Wants and Needs  | Ep #57

Most of us have been taught that we should decide what we want and need out of relationships, communicate those things to our partners, and expect them to come through for us. Unfortunately, this sets us up for a whole lot of disappointment.

In this episode, I'll be going over the difference between wants and needs, and how to get those met. Instead of waiting for someone to take care of us, you'll learn how to advocate for what you want without handing that responsibility over to someone else (and often feeling let down).

You'll also learn how to tell the difference between wants that will encourage personal growth, and those that are born of insecurity and scarcity.

Knowing what you want and taking full responsibility encourages individual development, while letting those around you see who you really are.
