Episode 664: Lesson 5 on What’s Important for a Long-Term Relationship
I’m back with Lesson 5 in my Coming Home to Yourself series, sharing what I’ve found to be the seven essential foundations for building a healthy, lasting, and loving relationship. I also talk about how some of these foundations have helped shape my relationship with my new partner, Dr. Fox (not his real name…more on that later)! As I get ready to celebrate my 50th birthday in April, I’ve been reflecting on the biggest life lessons I’ve learned about love, partnership, and personal growth.
The health of our relationships has a huge impact on our overall well-being, which is why choosing the right partner, whether you decide to get married or not, is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make. A thriving relationship isn’t just about chemistry; it takes emotional maturity, communication, self-trust, resilience, and daily effort. In fact, love isn’t just about finding the right person, it’s about being the right person.
