Why Kendra lived at a Buddhist Monastery for a period of time and how it eventually led her to leave the monastery to lead relational dynamics with her now ex husband Two of her teachers: Sofia Diaz and David Deida Authentic relating: the practice of hiding nothing (not to be confused with share everything) How making assumptions about what people can and cannot handle from you can lead you to limiting yourself (all from just an assumption, too!)-- this is why we often show our full spectrum of emotions to some people, but not all people. How Kendra has learned what works for her when she feels jealous in her relationship (and how she communicates it with her partner) Letting your emotions flare How to be generous and patient while you learn to let your man lead (sometimes badly) How to not be defensive when your partner is doing his best to be honest and vulnerable Let {Him} Lead You Badly (video) Going three layers deeper so you move past the surface level complaint and get to the real desire An example of how we often sabotage our partner from taking the role of leader My fear of going deep into this woo-woo relationship realm and how it may disconnect me from the "mainstream" men I have available to date (and what Kendra has to say about that) The Myth of Being Met in Relationship You can be exactly who you are whether you are in a relationship or not: you never have to change your ways or your behavior (unless you decide to) How the masculine creates the structure and the feminine is the energy that fills it Why using a word like "energy" might feel better than a word like surrender Must-read book: The Art of Asking by Amanda Palmer Diptyque Rose Candles Connect with Kendra: Website Facebook Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
