E108: Relationship 101 | Improving Your ...

SHANNON O’HARA
About this episode

The Relationship That Shapes Everything..

In the final episode of the Relationship Series, Shannon explores the one relationship that impacts every other: the relationship with you.

Self-awareness, honor, and kindness are keys to changing your entire life? What are you expecting others to be for you that only you can be for you? And how do the five elements of intimacy - honor, allowance, vulnerability, gratitude, and trust - reshape your connection with yourself?

Shannon offers practical tools and powerful questions to stop self-judgment, embrace being, and finally enjoy YOU. This episode is a deep dive into choosing presence with yourself, knowing what works for you, and creating peace, not perfection.

Key takeaways:

  • The relationship with yourself is the only one you can fully control.
  • Judgment - positive or negative - is corrosive and blocks true intimacy.
  • Liking yourself isn’t about ego, it’s about knowing and honoring who you are.
  • The Five Elements of Intimacy are powerful tools for healing and evolving self-connection.
  • You can build self-awareness by asking simple questions like asking: “What do I know?”.
  • Vulnerability isn’t weakness - it’s what allows magic, support, and presence to show up in your life.
  • You don’t need to “get it right” - you just need to choose what works for you.

Final Thought:

What if you could stop proving, judging, and fixing - and simply be?
Being you is the one thing no one else can do.
