A podcast centered on each of us becoming our best relational self in order to create the partnerships we long for and possibly, eventually, improve the relational climate of our lives, our communities and our world
Give your partner a trip back home to their self and you have given enough. In this episode, I encourage us to take a look at how we have the possibility of “sending our partners on a trip” back to the place where they will always find the most sense of grounding, resource and agency, within their self. I also discuss how this might be the last thing we’re thinking of doing, and also the thing that best allows for what we want to see shift our relational dynamics.

An honest invitation to your best (relational) self in 2025, Part 2
Let’s be honest…
When we don’t know what we’re doing and we’re trying something new, it can be very helpful to just be honest and invite in all of the help and curiosity that we can access. In this not-so-mini episode, I model the transparency we often need to invite in new possibilities for change in our relationships and share an opportunity I have for a few folks to do more of this with me in 2025.
