Episode Summary: 

Where are you requiring that people act in certain ways so that you can feel happy and secure about your relationship? Join me on today’s episode as I dig into how to build healthier, happier connections. 


Show Notes:

Where are you requiring that people act in certain ways so that you can feel happy and secure about your relationship? Most of us have an explicit list or manual for our friends, partners, parents, or really anyone that we interact with of how they're supposed to act. But, when you place your happiness in someone else’s hands, you’re taking a huge emotional gamble. 


On today’s episode, I explore how to be happier in your relationships. I challenge you to ask what you can do, think, and believe to feel worthy and valuable in your own right instead of searching for it in someone else. There’s nothing wrong with being delighted by someone’s actions, but when you create expectations and extract meaning when they’re unmet, it sparks a toxic cycle in your relationships. 


I share tangible ways to shift that story and start to love yourself more. The self-love movement can feel like a cliché at times, but it’s the number one thing that will help you cultivate more happiness in your relationships. Join me on today’s episode as I dig into how to build healthier, happier connections.
