  • Does the relationship you want still exist?
    Sep 6 2023

    Are you settling for less in your relationships? Too many of us do, without even realizing it. In this powerful conversation, we challenge this norm and get you to question—does the type of relationship you yearn for even exist? We dive deep into the importance of self-reflection and understanding that the love we seek must first exist within us. It's not the love that hurt us in the past, but the act of loving someone who didn't know how to reciprocate. We talk about how isolation, when balanced, can be beneficial and the significance of 'dating yourself.'

    In the quest for love, have you ever felt like you're losing yourself? We've got you covered. We navigate through personalizing relationships, emphasizing mutual respect, and understanding your partner's needs without surrendering your own. We debunk the misconception that sacrifice equates to loss. We reiterate that a loving relationship should elevate your happiness, not compromise it, and a man who genuinely loves you will never cause you harm. 

    Are you still carrying the weight of past relationships? It's time to drop that baggage! We stress the importance of living in the present with the right person and providing space when your partner needs it. We remind you that it's always 'us versus the problem.' We also explore the concept of 'expensive dates' and the importance of setting boundaries. We encourage open, honest communication, and respecting your partner's boundaries. Join us for an enlightening conversation on love, relationships, and the journey of self-discovery that awaits you!
