What Fulfills You?

#246: On this solo episode, Emily shares her thoughts and insights on how to actually find a partner that aligns with you (values, personal interests, life vision, etc.) and why the current "modern dating" dynamic makes it harder for most of us.

• Why you should write down examples of men you admire and traits that they have that you would want in a partner
• How to actually be mindful in your dating process and not waste time with the wrong people
• What it means to enjoy your own company and how you can work towards this
• Becoming secure in yourself and how this contributes to better success in relationships

Determined to finally give women access to a proper shave that lays the foundation for healthy, glowing skin, hanni was born. At its core, hanni believes that shaving is the first step to great skin and aims to help empower women to make time to take care of themselves. Leslie lives between the US and Buenos Aires with her husband, 3 kids, and dog George.

#237: Have you run into moments in your past where you remember the feeling of "being uncomfortable", but also pushing through that lack of comfort and seeing the positive results in the end?

This actually probably happens to many of us on a daily and weekly basis - from snoozing the alarm to waking up early, going to do a workout especially when you do not feel like it, having the much needed "uncomfortable" conversations with friends, a partner, or family, and etc.

It's always when we stay in the uncomfortable times, just a hair longer, that we see the positive effects and reality of personal growth and where it comes from.
