What do you want?](https://thanksforsharing.podbean.com/e/episode-379-what-do-you-need-what-do-you-want/) _2026-08-12 · Thanks for Sharing_ For a lot of people, those are surprisingly difficult questions to answer. Sometimes we genuinely don't know. Sometimes we know, but we've learned to keep parts of ourselves private. Sometimes we've gotten very good at figuring out what's practical, reasonable, available, or best for everyone else before we consider what we actually want. And sometimes "be grateful" quietly became "don't want… [Listen](https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/3p5qrppj9g2afik6/Episode379.mp3) ## [Episode 378: "I Know It's Best to Just Move On":](https://thanksforsharing.podbean.com/e/episode-378-%c2%a0i-know-its-best-to-just-move-on/) _2026-08-05 · Thanks for Sharing_ There's a moment almost everyone knows: someone says something, and before you've even processed it, you're already deciding not to react. You smile. You let it go. And somewhere in that quiet moment, you might be abandoning yourself. In this episode, I talk about the difference between self-abandonment (the pattern) and self-betrayal (the moment-by-moment choice that builds it) — and why… [Listen](https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/3tcmq4dkr2mrr49z/Episode378.mp3) ## [LISTEN AGAIN: The Afterlife of Mary, Queen of Scots](https://pod.co/for-the-love-of-scotland-podcast/listen-again-the-afterlife-of-mary-queen-of-scots) _2026-08-05 · Love Scotland: Stories of Scotland's History and Nature_ This summer, we’ve been celebrating the best of Scottish books and authors.

Your "too much" might just be someone who hasn't finished growing into her enthusiasm yet. In this episode, I talk about the difference between adaptation and development, why the traits that got labeled as problems in childhood (stubborn, dramatic, bossy, shy) were often never the problem at all. They just hadn't matured yet. We go deep:… [Listen](https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/ke2h6zspaz3iv983/Episode377.mp3) ## [Episode 376: Narcissistic Neglect](https://thanksforsharing.podbean.com/e/episode-376-narcissistic-neglect/) _2026-07-22 · Thanks for Sharing_ The deepest injury of narcissistic neglect isn't what happened to you. It's what never consistently happened for you. Nobody wondering what you were thinking. Nobody asking what you felt. Nobody staying curious about who you were becoming. And when those thousands of small moments are largely absent, something else develops in their place. Not a self. An adaptation. An identity organized around… [Listen](https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/3crahihu79hs6vxc/Episode376.mp3) ## [LISTEN AGAIN: Diana Gabaldon and the story of Outlander](https://pod.co/for-the-love-of-scotland-podcast/listen-again-diana-gabaldon-and-the-story-of-outlander) _2026-07-22 · Love Scotland: Stories of Scotland's History and Nature_ This summer, we’re celebrating the best of Scottish books and authors.

For some of us, touch meant comfort and safety. For others, it meant obligation, manipulation, or even fear. Some of us grew up in families that hugged all the time. Others rarely experienced physical affection. And sometimes, it wasn't the presence or absence of touch that mattered most—it was what that touch… [Listen](https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/kqtjm73i96uygu7m/Episode374.mp3) ## [Every Channel.

It changes the relationships around you. One of the biggest surprises in healing is that being healthier doesn't always feel better, at least not at first. The people around you have learned the old dance just as much as you have. So when you stop over-explaining, caretaking, shutting down, or apologizing for everything, the relationship often… [Listen](https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/uhzfwg7tckb6v8at/Episode373.mp3) ## [Episode 372: Now What? Developing the Second Response:](https://thanksforsharing.podbean.com/e/episode-372-now-what-developing-the-second-response/) _2026-06-24 · Thanks for Sharing_ You can understand your pattern completely. You can know exactly where it came from, what it's protecting you from, why it shows up the way it does. And still, in the moment, you do the thing anyway. That's because understanding a pattern and interrupting it are two different skills. And interrupting it and actually replacing it — building something to put in its place — that's a third skill… [Listen](https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/f8tf5bxur4bfhyks/Episode372.mp3) ## [Denise Mina: tales of historic fact and fiction](https://pod.co/for-the-love-of-scotland-podcast/denise-mina-tales-of-historic-fact-and-fiction) _2026-06-24 · Love Scotland: Stories of Scotland's History and Nature_ This week, Jackie is kickstarting a summer of reading-related episodes with one of Scotland’s most beloved writers, Denise Mina.

Interrupting them in real time is something else entirely. In this episode, we talk about the tiny space between the trigger and the reaction — and how to find it, use it, and slowly make it bigger.
