Masculine and Feminine Energies in Relationships: What Beth and Rip Can Teach Us About Polarity

Episode 7: Relearn Relationships Podcast

Beth + Rip

Let’s talk about polarity.

When comparing masculine and feminine energy one is not superior to the other.

They are different.

It’s like letters and numbers.

Which is more important? Well, are you trying to write a novel or do math?

Using everyone’s favorite Yellowstone couple, let’s explore polarity!


Key Takeaways:

  • Understand Polarity in Relationships: Masculine and feminine energies each bring unique strengths to relationships. Balancing these energies enhances attraction and connection.

  • Avoid Trying to Change Your Partner’s Style: Pushing a partner to communicate like you may cause disconnection; respect each other's natural energy.

  • Embrace Emotional Awareness: Experience your emotions in your body to reduce reactivity and deepen understanding.

  • Masculine and Feminine Bond Differently: Women often bond through sharing, while men bond through solving. Recognizing this helps us appreciate each other's approaches.

  • Honoring Attraction through Polarity: Encouraging your partner to stay true to their energy (masculine or feminine) strengthens attraction and intimacy.


Disclaimer:

Beth and Rip don’t show us a healthy relationship. There is HIGH dysfunction on both sides. I’m using these characters as a fun example. :)

Go Deeper:

I'm obsessed with inner child work because it transformed my relationships.

Before understanding my behaviors, I lived in automatic mode, which looked like:

  • Shutting down in conflict when I got overwhelmed

  • Allowing myself to be treated like a doormat, fearing boundaries seemed "mean"

  • Manipulating to get my needs met rather than asking directly

  • Overthinking everything I wanted to say

Now, thanks to inner child work, I live in what I call Intentional Mode, which looks like:

  • Expressing emotions healthily

  • Setting boundaries that earn respect

  • Asking directly for what I need

  • Returning to my body when I get lost in my head

If you’re tired of letting emotions take over, overthinking, and losing your cool, let’s connect. Message me (or email lilly@lillyrachels.com) with the word "Blueprint" to learn more.
