In this week's mini-episode, I am going to talk about a subject that I have had to manage and deal with personally, fault-finding and criticism.

This is something that would overwhelm me in my dating life and relationships in the past and cause me to leave women because I couldn't get over small faults, and I didn't communicate them.

So in this episode, I talk to you about I work with men and how I worked on myself to stop and tune out o the fault finding.
