In this episode, Kreed & AC join in conversation surrounding assumptions. “It might be ok. It might not. I know I can live WITHOUT the relationship. I don’t know if I can live WITH it.”  Are we living with outdated versions of our estranged loved one? Is it possible for others to have changed if I have changed? Or is it easier to stick with the ‘devil we know’ version vs  the ‘devil we do not know’ risk? ---------- http://www.TheEstrangedHeart.com Email Kreed at: TheEstrangedHeart@gmail.com ----------- Coaching with Kreed - $100 USD (55 minute session) Email Kreed at TheEstrangedHeart@gmail.com Coaching with Kreed and AC - $175 USD (55 minute session) Email Kreed at TheEstrangedHeart@gmail.com Don’t forget to check out AC’s podcast, In The Blood.
