I Promise to Never Know You…

By |2023-08-25T06:06:50+00:00September 8th, 2022|

 I heard a quote once that was so unusual it gave me an entirely new perspective on relationships. A man said to his partner when renewing his vows... “I promise to never know you.” At first, I thought, “What?

But then I thought about it and it hit me. It actually goes much deeper [...]

If you’ve been in a relationship for a while, sometimes what you come up against is a sense of staleness or a lack of newness in the relationship.

Has there ever been a time in your relationships where you said or did something that wasn’t in alignment with your integrity? The words you spoke to your partner that didn’t match with what you were really feeling, or the forced smile you gave while deep inside your stomach was in knots… If you have, then you know the pain of feeling like you're living a lie — and you’re tired of it. You might feel [...]

What I’ve seen happen again and again is people succumbing to a common myth. Perhaps you’ve heard of it. It’s the myth of compromise. It’s the idea that every love relationship requires each partner to make compromises for the sake of the relationship. At first glance, this seems like a [...]

In my last blog post, “Your Words Create Your Reality - Part 1”,  I spoke about a client who said, “I’m just anxious in relationships”. Through some simple inquiry and deconstruction of that statement, I illustrated how by shifting the language we use, we can create a new way of experiencing ourselves in relationship and release ourselves from our own self-created limitations.

By |2023-08-23T09:32:16+00:00October 23rd, 2020|

Recently, I was working with a client who was experiencing some anxiety in a new relationship and they said,  “I’m just an anxious person in a relationship.”  That statement almost slipped by me.  I mean, it very well could be true from their perspective, couldn’t it? However, as a coach, part of my role working with clients is to pay close attention to the language they use to create their experience.   Because, oftentimes, how you [...]

If I ask you, “how do you build a relationship that’s healthy and deeply intimate?” what would you answer? You might say that you need to do things like have romantic dinners and deep conversations, spend lots of quality time together getting to know each other’s inner workings.
