Hi Friends!
The excitement of a new relationship can be fun and a euphoric experience. We want to put our best foot forward and prioritize our partners. However, the dark side to this experience can lead to resentment, unsustainable expectations, and (in a worst-case scenario) premature endings, if we aren't careful in knowing how to set healthy boundaries to keep our identity and have a strong sense of self.

In this episode, I share my thoughts, reflections, and my two cents on the importance of keeping your identity,  ways I've chosen to maintain individualism, and the questions and conversations you and your partner (or with anyone that is special to you) can use to sustain your sense of self and keep your relationship strong and healthy.

All the notes and links mentioned in this episode are down below:

Enjoy!

Conversation starters by Dr. N. Jenner:

  1. How can I maintain my individuality while being fully committed to my partner and our relationship?
  2. How can we support each other’s personal growth and individual interests without feeling threatened or left out?
  3. How can we ensure that our communication styles support and encourage each other’s individuality?
  4. What are some signs that our relationship might be lacking a healthy sense of individuality, and how can we address this issue?
  5. How can we create a safe space within our relationship for open and honest conversations about personal values, beliefs, and opinions?
  6. How can we foster a sense of independence and self-reliance within our relationship while still maintaining a strong emotional connection?
  7. How can we recognize and respect each other’s boundaries while still maintaining a close and connected partnership?
