Let’s love our gentleman. We don’t want to neglect them.  There are good ones and highly evolved ones.  When we learn to keep our heart open and continue to try in our personal love, we reap amazing benefits.  Check out our new episode where we dive deep into these topics! You can find me and @healthygirlholisticlifestyle on the podcast every Wednesday at 8am CST! The link is in my bio!  www.anchor.fm/thriving-in-chaos I mean come on... What are the current statistics of Divorce? 50% for the first marriage... 67% for the second,  and 73% third... YIKES! They aren’t good!! We must discern that our partner is a good mate and then work to make it a success.  We have a pretty hard-wired belief system engrained in us as children…. At 23, I felt intense pressure to get married and fit in.  I felt like I had to do what was expected of me... -Dressed up as a bride -Dreamt about the wedding   -My Goal was to find a husband, first and foremost NOT…. The right person, the right time, the right connection. THEN the midlife crisis really is a crying out for wanting to feel alive again.  You can’t fight for something that doesn’t exist. If something is harming our spirit, we must let it go. Why are Millennials not marrying? FEAR. Their spiritual standpoint. Don’t need a piece of paper. Freedom. They are there because they choose to be there not because they have to.  They have seen their parents struggle: lie, cheat, and disrespect each other.  The staying together for the children epidemic (ages 30-50) Because it is only a piece of paper. Getting a divorce was the best decision I ever made … Marrying the wrong person doesn’t make them a bad person. We all deserve to be happy. We are taught we are sinners if we leave so we stay. What does a happy marriage look like?  Marriage is not an obligation but a genuine connection.  Your partner makes you the best version of you you can be.  They bring out the best in you and you do the same for them.
