A Case Study "Why Diddy, Diddy's?"
Hey Community, *Warning, I made this post prior to watching episode 3 & 4 of the Reckoning. Episodes 3 & 4 contains extremely strong sexual content, sexual violence and discussion of physical assault and is not necessary to complete the exercise in this post. I wanted to tap in before the weekend - I’m excited as this post is officially kicking off our very first deep-dive Case Study together and understanding principle 1 of my coaching program, "all behavior has a purpose" Here is a reminder. Two individuals become one couple. On this side requires selfishness, in a sense to dive-in, ask question, and ask for what else you need. There is too much on the line to stand on the side lines. My hopes and dreams is to help you along this journey. Like the Grinch, he did not know what he needed. A good coach helps the members of his team figure out what you need to identify and tackle to defeat the enemy, what I call the "troubled dance of connection" in your intimate relationship. That is the sole purpose of this community. As your coach, I will be exposing this community to strategies I have successfully used a dozens of times to help my guys take back and reclaim how they wanted to show up in their relationship. Diddy is The Canvas Now, let’s get real for a second. I know when you saw Diddy's name you probably felt that uncomfortable energy in your body. Please stick with me, I am going somewhere. Here is the thing, yes we are using Diddy—however, if you are going to benefit from this Case Study, I need you to put your personal feelings aside or you are going to miss the perspective. Caveat: When discussing the behaviors tied to the troubled dance or cycle of some of these men, I am in no way excusing, justifying, or attempting to explain away any behavior; it’s about learning attempting to unpack the origin of their troubled dance or cycle. As I take you into this documentary “The Reckoning” episodes1 & 2. (rated MA—contains strong sexual assault, violence, explicit language, so take care if these themes are triggering), we’re simply observing and adding language to how a public figure’s patterns can teach you about the dynamics of his“troubled dance," its impact on intimate partners, meaningful others and criminal behavior.
