Advice expert on This Morning today
On today’s This Morning, Sian Welby and Dermot O’Leary welcomed author and psychotherapist Phillipa Perry onto the show.
Phillipa sat down with the duo to listen to some viewers’ friendship issues and to give some much-needed advice.
The first caller explained that her friend’s constant negativity was starting to feel “draining” and making her want to spend less time with her.
However, Phillipa didn’t immediately sympathise. “So, there’s no way you can enjoy her negativity, is there?” she asked.
“Because sometimes, if we accept how someone is, rather than push back and fight back, then we’re using less energy,” she continued. She then advised that the caller “lean in” to her friend’s negativity a “bit more”. She explained that if she does this, she won’t find it so “irksome”.
