WITHOUT SOLID RELATIONAL FOUNDATIONS, IT’S QUITE LIKELY THAT YOU…

• Don’t know how to ask for what you want - or are one of those overly demanding people that irritates the hell out of everyone

• Struggle with feedback or criticism - unable to differentiate between what they think about you, and what you know to be true about yourself

• Settle for less intimacy than you actually want - and tell yourself over and over “if only they would change then it would finally get better”

• Think smalltalk is so fucking boring - that you’d rather watch Netflix than go out and socialise

• Find yourself fighting over the silliest things with your loved ones - only to find that it’s almost always just a simple misunderstanding, and yet you continue to repeat the cycle

• Are so shy and awkward in social settings - that you might as well be holding a lamp in the corner

• Can’t seem to “fit in” no matter how hard you try - with a little tickle in your mind that says that… “surely there is a more authentic way to express myself?”

At a practical level, the way you relate with someone will determine the quality of the relationship you have with them. Your mental and emotional well-being absolutely depends on your relationships, and the level that you feel connected in them. 

Not only that but also your ability to be a powerful leader, create an engaging work space, make a meaningful impact in the world, all while living a kick-ass life, entirely rests upon this foundation of high-quality relating. 

IT IS POSSIBLE TO BECOME SO MUCH MORE SKILLFUL IN THE WAYS OF RELATING

There is a roadmap of self-awareness that will allow you to show up embodied and grounded, with healthy boundaries, skilfull communication, clearly expressed needs and desires, and a strong sense of who you are.

Couple this with the ability to welcome the best out in the people around you… and you have a recipe for a whole new world of incredible friendships, passionate romance, fulfilling work-life and healthy family dynamics.

Words cannot adequately describe just how powerful, beautiful and liberating having these types of relationships are…. they need to be experienced

The current relational Foundations we’ve been taught just-aren’t-good-enough.

We need new ones.

Has been so incredibly transformative for me. Before, I felt lonely and unseen all the time, even with an active social life. I often projected who I thought others wanted me to be so I’d get acceptance and connection. I hid large parts of me away, largely without even realising it. Really owning and sharing who I actually am has felt so fucking liberating! And it’s not only my relationships that have transformed, but also my sense of personal power - how good I feel about myself and my ability to create results in my life.

here's what they say...
