Habits for Your Happily Ever After

Fear Keeps Your Desire Silent: Say YES! Instead


Listen Later

What would change in your relationship if you gave yourself permission to say YES to what you desire?

As you listen today, ask yourself, “What does my sweetheart NOT KNOW about me? What am I holding back because I’m afraid? If I allowed myself to simply say YES and give myself permission to ask my sweetheart for my truest desires, what would my sweetheart know about me that they don’t know today?”

Today we revisit an episode from my archives. This story illustrates what happens when we get into our partner’s business rather than staying in the center of our own agency.

Our own YES.

You'll hear the very first episode I wrote for this podcast. Listening now, I’m so proud of all the work I’ve done to help Heather and Sean—the characters in today’s episode—show up differently.

  • In episode 30 we talked about the Clean Ask and why asking for EXACTLY what you want actually increases intimacy
  • We also talked about how much fear can pollute your relationship in episode 28
  • And, of course, I wrote a whole book: 6 Steps to Better Marriage Communication by Rebecca S. Mullen
