EP21 How To Create Relationships That Serve You Apr 08, 2021

Show notes

When a relationship is challenging we tend to blame the difficulty on the other person. One person can change a relationship dynamic. You can decide who you want to be in a relationship and let the other person be who they are. In this episode I give you specific steps to create relationships that serve you.

Some of the concepts I talk about in this episode are:

Addiction is a symptom of the problem, not the problem
How to deconstruct and redefine a relationship that serves you
Relationships are just thoughts
