Today on ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen explore the topic of all-or-nothing/black-and-white/dichotomous thinking. They start the episode off by explaining what all-or-nothing thinking looks like and the reasons why you might be engaging in it. Em and Jen then cover listener questions; topics like where this type of thinking comes from, the safety that black-and-white thinking can bring, and why it is so easy to fall into. They discuss how to challenge these thought patterns and how to reframe your dichotomous thoughts into a more nuanced perspective. Finally, they answer a Dear Em & Jen question about how to approach a loved one when they turn to all-or-nothing thinking. Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action! PS: Fast forward to around 7:55 into their convo to skip the intro and get straight to today’s content.
