Ep. 382: Healthy Relationships start With Us with Emily Gough

Maybe it seems counter-intuitive, but the quality of our relationships got a lot better after the end of our marriages. Shitty circumstances helped us to look inwards in new ways, and because of the personal growth we went through then, we’re a lot stronger now. Emily Gough knows this first-hand too, after a nearly decade long relationship ended because of her partner’s infidelity. After that life-changing moment, Emily turned her attention to understanding and growing healthy relationships, and now coaches others to do the same. Relationships with others can be some of the best catalysts for personal growth, but it all starts with the relationship we have with ourselves.From nutrition to relationship coaching [1:43] Turning infidelity into lessons [4:19]Keeping the ability to trust [7:02]Inclusion + transparency around exes [10:04]The common emotional issues men face [14:48]Male emotional wounding [17:51]Connection amongst men [22:41]Why men ask for help [26:08]Emily’s book and who it’s for [31:47]Keeping romance alive while focusing on communication [35:11]Meeting new selves while in a relationship [38:46]How to know if someone is “the one” [45:45]The right time to call it quits [50:06]Let people be who they’re going to be [54:30]Connect with Emily on Instagram: @emilygoughcoachAnd visit her website: emilygoughcoaching.com Don’t forget to leave us a review and subscribe so you never have to miss an episode!
