REPLAY: Is Understanding Behavior Excusing It?

THIS EPISODE IS A REPLAY

Understanding behavior helps us actually solve the problem, leads to compassion, and actually helps behavior to change, but first we must understand why we are so afraid that understanding behaviors means we are excusing "bad" behaviors.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The difference between understanding behavior and excusing behavior
• Why understanding behavior is important
• What are our fears about understanding behavior
• What leads to behavior change
• The importance of compassionate boundaries
