You’ll Hear About:

Treating Relationship Issues Like Physical Issues:
When we tackle relationship problems head-on, just like we would with any physical issue, we give ourselves a chance to help our relationships get better in ways we might not have thought possible. By digging deep and addressing the root causes, we can build stronger, healthier connections.

Practicing Self-Awareness:
It's so important to be tuning into our thoughts, feelings, and actions when navigating the ups and downs of relationships, becuase knowing what you're actually experiencing tells you what you need. It's all about gaining clarity on what we truly need to grow.

Perspective and Assumptions:
See how your perspectives and assumptions are shaping your relationship experiences. By opening up dialogue and involving the other person more, we can clear up misunderstandings and strengthen our bonds.

Noticing Blind Spots:
Recognizing our own blind spots is key to personal growth and improving our relationships. It's about embracing that change is normal, and opens us up to being ourselves more authentically and exploring new possibilities together.

3 Surprising Things That Hurt Relationships:
1. Neglecting Self-Care:
Not taking care of your emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being puts you in a spot to rely on the other person for things they can't help you with. Taking responsibility to step in and nurture yourself actually builds healthier interactions and relationships.
2. Assumptions:
Challenge those conclusions your brain is jumping to and see the bigger picture by asking more questions when you feel you already know, and making room for more open and interactive discussions with the other person.
3. Seeing Differences as Threats:
Instead of seeing another way of doing or thinking as a threat to you, embrace how much stronger your relationships can be when you invite the other person's perspectives and prioritize better understanding in your relationships.
