Listen Later

Welcome back! Today we are joined by Jen Lauren, host of Dare to Self Care podcast, chatting all about (you guessed it) self care and how to maintain a sense of self while in a long term relationship. 

What else we talk about: 

  • how Jen started her YouTube channel and podcast
  • how she found a lifestyle that would give her multiple streams of income and allow her to pursue her passions
  • how she met her boyfriend in high school (and is still with him 10 years later)
  • how jealousy impacted her relationship in college
  • her advice for healthy communication in a long term relationship
  • how a relationship can survive (& flourish) through personal development and change
  • how they keep the spark alive
  • why you shouldn’t lie in therapy
  • moving in with your SO
  • the pressure to not be “that girl” when you have a partner and your friends are single 

    • & more!
