On Today’s Episode:
Often we talk about and look up things like: feeling disrespected, how to enforce boundaries, relationship red flags and how to know if your partner is toxic or narcissistic. On this channel, we are all about empowering you to recognize your value and worth. Developing the grit and strength you need to stand up for yourself is critical for the best version of you. So we go h*****n self-love, radical confidence and upholding boundaries.
But… what about when you’re the culprit in the relationship and if you’re honest, you could show up in your relationship a little (or a lot) better?
Our guest today is the queen of real talk and a no b.s. take on life and what it means to reach your fullest potential. Mel Robbins is a best selling author, motivational speaker, and now the host of The Mel Robbins Podcast!
In this episode we’re going from how to identify when you’re being disrespected to what to do when you’re the one disrespecting your partner and your relationship. It’s not always obvious to people, but relationships are hard work and Mel is so real about how she shows up in her own marriage of 26 years. It’s easy to see a bit of yourself in her vulnerabilities of not being the perfect partner
