I have a super special episode for you this Valentine’s Day – and it wasn’t even planned that way, how serendipitous! 

Join me as I interview The Anti-Soulmate Love Coach Kari Lu Cowell about breaking up with someone you still love (including her story with the rom-com classic “meet cute”), how to know when it’s time to move on, and how to find a more equitable relationship with your next partner.

Kari and I dig into:

  • The power of physical attraction with someone you love, but that’s just not quite right for you
  • When your values just don’t match in your relationships
  • How a mismatch in values can cause more emotional labor in your relationships
  • How to find more balance and equity in your partnerships, especially with the social conditioning we all have
  • The power and relief that comes from realizing you can’t make other people change 
  • How honesty and co-creation is so important to all of our intimate relationships
  • The importance of cultivating loving relationships outside of our romantic partnerships

Kari’s favorite book: The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz
