Looking For My Dream Partner

Looking For My Dream Partner

EPISODE 4 Like every Disney princess, we all secretly believe in the notion that a knight in shining armor will show up and save us. We “manifest” our prince charming and our McDreamy and have been doodling our dream lives with this mysterious hero for decades. How often do you stop and think, oh my dream partner looks like this? This is what I want them to look like, or behave or these are the traits I need in my partner? However, we don’t always wake up from our dreams and find the storyline in reality now do we? In today's episode with our guests JK Hunter and Dominique Doyle, we dive into sculpting or rather identifying what your perfect man or woman could be like. In this episode, we got hot and heavy and dove into: a. What does your McSteamy look like? Do you have a complete idea of what you want your partner to look like or be like? b. What happens when your ideal partner lacks something that you find in someone else? How do we navigate this? c. Is it possible to have more than one ideal partner? Can we change our preferences? d. Why is it necessary to put yourself out there in order to find someone and how do you go about doing this? e. The importance of communicating your desires to your partner and finding a balance between what they have to offer and what you want. f. Manifesting and Vision Boards - speaking your desired partner and relationship to life. Sometimes the ideal relationship we have in mind might look a lot different from what the universe sends our way. We hope this conversation has you thinking about the type of love you want to experience and the partner that fits into your dreams. Remember, flexibility in your vision allows you room to accept and receive more. Remember to like, subscribe, leave a comment and share this episode to keep the conversation going.

Just Healing

EPISODE 3 Through the varying seasons of our lives, we experience a collection of pain and heartbreak. Be from our parents and family, our friends and even our partners or lovers. We can easily be guided when we experience death, to go through the motions and the five stages of grief, but we hardly ever talk about the same process when dealing with heartbreak. In today's episode, we explore and shine the light on the healing process (from relationships, love, and heartbreak) and also dive into the idea of “settling for love”. Our guests today Erika..and Tiffany guide us through finding our healing and returning to ourselves. In this episode we explored and discussed: a. Why is it important and necessary to heal before we move on or enter into a new relationship? b. How do you put in the work and begin your healing journey? c. The importance of therapy and finding/having support structure when walking through your healing journey. d. Why do we need to have more conversations to remove the stigma and change the narrative around needing help and healing? e. The importance of continuous healing within your relationships, with your partner or individually. a. Why do we settle? Is it because we don’t think we can get the love we deserve or we are tired of looking and trying? b. The importance of understanding your own worth in order to receive the love you desire. c. Learning to not be driven by loneliness to accept less than you deserve. “…time doesn’t heal all wounds, doing the work heals all wounds. We have wounds from parents that we have to do the work and find a safe space to talk about it. We have to take healing into our own hands” - Tiffany Remember to like, subscribe, leave a comment and share this episode to keep the conversation going.

The Side Piece

EPISODE 2 Side Piece: Someone that you talk to, to your convenience while you are in a relationship. No strings attached, no stress, no expectations, no bullshit - Urban Dictionary. There is no such thing as a taboo topic, but today's episode might just fit into the narrative. Have you ever been a side piece? How do you feel about your partner having a side piece? Have you ever had one? In today's episode with our guests Samiyyah Dixon and Stannis Smith, we come for the little pleasure secrets you have kept hidden. We exchange stories and anecdotes of the realities that come with being the other woman or man. In this episode we discussed and explored: a. Why do people have side-pieces? Is it the desire to fill a gap missing in their primary relationships or is it just simply a case of greed? b. How does being a side piece impact the way we view ourselves and the guilt attached to the concept due to societal expectations? c. Could you ever be comfortable with being number 2? Or are you a badass who deserves the number 1 spot? d. The importance of having an honest conversation about what you want from a relationship or experience with someone. e. How the age of social media and dating apps has made it easier to fulfill our secret desires f. How do we normalize and remove the shame attached to relationships and how we explore our needs? We hope the conversations and lessons in some way help you to better navigate the relationships you allow yourself to be in. And hey, if you are a side piece or have a side piece I hope the “fun” you are having is safe, mutual, and respectful.

Marriage Might Not Be For Me.

Our first episode today unpacks a simple yet complicated question? Are you single or are you taken? Is it by choice or perhaps circumstances? As we get older, the desire for companionship and being with someone may often get a little stronger, however, finding someone to create that meaningful relationship with may not be easy, or rather, the way our lives are set up may not leave enough room for us to completely explore this. Our guests today Michael Keith and Ebony Harris help us navigate what being single is and what it isn't. What it could be and what it shouldn’t be. During the first part of the episode we discuss: The difference between being single by choice vs being single due to circumstances The importance of transparency and communicating our needs and wants for relationships that we intend or want to cultivate. The dynamics between how men and women explore or see relationships Why it is important to be present in the moment and focus on the now vs being with someone for an end goal The expectations we have for our potential partners vs reality In the second part of the episode we explore our thoughts on the institution of marriage: Long term commitment vs Marriage How do we see marriage - is it antiquated and needs to evolve and does it hold the same purpose, integrity, and standard or not? How societal expectations and norms impact the way women behave once a marriage is on the table Balancing the dynamics between our work, family, and love lives. We hope this conversation gives you a fresh take on relationships and how to better navigate being single and content.
