    Sep 25 2025

    What shaped the way you see relationships? Was it your family, your past, or even the fairytales and media you grew up with?

    ✔️ The powerful influence of media and fairytales on our expectations of love
    ✔️ How to define deal breakers—and why settling can be so damaging
    ✔️ The importance of self-work in creating healthy partnerships
    ✔️ Crossing the bridge from old patterns to healthy, thriving relationships

    If you’ve ever questioned your beliefs about love or wondered why relationships feel so challenging, this conversation will give you the clarity, compassion, and encouragement you need to build the kind of love you truly deserve.

  • Aligned Intentions : The Key to Healthy, Lasting Relationships
    Sep 12 2025

    Love doesn’t last by accident—it lasts by intention. 💙
    In this episode of the Why Is This So Challenging Podcast, we break down why setting clear intentions in dating, relationships, and marriage is the foundation for lasting love.

    When two people align on their intentions—communicating openly, acting with purpose, and staying true to the vision they set together—they create a relationship that is built to thrive. But when intentions are unclear or out of alignment, couples often face unnecessary conflict, confusion, and heartbreak.

    We’re here to help you shift from confusion to clarity. Whether you’re dating, in a serious relationship, or preparing for marriage, this conversation will give you tools and encouragement to:
    ✔️ Set clear intentions together
    ✔️ Communicate your goals with honesty and love
    ✔️ Build trust and alignment as a couple
    ✔️ Create a healthy, harmonious foundation for the future

    You deserve a relationship that supports your goals and dreams. Let’s walk this journey together. 💙
