We all know communication is key in relationships, particularly when we're facing conflict. But is there a key to communication? Coach Jaclyn Lanae and relationship counselor Terry Irvine discuss the ways that curiosity in communication can help to move us through the challenges romantic partnerships can bring to heal ourselves and our relationships.

More dates does not necessarily equal a higher probability of creating a great connection. Nor a great relationship. Coach Ellyn and I discuss why we get burned out in dating, and how we can create great relationships by being more authentic. More intentional.

How breaking the conventional "rules" in relationships can actually help us to have healthier, happier, relationships. Understanding why we believe relationships need to be a certain way to be successful. Creating better relationships by being more authentic versions of ourselves IN them.

In this episode we discuss how loving and accepting ourselves for who and how we are in the world can help us to create or enhance romantic relationships. From body image issues to working through the idea that empowered people are "too independent" for relationships, we get into a variety of topics, exploring how empowering ourselves to love who we are more deeply can improve our relationships and our lives.

In this episode we hear the story of a woman that is holding onto a relationship that isn't working and explore WHY. We also talk about how she could potentially release that pattern, and IF she should release that pattern. Additionally, we discuss two women's quest for a relationship and explore ideas around how they can adjust their energies and perspectives in relationships to manifest genuinely wonderful partners.

This is a SHORTIE. I inadvertently had to take a brief hiatus from the Podcast, and I just want to catch everybody up on why... and talk about the new stuff coming!

I believe that self love can change EVERYTHING. It can (and will) change you, your life, your circumstances, your relationships... but I believe it can also change the world. People who deeply love themselves don't need money and power over others to show their worth to the world. They don't need to demean or control others in order to feel like they're "right". I learned so much about self love as I healed through some BIG traumas. And I want to share it with the world. This is that story.

We think we know who we are. And we do. But there are so many layers to the reality of who we are that we might not be aware of. Discover new depths of your understanding of yourself by un-labeling yourself.

Can there be connection with out understanding? What happens when we feel like the people that hold the most intimate places in our lives don't really understand us? What can we do when we feel like they just can't LOVE us right?

Nobody likes to be wrong. But there's a tremendous power in owning it when we are. And all kinds of ways we can empower ourselves in BEING wrong - particularly in relationships.
