Jillian Turecki on Nine Hard Truths About Love That Will Change Your Life


Listen Later

This week on the show, we’re going to be talking about some of our most important relationships — our romantic relationships and our platonic relationships. Today on the show we have the relationship expert herself, Jillian Turecki, to talk about her new book It Begins with You: The 9 Hard Truths About Love That Will Change Your Life, which comes out January 14. As Jillian puts it in the book, no matter where your love life is at today, “you hold the key to the change you want to see in your love life”; she also writes that “you’re not broken or doomed to be alone forever or forever unhappy in your love life.” It Begins with You, Jillian writes, “is about creating change” and, as the title suggests, it all starts with us, as, in her words, the “relationship we have with ourselves is the most important relationship we’ll ever have.” In today’s episode we go through each of the nine truths — parking on some more intently than others — and how we all have work to do in our romantic lives, as, in Jillian’s words, “we all have patterns that do not serve our romantic lives, and we’re all working on something.” Jillian talks about the myth of “the one”; how when we grow, the kind of people we are attracted to evolves, too, which is why it’s so important to do the work on ourselves; what it actually means to love yourself and if you have to fully love yourself to attract the right partner; and so much more. We are all capable of being in a relationship that we deserve, and Jillian — who is a beloved relationship coach, teacher, and host of the top relationship podcast “Jillian on Love” — will help us get there. Let me tell you — I wish I’d read Jillian’s book a decade ago. I probably could have skipped a lot of relationships that didn’t serve me. In addition to her hit podcast, Jillian also has a huge social media community and a newsletter, “Love Weekly,” which reaches millions of people who are looking for help in this area of their lives. Through her work with Jillian Turecki Coaching, Jillian works with individuals and couples through transformative workshops, courses, and one-on-one coaching sessions, and she has done this work for over 20 years. I can’t wait for you to hear from her.
