Summary
Hey lady! It’s getting warm outside and you might be in the mood to mix and mingle. Before you welcome a handsome stranger into your life and begin the beautiful dance of getting to know them, we welcome you to some self-inquiry so that you can introduce your authentic self to your potential lover and not a mask of who you think you need to be.
Terri and Dr. Dom explore the key conversations you should be having with yourself to prepare for the blessing of love and companionship should you so choose to engage. If you listened to Loving Ourselves Through the 7 Dimensions of Wellness, you’ll remember Dr. Dom discussing the wellness wheel. This week, Dr. Dom and Terri apply that framework and apply it to the most important relationship of all – the one with yourself.
Have you checked-in about how you’re faring on the wellness wheel and are you having conversations about what you would like to improve or continue? Use today’s conversation as a guide that you can adapt to necessary conversations with your potential boo to keep you happy, healthy, and on track.
Quote of the Day:
“In order to create the relationship that you’re dreaming of you need to first start from the inside and work your way out.”
– Dr. Jeanine Staples
