Are you too hard on yourself in your relationships? Since the podcast launched, we have always heard about love & relationships from the perspective of women. Now, we have the opportunity to hear from one of my favorite love & relationship experts, @createthelove himself, Mr. Mark Groves! Mark Groves is a human connection expert and founder of Create The Love. In this episode, Mark will share with us how to be a better partner in handling relationships – from changing the non-negotiables effectively to honoring our boundaries. He will also dive deep into how our childhood affects our behavior towards relationships and so many more eye-opening tools to thrive in them:

• Mark’s Story [3:40]
