Ep 127 Dating With Authenticity - How To Say Yes To The Relationship You Want

This is often where we get it all wrong, finding someone to complete us. And this is where the problem lies because we often rely on another person to constantly fill that emotional void we should have worked on ourselves first.

When that brokenness in us is not healed yet, it manifests in our relationships. Most often, that leads to us being unhappy, unfulfilled, wanting more, and ending up in unhappy relationships.

We need to feel whole and complete in ourselves first. And having said that, we also need to say no to what won't work for us and yes to what we genuinely want and is best for us.

Once we work on ourselves to be fully capable of standing on our own, have emotional mastery, and stop being needy, we attract the right person.

We often see that happening when we least expect it; the right one comes along.

In this episode, our guest, Brooke, shares that hiring a coach and investing in herself for her happiness and fulfillment is the best thing that ever happened to her.

Mindset, for her, is everything. You may not be perfect about it every day. But like her, who has gone through a divorce and emotional distress brought about by that event, it helps to feel empowered. That is, putting meaning into what happened instead of being victimized by it.

Once she finds herself in that situation, she only basks in her worthiness and gets to choose whom she wants, never worries about not finding a guy because she knows what she wants and will get it, which indeed she did, with her husband now.

"Work on yourself; you can only clean up your side of the street. You can't fix or change anyone else." - Brooke
