Man Made Podcast ep. 48 Creating Harmonious Relationships

Welcome to the ManMade Podcast

This Podcast is with Shawn Helvey and Adam Thorne. Shawn is a licensed behavioral health counselor and Adam is a graduate student in behavioral health counseling. They’ve known each other for over 25 years and talk every week about the trials and tribulations of life.

 

Creating harmonious relationships is like being part of an orchestra where everyone is playing different instruments. Imagine trying to play the violin while someone else is vigorously banging the drums right next to you – it's chaotic, loud, and you can barely hear yourself think, let alone create a symphony! This cacophony is much like the discord we face in our daily interactions when harmony is missing. Just like in music, where harmony adds depth and beauty, in life, harmonious relationships can be the difference between feeling like you're constantly in a solo battle with a cacophony of cymbals and experiencing the mental tranquility of a well-composed melody. So, for the sake of our mental health, let's strive to be maestros of our own emotional orchestras, ensuring that each relationship we have adds a note of peace, rather than a blast of chaos, to the symphony of our lives. This way, we can all enjoy the concert of existence, maybe even with a standing ovation from our serotonin and dopamine receptors.
