What does it mean to have courage to you? We hear stories in the media and from friends and family about people who have done courageous things all the time.

Whether it's a fire fighter entering a burning building to rescue someone trapped on the inside or a teenager that stands up to the high school bully to protect another classmate.. courage comes in many forms.

But, how does courage play a part in our relationship with our partner? Does it take courage to have a genuine truly authentic relationship?

April 5th is Go For Broke Day, so I focused on what that means in a relationship. Going for broke, or going "all-in" means taking a risk and giving all of yourself emotionally to your partner.

We all have things that we aren't too fond of about ourselves, and we may worry about being accepted by our partners. But when we are not being authentic with ourselves and with our partner can we truly have a fulfilling relationship?

And for those of us who take the risk and invest "all-in" in our relationship is that worthy of being considered courageous? I think it is.

In today's video I talk about having courage in a relationship and why it's so important to go "all in" or go for broke with your partner. The reward is well worth the risk when you are with the right person.
