KEEPING THE PEACE AT
ALL COSTS
Self-betrayal can also come in the form of keeping the peace in your
relationships at all costs. This might mean avoiding conflict, walking on
eggshells, not sharing your true thoughts and feelings and more.
Since conflict can feel scary sometimes, you might feel "safer" by avoiding it.
However, when you're keeping the peace and avoiding conflict at the cost of
your own wellbeing and happiness, you're in the realm of self-betrayal.
If you're not willing to have your own back to work through a disagreement,
then you're not loving and supporting yourself - which as you probably know
doesn't feel very nice.
Self-Check-In
1.How confident do you feel in your ability to address conflict? Do you feel like
you need extra information or support to be able to healthily address conflict?
2. How did your parents or guardians model having conflict and
disagreements to you when you were a child?
