Send us Fan MailWhat does “right relationship” actually look like over nearly 50 years of partnership?This week on The UpLevel Podcast, join us for a deeply human and unexpectedly playful conversation as we sit down with Master Certified Coaches Cynthia and David Darst, senior faculty with the Co-Active Training Institute and CRR Global and life partners, to explore how right relationship is more than just a destination… it’s a living, evolving practice.Cynthia also shares powerful insights from her book, Meet Your Inside Team, and explains how doing your internal work prevents you from projecting your fears and stories onto the people you love.This episode is full of laughter, lived wisdom, humility, and the kind of insight that only comes from decades of choosing each other again and again.In this episode, we’ll explore:Why right relationship doesn’t mean harmonyThe importance of learning how to “fight clean”The power of taking your own side without attacking the otherWhat it means to practice not knowing your partnerHow to recover when you miss each otherDesigning co-leadership consciouslyStaying in relationship even through the reality of deathAnd why you’re never holding the relationship aloneAbout Team Darst:Cynthia Loy Darst, MCC, and David Darst, MCC, are Team Darst.With more than 50 years of combined coaching experience, Cynthia and David have traveled the world working with teams and training others in the skills that elevate coaching, leadership, and everyday life.Both are senior faculty members with The Co-Active Training Institute (CTI) and with CRR Global (formerly The Center for Right Relationship).Cynthia’s book, Meet Your Inside Team, has significantly influenced how they each work with individuals. The concepts they teach through both CTI and CRR are deeply integrated into their client work—as well as into their own partnership.www.linkedin.com/in/cynthia-loy-darst-teamdarst/www.linkedin.com/in/david-darst-45149a309🎉 The UpLevel Podcast was listed as one of the Top 10 Best Coaching Culture Podcasts!!! https://podcasts.feedspot.com/coaching_culture_podcasts🎉 It was also ranked #4 among the top 50 Best Workplace Mental Health Podcasts! https://podcast.feedspot.com/workplace_mental_health_podcastswww.uplevelproductions.comhttps://www.instagram.com/uplevelproductions/https://www.linkedin.com/company/uplevelproductionscompanyhttps://www.facebook.com/uplevelproductionscompany
