[quote=HopeTex]Had a good chat with my DB coach Laurie just now. She was supportive of me dropping the rope, and the way I did it.
Laurie liked the empathy I showed in validating W, Laurie thinks this serves to release pressure and allow W to relax and open up to me, instead of feeling that I am always angry and judgmental about what she is doing. As always, ^^^ great advice.
Laurie suggested I should look for signs of this, and also look for ways to validate W again. Not for me to initiate R conversations I want to emphasize this^^^ b/c the first thing I thought when I read your post was "WHY?? WHY THE R TALK??" and I really hope you'll stand by that...
Good work
