Imagine attempting to bake a cake without its core ingredients? Well, that’s what so many of us attempt to do with dating and progressing into a relationship. We have criteria, lists and ‘types’ that ignore or deprioritise what we truly need, desire and deserve. As a result, we often find ourselves in unfulfilling or even unhealthy relationships. Of course, we weren’t taught this stuff growing up and the likes of dating apps reinforce the very patterns we need to break out of. In this illuminating class, I share what you need to embody and seek in partners if you want to be in a genuinely loving, lasting relationship.
What I cover:
The 5 core components of mutually fulfilling loving, healthy relationships.
Some of the classic assumptions we make about dating and the early stages of a relationship that inadvertently cause us to ‘bake’ our relationships without some or any of the core components.
The core ingredients that unhealthy, unfulfilling and incompatible relationships share.
What intimacy is, why it comes from all of the components, and how we inadvertently sabotage it through the ways we approach dating and relationships.
How to know if your relationship has the core components.
Readying for Love is episode 1 of 6 of my
Relationship Fundamentals series. Includes a replay of the Q&A session.
