# United Hearts Connection Project ## Posts - [Authentic Relating and Parenting: Navigating Big Emotions with Presence and Connection](https://unitedheartsproject.com/2024/12/14/authentic-relating-and-parenting-navigating-big-emotions-with-presence-and-connection/): Parenting is a journey filled with joy, laughter, and love. But it’s also a journey that challenges us to navigate big emotions, both our own and our children’s. As parents, we often want to “fix” things for our kids, to shield them from pain, and to make their challenges disappear. But what if the most powerful way to support them is through authentic connection? My Journey with Authentic Relating My youngest son is a ball of energy, a vibrant spirit who thrives on connection. When he’s not getting the attention he needs, his behavior reflects it. He acts up, seeks […] - [My Eating Disorder Tried to Take Over: How Authentic Connection Saved Me](https://unitedheartsproject.com/2024/12/12/my-eating-disorder-tried-to-take-over-how-authentic-connection-saved-me/): Every so often, sometimes more than others, I get attacked by the eating disorder that ruled my life for over 20 years.  With almost 17 years of recovery from the eating disorder, it can take me completely off guard when it wakes up.  I share a lot about my recovery from alcohol and drugs, but I don’t think I share enough about the eating disorder. Eating disorders are brutal silent killers, and they have their own unique way of not only staying alive but also sneaking up on you.  Unlike substances, that I can put down and never use again, […] - [My First Authentic Relating Circle: A Journey from Fear to Freedom](https://unitedheartsproject.com/2024/12/12/my-first-authentic-relating-circle-a-journey-from-fear-to-freedom/): I’ll never forget that Thursday night. I knew I needed to be “circled,” to be the focus of an Authentic Relating circle, but every cell in my body resisted. Despite my apprehension, I volunteered. “I don’t know what to do,” I confessed. “That’s okay,” the facilitator reassured me, “I’ll guide you through this.” Six of us sat in the virtual breakout room: the facilitator, myself, the man being circled, and three observers. Silence hung heavy in the air. I felt exposed, vulnerable, and an overwhelming urge to escape. Tears welled up as I shared my fear and the conflicting desire […] - [Beyond the Mask: How Vulnerability Can Transform Your Relationships](https://unitedheartsproject.com/2024/12/11/beyond-the-mask-how-vulnerability-can-transform-your-relationships/): Vulnerability. It’s a word that often evokes feelings of fear, discomfort, and even weakness. But what if vulnerability was actually the key to unlocking deeper, more meaningful connections in your life? Brené Brown, a renowned researcher on vulnerability, defines it as “uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure.” It’s about showing up as your true self, with all your imperfections and insecurities, and allowing yourself to be seen and known. Why Vulnerability Matters Vulnerability is often seen as a weakness, but it’s actually a superpower. When we allow ourselves to be vulnerable, we: Overcoming the Fear of Vulnerability It’s natural to fear […] - [Beyond the Playground: Why Adults Need More Play in Their Lives](https://unitedheartsproject.com/2024/12/11/beyond-the-playground-why-adults-need-more-play-in-their-lives/): Do you remember the carefree joy of childhood play? The days when time melted away as you were fully immersed in the moment, building forts, playing tag, or bringing your imagination to life? As adults, we often lose touch with that playful spirit. Responsibilities, deadlines, and societal expectations can weigh us down, making play seem like a distant memory. But what if play wasn’t just for kids? What if it was an essential ingredient for a happy, healthy, and fulfilling life, no matter your age? The Science of Play Research shows that play has numerous benefits for adults, including: Why […] - [How Authentic Connection Saved My Life (and Can Change Yours Too)](https://unitedheartsproject.com/2024/12/11/how-authentic-connection-saved-my-life-and-can-change-yours-too/): In 2012, I was lost. Deep in addiction, I felt isolated, misunderstood, and utterly alone. Then, something unexpected happened that changed the course of my life forever. A friend invited me to a “circle.” I had no idea what to expect, but I trusted her, so I went. Walking into that room, I felt a wave of apprehension. But as the circle unfolded, something shifted within me. For the first time, I felt truly seen, heard, and accepted for who I was, without judgment. It was a profound experience of authentic connection, unlike anything I had ever known.
