Coming Out Late

Ep. #122: Life Is Relationship, Part 2


Listen Later

In part-two of this “Life Is Relationship” episode, Robin continues chatting with Chris about the revealing nature of relationships, and how they are the source of getting to know ourselves on deeper and deeper levels. THey also discuss!

In this episode, you will learn…

  • What happens when we make our relationships ‘conditional’?
  • Try BEING the love you seek in other people.
  • When we attach ourselves to the ‘outcomes’ of our desires, we end up disappointing ourselves. 
  • Grasping-for and clawing-at what we desire is looking outside ourselves.
  • When I am ‘ok with me’, I can show up-for and be ‘ok with you’.
  • What can I bring to this relationship? How can I show up as my best self?
  • Community, connections and support are vital to our growth.
  • You’re NOT ALONE - join your tribe in our Support Groups!
  • Everything is about slowing down!
  • Most importantly, don’t grasp for your first WLW relationship, instead, find a small circle of trusted people you can confide in and who can support you.
