How can you focus on other things like your personal & spiritual growth if you are constantly in conflict with your partner?
In today’s world of a quick divorce, I have here an expert on relationships who has been married for 40 years! In this podcast interview of Dr. Gay Hendricks, a Stanford graduate, Phd in Counseling, author of numerous books and founder of Hendricks Institute, we explore how can we love ourselves, how that self compassion shows up in our relationships, soulmates, top 4 reasons of relationship challenges and how we can take responsibility for our own happiness in a relationship.
Dr. Hendricks is the host of ‘The Big Leap’ podcast with Mike Koenigs. He has appeared on more than 500 radio and television shows, including OPRAH, CNN, CNBC, 48 HOURS, and others.
