from Put Yourself First · host Kat Horrocks

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering, “Is this normal? Are we doing something wrong?” - this episode is going to feel like a giant exhale.We’ve all been sold a fantasy version of love: that with the right person, it should just work, that passion naturally fades, or that sacrificing your happiness is just part of the deal. In today’s episode, I’m calling BS on five of the most common lies we've been told about long-term relationships - and sharing the truth that will set you free.These lies are the reason so many women question themselves, their partners, or give up on something beautiful way too soon. And if you’re in a long-term relationship (or want to be one day) this is your reminder that it’s possible to feel more in love, more connected, and more turned on by your partnership than ever before - even after years together.We’re talking:💬 Why it shouldn’t feel effortless (but can feel easeful)🔥 How to reignite passion after the honeymoon phase⏰ The truth about “not having time for each other”🧠 Why butterflies ≠ healthy love💗 The difference between sacrifice and joy in a strong relationshipPlus, I share real-life stories and lessons from my own 15-year partnership.💌 Ready to deepen your own love life?My 1:1 Sex, Love & Relationship Coaching is officially open for the first ever case study round.
