In this episode we are going to engage the question of how self-acceptance, and relationships help us grow into more loving people. When we "fall in love" all seems perfect in the world, and then reality sets in and we realize that people in our world are not perfect and neither are we. What's our response to that feeling? How can we grow through that pain? We'll explore those questions in this podcast.

We begin this episode with a simple question: "How you ever secretly felt happy at someone else's failure?" If you have, then perhaps you were working through envy. We often don't talk about envy in the same way we talk about anger or frustration and any journey towards wholeness has to begin with being honest about our own negative emotions. So let's get real, drop the pretense, and delve into this fascinating and timeless topic.
