How to Live Life on YOUR Terms with Laura Behnke Ep. 128

Last week I did an Instagram live with Laura Behnke of Life Actually. Laura and I align on so many levels—she also found love later than she’d hoped to and therefore dealt with “single shaming” along the way. Laura’s been there, felt that and learned to embrace her life actually! Join us for a lively conversation discussing:

• How to increase your self worth (spoiler alert: science says there’s only ONE way!)
  
• Managing the fear of, “What if I never find my person?”
  
• How to use “psychological flexibility” to embrace your life actually and live life on YOUR terms! (“psychological flexibility” comes from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy—see episode 65 with Dr. Steven C. Hayes, creator of ACT)
  
• How to fall in love with being by yourself.
  
• The myth of being “too independent” to find love and why your independence makes you BETTER prepared for partnership!
  
• How being with a partner because you WANT each other—as opposed to NEED each other—protects us from infidelity.
  
• How to move from operating from a place of fear to empowered decision making!
  

Laura and I had so much to talk about, I decided to break up our convo into two parts. Enjoy part one, and sit tight for part two which we’ll roll out later this week.
