#266: 7 Benefits of Taking it Slow in a Relationship


Listen Later

In this episode of the Black Girls Heal podcast, we dive into the seven benefits of taking it slow in a relationship — the power of a 'slow burn.' 


I discuss the reasons behind why rushing into relationships can be problematic, especially for love addicts, and share practical tips on how to pace relationships effectively. 


I also explore how going slow helps in truly understanding your partner, avoiding unhealthy attachments, and building a stronger foundation for your love story. 


This episode is perfect for hopeless romantics who want to avoid 'struggle love' and genuinely find a fulfilling relationship.

  • 00:17 Understanding love addiction and avoidance
  • 2:55 Seven benefits of going slow in relationships
