'sday

What do you think about these ideas? Should we accept our partners despite their flaws? Do you agree that we shouldn't threaten to leave even if we sometimes feel like we want to?

Stressed? A hug can help! And that's not just warm fuzzy wishing, it's science. Who can you hug today?

I think every couple needs to hear this. No to s*x doesn't mean no to you, or it doesn't have to mean that.

How are you growing and learning? When did you last take time to reflect on your own progress?
I love helping people see their growth! It's amazing to see a couple push through a hard conversation, knowing this is new for them. I will stop and say something like "you're doing great! This is hard and you're doing it! Could you have had that conversation when we first met?" Often the answer is no, they weren't having this type of conversation when we first met. And then we celebrate their growth together.
We humans are not always good observers of ourselves and need someone else to hold up a mirror and show us that we're growing. I love doing this for people!
Recently I had an amazing experience with a client. We cried together as we realized that a situation that at first was intimidating, anxiety provoking, and brought up fears about not belonging is now that person's favorite place to be.
Stop right now. Think about where you were 2 years ago, or 5, or 10. Where did you live? What was happening in your life? Think about all you've learned and lived through from then to now. How are you doing? Is current-you coping with life better than past-you? Take some time to celebrate. Share in the comments. Let me celebrate with you.
