We've all got needs. We should first handle our needs by recognizing we have them! There's no shame in knowing what your needs are - especially when it relates to being in healthy relationships with others.

Today's podcast is inspired by the organization Relational Values relationalvalues.com. They empower people to experience and reproduce great relationships!

Knowing your relational needs helps you:

1. Communicate your needs.
2. Know how to communicate with others.
3. Know how to set healthy boundaries.
4. Know where you are "missing" someone in the area of needs.

According to Relational Values, there are ten relational needs:

Acceptance, Affection, Appreciation, Approval, Attention, Comfort, Encouragement, Respect, Security, Support.

To take the relational needs assessment that Chris and Christina talked about today, go to The Relational Values website.

You will then be prompted to an appropriate assessment tool. Once you've completed the assessment, you may want to do further digging into your top needs by yet another assessment that you will be prompted to take following the instructions provided.
