Things I Know About Love & Relationships...So Far

This week on Off Duty, I'm sharing some of the things I've learned about love and relationships... so far.Not because I have all the answers, but because relationships have a way of teaching us things about ourselves that almost nothing else can.In this episode, I'm reflecting on love, attraction, chemistry, compatibility, personal growth and what makes a relationship meaningful. From the role of self-awareness to why the relationship we have with ourselves influences every other relationship, this is a thoughtful conversation on the lessons that have stayed with me over the years.In this episode, I discuss:• Why chemistry and compatibility both matter• The difference between understanding someone and abandoning your own desires• How the relationship you have with yourself influences every other relationship• Why attraction is about more than appearance• The role of masculine and feminine polarity in attraction• Why healthy relationships require two people taking responsibility for themselves• What I've observed about growth within relationships• Why the best relationships bring out the best version of you• Why being in love with your life matters just as much as being in love with your partnerWhether you're single, dating, in a relationship or simply reflecting on your own experiences, I hope this episode offers a few perspectives that resonate.As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Send me a message on Instagram and let me know what relationship lesson you would add to the list.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave a review and share it with someone who might enjoy the conversation.Find more on Rach at: IG: http://instagram.com/racheljay__TikTok: http://tiktok.com/@theracheljayWebsite: http://racheljay.coEat Beautiful: http://eatbeautiful.co
