​​
What's it like to be in your current relationship?
​
How do you show up with your partner?
How do you relate to communication, conflicts, and intimacy together?
How do you support and trust each other?
​
How do you know yourself, your own reactions and behaviors?
​​​
Throughout our lives, we all have had experiences that taught us certain beliefs about “who I am or can be”
and also "who I can't or won't be."
We have adapted our reactions accordingly.
These experiences shaped how we behave with others.
​​​
So when you buy into these beliefs,
without looking closely at them and their impact,
your life story is living you
and the dynamic of your intimate relationship.
​​​​
These unexamined experiences limit the couple who yearn
for more attunement, cooperation and love.
Is there something else you want?

How would you like to grow with your partner?
