LETS TALK ABOUT Love, RElationships & Sex

Valentine's Day is fast approaching, and we all know that love, relationships and sex are essential for our happiness and wellbeing.

In this curated conversation, our founder Janera Soerel chatted with Handel Group's Expert Love Coach Laurie Gerber on how to find and maintain fulfilling romantic relationships.

Laurie talked about Love being a verb, as opposed to a concept. She encouraged radical self-honesty about your needs and wants, and then assessing if the other person meets these desires. It starts with you, and not the other way around, where we try to fit into the other person's vision of the right partner.

We also talked about sex, gender roles, and when to call a relationship quits. Our main take-away, as with most things in life is, "it depends".

Most people will need to search inside themselves and do the personal growth work. The right relationship will act as a mirror of these main points of growth and will help with living a more purposeful life.
