Maxed Out

Maxed Out

Randy crashed out. He was angry and ready to give up and walk away from even doing this week's podcast. When Heads get maxed out, they can shut down and explode. Hearts get maxed out too - especially when the Head is being angry. In this episode, Randy and Beverly take you inside their moment of being maxed out. Jump in and see how these problems arise and how to defuse them. If you feel like you're drowning... or you think you're the unappreciated one carrying everything in the relationship... you're probably in the middle of your own 'maxed out' moment. The lifeguard is coming but will you be calm enough for a rescue or will you drown them too? #MaxedOut #CrashOut #HeartVersusHead #stress #overloaded #cantdoitanymore #whytry Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2443878/fan_mail/new] Heart Versus Head is a podcast about relationship styles and how those relationship styles influence communication in the most important relationships.

It's a good thing in a relationship because it provides balance but like so many things in the world of Heart Versus Head... it can be a minefield.
