  • Trapped in Victim Mode? How to Flip Your Drama Triangle
    Apr 17 2025

    Life often throws curveballs that leave us feeling overwhelmed or trapped - especially during challenging times like divorce. But it doesn't have to stay that way. Dr. Carrie Johansson, a psychologist and author affectionately known as "The Sensible Psychologist," introduces a powerful yet simple framework that will shift you out of the "Drama Triangle" so you can reclaim your life.

    Throughout this podcast episode, Dr. Johansson reveals practical tools that allow you to honestly assess your situation without judgment and finally break free from the cycle of avoidance that’s keeping you stuck. She also highlights the crucial mindset shift that will help you stop waiting for motivation and move forward into action.

    Dr. Johansson also challenges conventional wisdom about relationships, suggesting that collaboration - NOT compromise - leads to healthier partnerships. By changing predictable conflict patterns and accepting that some disagreements may never be fully resolved, couples can move from resentment to understanding, creating relationships that feel less like work and more like joy.

    Dr. Johansson’s straightforward yet compassionate approach helps you discover your "next best move" in any situation, guiding you toward the outcomes you truly desire.
