368. How Do You Know If They're The One?

"How do I know if they're the one?" I get this question more often than I can tell you. But truthfully, I don't believe there's only one person in the world for us. And trying to fit that perfect someone into your preconceived love story presents a number of challenges and very, very often keeps people in bad relationships longer than they should be. Instead, we should all focus on how we can become the one, ourselves. And as we grow, there may even be more than one "one" that becomes our perfect fit at different times throughout our journey. This episode is all about rethinking the recipe of a great relationship - not as two people making a whole, but two whole people coming together to allow a beautiful relationship to unfold.  On that same topic, some exciting news: I've written a book (co-authored by Dr. Jade Teta, host of the Next Level Human podcast) all about how relationships are not here to complete us, but rather to grow us. You're going to love this one - stay tuned for release details!  In this podcast episode, we're talking about: How to know if they're the one Scarcity vs Abundance mindset Focusing on personal development vs finding true love Establishing strong values, standards and boundaries Why relationships require time apart How to have a better relationship Dating advice   Do you agree that there is no "one" person out there for us?
