đź’­ Is love about compromise, or should you be accepted exactly as you are? This episode dives into the fine line between healthy growth and losing yourself in a relationship.

 

Inside This Episode:

❤️ The nature of change. Relationships naturally shape us, but when does growth turn into self-sacrifice?

🎭 The pressure to change. Societal, cultural, and personal expectations can make you feel like you’re not “enough” as you are.

⚖️ Compromise vs. self-sacrifice. Adjusting habits is one thing—abandoning your core identity is another.

🤔 Are you changing for YOU or for them? Self-reflection is key. Is this growth or just people-pleasing?

đź’¬ Love and acceptance. Should true love embrace you as you are, or push you to evolve?

đźš§ The role of boundaries. How to maintain individuality while still growing as a couple.

⚠️ The danger of losing yourself. Signs you’re sacrificing too much and how to reclaim your identity.

🔄 Can a relationship work if one person won’t change? Knowing when to stay, when to push for growth, and when to walk away.
