Ep. 6 - Building a new relationship with...

Breakup Coach Dorothy
About this episode

Your relationship with yourself is EVERYTHING. It's the number one relationship you'll have in your life. It's vital to build that relationship with yourself for two reasons. 1) to rebuild your confidence with yourself 2) learn to love spending time alone.

 

If you're anything like me, this was a new concept. I had built my life around someone else. I wasn't even aware that I didn't have true awareness around who I was, what I liked and what I disliked. I had no true sense of identity. I had to learn how to build that relationship with myself from scratch without the other person.

 

In this episode:

  • Why it's important to build a relationship with yourself
  • The 6 components to building that relationship
  • Examples on how to tangibly do that in your day to day life
