Inside this episode I debunk the myths around “settling”!
I go deep on:
- Why I don’t believe in the traditional idea of “soul mates”
- Learning how to prioritize what truly matters in a relationship (instead of arbitrary items on a checklist that don’t matter)
- Learning to accept emotional availability when you’ve experienced insecurely attached relationship dynamics in the past
