How to Hold Space (Without Losing Yourself) – Real Talk on Love, Boundaries, and Bridge Language

What if the words you speak could heal the rifts in your relationships and help you finally feel seen? This week on the You World Order Showcase Podcast, I sit down with Brandi Berg—relationship communication coach, writer, and creator of Bridge Language—to break down the real reasons why “talking it out” usually doesn’t work (and what to do instead).

Brandi shares her powerful L.O.V.E. framework for conscious communication:

• Lean into your emotions (instead of stuffing or spilling them)
• Organize your needs, wants, and boundaries
• Voice your truth with clarity and confidence
• Exquisite expression—own your story and speak it with love

We explore:

• How to stop being hijacked by other people’s emotions
• Why “fixing” feelings is never the answer (for you OR them)
• The magic of letting yourself and others be seen—even in messy moments
• Navigating triggers, boundaries, forgiveness, and the dance of addiction to love
• Tips for empaths and “fixers” who struggle with emotional overwhelm

If you want more harmony, authenticity, and intimacy (without drama) in any relationship—romantic, family, or otherwise—this episode is for you.
