Stating your Needs and The Butt Pucker Z...

SHERRY GABA AND CARLA ROMO
About this episode

Sherry and Carla start out with some pillow talk and then take a Love Fix question from a listener who is frustrated at the lack of consistency they get around their partner listening and showing that they care. They then welcome Bex Burton, a trauma-informed certified life coach, helping independent women attract and grow lasting love without sacrificing who they are or what they want out of life. After painfully hitting the same walls and love for over a decade, Beck is committed to the study and growth of lasting love today, and she enjoys a deeply connected partnership for 11 years with the man of her dreams.
