86: Boundaries vs. Jealousy: Navigating Trust and Insecurity With Therapy Jeff

The Sabrina Zohar Show

16-07-2024 • 1 hr

Jeff Gunther, known on social media as Therapy Jeff, joins Sabrina to discuss themes of jealousy in dating relationships, drawing from insights in his new book on how to show up authentically in relationships. They explore retroactive jealousy—obsessing over a partner's past relationships—and share personal experiences, highlighting that such jealousy often stems from personal insecurities and lack of self-worth. Jeff advises imagining trust in your partner and addressing insecurities openly rather than projecting them. They discuss the importance of distinguishing between boundaries and jealousy, noting that boundaries should come from a healthy place. Communication and self-compassion are key to managing jealousy. Jeff explains that jealousy is not inherently unhealthy but can be justified if a partner's actions are inappropriate. Lastly, they address the misconception that a lack of jealousy indicates disinterest, emphasizing the importance of direct communication and reassurance.
