Episode 7: Communication

In this episode my boyfriend and I discuss definitions of a healthy relationship, how to know if someone is truly looking for something long-term, and whether a man can really change for a woman.

In this new episode we are discussing masculine and feminine energy; what these energies are and how they manifest in our characteristics, possessing both the masculine and feminine and understanding the more dominant energy, whether or not our energies can be changed or shifted at will, and how the presence, perception and portrayal of masculine and feminine energies impacts our way of life - from gender roles and other societal expectations to the basic laws of attraction.

In this episode we are discussing the nuances around first dates; what does an ideal first date look like, what are the best and worst places to choose for a first date, what is the mindset to have before going on one, how many people should you date at the same time, who should plan it or pay for it and whether it is actually a good idea to have sex on a first date.

In this episode we are discussing healthy and unhealthy ways to argue; the dos and don'ts when communicating in a dispute, finding common ground despite differences in approach, potentially positive outcomes from arguing, and conflict resolution in professional settings, as well as a whole lot more besides.

And so much more!
