We’re licensed marriage and family therapists and trauma experts with over 30 years of combined experience. We’ve seen time and time again how people have tried to will themselves to be happy, muscle through it, and have ended up even worse off than when they began. We’ve noticed that people have experienced deep pain, whether it’s others who have hurt them or situations and the world just beating them down, and often they have turned that into an internal dialogue where they are mean...like really cruel in how they talk to themselves. They have anxiety, feel depressed and overwhelmed, all the while their self talk is telling them ”I’m not good enough, I’m a failure, I’m worthless, I’m not loveable, I cannot trust anyone, I am powerless, I’m not in control.” How emotionally exhausting!

In this poignant episode of "Mr. and Mrs. Therapy," we delve into the metaphor of the heart as a bucket with a hole, exploring how unresolved emotional issues can prevent us from fully receiving and appreciating the love of friends and family. Just as water continually leaks from a bucket with a hole, no matter how much is poured in, our hearts may fail to retain love if we have unaddressed emotional wounds or voids.
We'll discuss the psychology behind why we sometimes feel unloved or empty despite being surrounded by caring people. This episode will explore the common causes of these 'holes' in our emotional buckets – be it past traumas, unresolved conflicts, self-esteem issues, or a lack of self-love – and how they impact our ability to feel loved and connected.
Furthermore, we'll provide insightful strategies and steps towards mending these holes. From self-reflection and therapy to fostering deeper connections and practicing self-compassion, we'll guide you on a journey of emotional healing and fulfillment. Join us as we learn how to repair our hearts' buckets, so they can hold all the love that's poured into them, leading to richer, more satisfying relationships and a profound sense of being loved.
