Why Love Is Not Enough & 5 Things to Foc...

About this episode

Do you and your partner share values?

How do you support each other emotionally?

Today, Jay taps into the  idea that love alone is not sufficient to sustain a healthy relationship. While love is important, other elements such as shared values, emotional maturity, consistent patterns of behavior, and trust are crucial for long-lasting partnerships. Societal norms often romanticize love, leading people to overlook these essential factors.

Jay discusses the significance of understanding and respecting each other's values, as well as recognizing and addressing patterns of behavior. Emotional maturity, which involves managing and expressing emotions healthily, is highlighted as a key component of a stable relationship. Support and partnership are deemed more critical than love alone.

In this episode, you'll learn:

How to communicate your value to your partner

How to develop emotional maturity

How to support your partner's emotional growth

How to build trust in your relationship

Remember, love is important, but building a relationship on trust, values, and emotional maturity is key.

With Love and Gratitude,

Jay Shetty
