Summary

Lady! Have you found yourself yearning for deeper more intimate relationships in your life? Or, are you in a fulfilling relationship and finding something is missing? Is that something…you? This week Terri and Dr. Dom sit and discuss all the small and subtle ways we can begin to lose ourselves in our relationships, both romantic and platonic, and how you can find your way back to a sustainable relationship with the most important person in your world – you!

Intimate partner relationships and close friendships add necessary dimension to life but sometimes they can turn into less-than-ideal situations due to enmeshment, co-dependency, and loss of identity. The good news is there are ways to find a sense of sovereignty in your togetherness. The dynamic hosts list out ways you can still maintain your independence while growing deeply with the people you care about. Remember lady, 2024 is about reaching new heights so tune in to learn how you can navigate your relationships more skillfully!

Quote of the Day:
“When you get so caught up in someone else that you stop being able to recognize yourself, it’s time to take a step back and reevaluate your priorities.”
