What’s The Episode About:

Have you ever felt like no matter what you do, it's NEVER enough to make your partner happy?

Or you might be pleasing them at your own expense, and at some point you wonder “what about me?”

If this is your reality, and you feel resentment bubbling up…let me be the one to tell you: NO, you're not crazy!!

There’s a predictable pattern that CAUSES resentment! Until you see it, resentment can keep sneaking into your relationship, even when people have the best intentions.

In a long-term relationship… I KNOW you’ve felt the INFURIATING feeling of sacrificing just to please someone else only to wind up in a situation where they are still unhappy!

Unlike everything you’ve been taught… PLEASING others in relationship does NOT fix things and it usually BACKFIRES!

This is a predictable pattern with a predictable outcome. 

In this episode, I’m going to REVEAL the predictable pattern that you UNKNOWINGLY keep falling into!

There is a way to BUILD UP your relationship, without pleasing, without compromise and without settling for things you aren’t happy with! Let’s dive in!

Key Points Discussed:

The predictable pattern loop of pleasing (00:00)

In a long-term relationship and STILL pleasing? Here’s what to do instead (03:26)

A real-life example of this strategy applied: student’s example (09:25)

Final words (14:58)
