Sometimes we avoid speaking up about what we really want with a person because we’re afraid we will “make waves” in the relationship.
We come from a place of fear and anxiety.
“What if me telling him I want something to be different makes him walk away altogether?” we think to ourselves. So we ignore the conversation and silently suffer.
But then nothing gets better. We just put off the conversation for another day while time keeps moving on.
If this is you, this episode is for you.
P.S. Early bird tickets for the second and final Virtual Retreat of the year (September 24-26) are only available until the end of the month.
These tickets are at a deep discount and have some really special extras thrown in.

0:00.0 | I was recently speaking to a woman who said that she'd been seeing a guy for the better |
0:25.6 | part of the year. |
0:26.7 | The frustration she was having is that they only saw each other every couple of weeks, |

0:51.2 | She came to me but she was so anxious about having the conversation and she said to me, |
0:59.2 | you know how it is Matthew, everything's all good until you start making waves. |
1:05.2 | I want everyone out there to notice the linguistic shuffle that happens there where we take |
1:14.1 | what are really our needs and turn them into making waves. |
1:19.9 | Because when that woman says making waves, she's really talking about her needs, her need |
1:25.1 | for some form of stability, her need to have some kind of regular connection and quality |
1:31.8 | time with the man that she's into and dare I say in love with. |
1:37.2 | What's up guys, before I continue the video and yes I realize I'm interrupting my own |
1:41.4 | video with this message. |
1:42.8 | I just wanted to let you know that the early bird tickets to my final virtual retreat |
1:46.8 | of this year are on sale now but only until the end of the month. |
1:50.8 | If you're thinking of coming now is the time because it's a big discount and there's |
1:53.7 | a couple of extras that we don't normally throw in with the ticket. |
