Romantic relationships are fraught with challenging dynamics to deal with ... đź‘€ or not. Even deciding you're ready to date is challenging, well it was for me at least. The question is, if you're not dealing with what is, if you can't call a thing a thing, and if you're not willing to work through the "hard" stuff with your person, then what's the point of partnership? I have two people joining me today who aren't afraid of relational work and their lives are a testament to that fact.Â
Although I've interviewed Ryan and Nikki separately, I'm so excited for you to join us for this vulnerable conversation. I'm letting you all in a bit more to where I'm at in my own pursuit of a romantic relationship while I pick the brains of two people I love an incredible amount. I left this conversation feeling confident about myself and unbothered by my singleness. I believe you will too if you're in a similar boat, but maybe not for the reasons you think. When we work on ourselves and are willing to genuinely ask and answer the hard questions we're sometimes fearful to, we realize our very willingness to engage the difficult parts of ourselves, makes us even more equipped to meet and healthily bring someone into our life.Â
You've got this. WE'VE got this. ✊🏼
