- Deep listening and self awareness are the twin pillars of healthy relationships.
- I am 100% responsible for managing my emotions and reactions.
- I own how those I love react to my energy, tone, words; that my intensity can be received as disempowering.
- The right person in the right relationship doesn’t make me secure. I make me secure.
- How to recognize that I’m playing out trauma wounds and anxious attachment in my relationships. And then how to break the loop.
- The role of the masculine is to protect the space for the feminine to exert and express her power.
- My job isn’t to meet her needs. It’s to help create the conditions for her to get her needs met.
- Compassion is in the eye of the recipient not my intentions.
- Disagreement and healthy conflict are part of a conscious relationship.
- There is a spiritual component to everything.
- Love is a verb. Loving is a skill. Self-Love is paramount.
- Intuition is never wrong but my reactions to it certainly can be wrong.
