What you need to know about power: the misunderstood element in all relationships that predicts the quality of the interaction
Many people are terrified of conflict and struggle to set boundaries. Even when they know they should, they do not know how, even in spite of reading books or doing a lot of self help. But a critical element in the energy of boundaries has been missed in a lot of conventional pop psychology, and it's something that animals instinctively know. Nurturing is only half of the equation. The development of baby teeth and the bite-snap instinct in wolves, for example, is essential.
In contrast, humans are often frightened of the bite snap instinct and it has been discouraged from a young age. It is the reason why many people struggle to engage in a meaningful way with others. In this episode learn what wolves instinctively know that keeps every animal in the pack healthy and supported. Humans have lost this instinctive relationship to power, and we are suffering because of it.
