If you are truly monogamous, you can’t check out other people. How does that statement make you feel? We came across that on Twitter and just had to do a video on it because it’s absurd. Let’s take it to the extreme: cheating would be watching a movie with your spouse because of the attractive actors and actresses. Surely this illustrates how ridiculous this view of monogamy is. Appreciating beauty and being attracted to other humans is normal and an innate biological aspect

Does unconditional love exist? We believe it does. We believe unconditional love exists because love isn’t transactional. Love is a chemical connection to another human and something that is not easily gained or lost. I think we can all agree that there is at least one person, be it a parent, a child, or a partner, that you will love forever. Even if they hurt or disappoint you, you’ll love them. People often conflate love with relationships. They aren’t the same thing. Relat

You know those times that you feel like throwing your computer out the window because of the nonsense you read on the internet? What about when your kids are refusing to listen to a word you say? That significant other that just can’t see how obtuse they are being? Well friends… those strong emotional reactions have their roots in emotional flooding.

How many of you have been in a relationship (or are currently in one) where your partner didn’t want you to exercise, eat a certain way, or accomplish goals that you have? It’s a red flag. It indicates that your partner is insecure about you gaining self-confidence and becoming less codependent on them. It’s not a conscious action, but an unconscious belief. Now, obviously we need to be realistic about setting goals, so some inquiry about why and how you have come to set a ce

Nobody likes people that are passive aggressive because it’s wastes everyone’s time and is a shady way around being honest. We hit on the downfalls of being passive in yesterdays video, but wanted to help point out ways you can recognize passivity in yourself and others. Back-handed compliments. This is the most stereotypical type of passive-aggressiveness. It’s when you can’t simply be happy for another’s success, so you try to take them down a peg with sarcasm. Unfriendly s

Let’s talk about being direct! The main reason I’ve been referred to as a bitch my entire life... not because I am, but rather because no one likes to hear uncomfortable truths. I don’t like to soften my words to accommodate others sensitivities. It’s not rude, it just saves us all time. How many of you communicate in vague language that doesn’t directly convey what you want to say? How many of you then get upset at someone for not understanding what you intended to say? They
