The Love Fix


Sep 24, 2021

Sherry and Carla kick off the week discussing their thoughts on if candles are a generational thing and take a Love Fix question on how to know what it is you really need when you’re focused so much on your partner. Then, they welcome Certified Counselor Marquita Johnson, who has over 10 years of practice and a large set of tools to use to help her clients heal and realize their potential. She talks about what millennials are doing wrong in love, how we can use technology to our advantage, and why we need to be accountable for what baggage WE bring into the relationship.

 

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

 

  • Millennials don’t want the relationships their parents had, so what is it that they really want?
  • What are some telltale signs that it is time to say goodbye in a relationship?
  • Stop trying to convince someone that you are worthy!
  • We have the responsibility of working on our own baggage and wounds, so it isn’t an endless cycle of both people getting triggered by one another.
  • You define love on YOUR terms, not by society’s or even by the people around you.
  • Want a fun way to explore your relationship? Check out Marquita’s relationship conversation cards along with ways to work with Sherry and Carla on overcoming codependency, dating, healing from toxic relationships and gaining confidence.
  • What we can learn from J-Lo and her love life!
  • Someone can add to your life, but it’s important to take responsibility for your own happiness and security.
