Free Love Advice: Get Your Needs Met Dec 24, 2019

Show notes

What does it mean to have your needs met? Can you get clear on what those needs are, and then find language to communicate those needs in a way that is easy for people to meet? Can you dumb your needs down a bit so that folks can succeed at meeting them? That's what we're exploring today. Make your needs easy to meet.

What happens when the values you hold dear don't line up with those of your partner? How do you leave a loving relationship, knowing that you deserve more? How do you both honor your relationship, and celebrate it, while honoring yourself and leave it?

Today, we explore those answers.

Relationships Take Work with Brandon G. Alexander Dec 10, 2019

Show notes

Relationships take work. I'm wary of anyone who claims otherwise. Some of that work happens in a relationship, and some happens before the relationship even gets off the ground.

Brandon G. Alexander is the founder of New Age gents, and he's showing men how to do it differently. We examine the power of being a whole being even when we're single, the importance of dating with intention, and how our personal development can affect our future relationships.

What you'll learn (or why you should care):

• The importance of letting people off the hook

• How showing up whole can reduce your anxiety in early-stage dating

• The power of doing the work

Making Love Last with Dr. Robert Sternberg Nov 12, 2019

Show notes

Your relationship needs intimacy, passion, and commitment if you want it to stand the test of time. Not only that, you need enough of these three qualities to help you get through the rough or dull parts. And lastly, you need realistic expectations of what a relationship can realistically provide.

Dr. Robert Sternberg is a professor of Human Development at Cornell University, the author of The New Psychology of love, and has been writing on the subject of love for over 30 years.

What you'll learn (or why you should care):

• The triangular theory of love (intimacy, passion, and commitment)

• The importance of defining what loves means to you

• How putting the other first can lead to long term relationship satisfaction
