Welcome to Dr Sarah: Relationship Success Lab, where high achievers, executives, and entrepreneurs explore relationship fitness, healing from relationship trauma, and creating secure, trusting, and loving partnerships. Designed for those navigating high-stakes careers and relationships, we dive into trauma-informed coaching, relationship wellbeing, and practical strategies to recover from trauma bonding and build meaningful connections. Save your marriage, start building secure relationships and optimizing your relationship wellbeing.

In the discussion about high achievers and their challenges in relationships, Sarah and Matt highlight the common issue of being overly focused on goals and rationality, neglecting emotional connection. They emphasize that success in relationships relies heavily on emotional and mental connection, which accounts for 80% of relationship longevity. Sarah stresses the importance of prioritizing meaningful values over achieving specific goals in relationships. Matt introduces a practical exercise involving a "values dartboard" to align actions with values. They underscore the need for intentional presence and effort in fostering emotional connection, even when lacking emotional intelligence. The conversation emphasizes the power of showing up for one another and discusses research showing that attunement in relationships leads to brainwave patterns akin to meditative states. This highlights the profound impact of emotional connection on overall well-being. They caution against the endless pursuit of tasks and goals, advocating for prioritizing and committing to nurturing relationships. Ultimately, they assert that genuine commitment, effort, and willingness to understand and support one another are crucial for relationship success, fostering a deeper emotional bond and overall fulfillment.
