel/UCrxuhDqoL4ML3UE8b2J2BBg Thanks to this week's sponsors for supporting ShrinkChicks!
