What does it mean to have your needs met? Can you get clear on what those needs are, and then find language to communicate those needs in a way that is easy for people to meet? Can you dumb your needs down a bit so that folks can succeed at meeting them? That's what we're exploring today. Make your needs easy to meet. 
What happens when the values you hold dear don't line up with those of your partner? How do you leave a loving relationship, knowing that you deserve more? How do you both honor your relationship, and celebrate it, while honoring yourself and leave it?
Today, we explore those answers.
