Does your partner know you? I mean REALLY know you?
Are you honest and real with them about how you feel? Do you open up but only to a point? Do you shut down often?
What would happen if you let your partner into your inner world? If you stopped expecting them to read your mind and instead you took the opportunity to share?
This episode explains why it feels so much easier NOT to be totally honest about your feelings. Then it tells you exactly what you've been missing by stifling yourself.
Beautiful things happen when we get vulnerable.

Unpopular Opinion: It only takes one person to fix a relationship!
If you are in a relationship or in a marriage where your partner is not in a position to work on themselves, either because they don't have the capacity or they are not willing to, that does not mean that things are hopeless at all!!
And the quicker that you can put down your need for them to change and take all of that energy and put it into how are you going to change, the quicker you're going to see a better relationship with yourself and with your partner. This work is contagious.

The silent treatment was always my go-to. Before I had actual tools to handle conflict and disappointment, I just shut down.
For me, this was a learned behavior... and I had NO IDEA how damaging it was to my partner. I thought that by ignoring and "punishing" my partner, he would somehow see things my way and come running to me as if we were in some RomCom.
Real relationships take real work. If you find yourself giving your partner the silent treatment often, this episode is the real talk you've been waiting for.

Melanie used to regret marrying her husband and now she hates being away from him. The work she did in between is the answer to overcoming hard times.
Many women have expectations for marriage that simply aren't realistic. You will go through hard times. You will feel disconnected. And if you have kids, you will be sleep deprived!
But don't give up! There is a way to move through hard times that will bring you and your partner together and get you back on the same team.
Hit play to hear Melanie's wisdom and advice - it will blow you away!
Who is Melanie Shenberger?
Melanie is a wife and mother of two little girls. She is also a coach specializing in home decluttering and shifting the mindset around the things in your home.
Melanie grew up in constant chaos and clutter in her childhood home and it was an exact representation of her mind. When she got married young all that chaos followed her and started taking its toll on her marriage. After a very rocky start, Melanie was able to save her crumbling marriage but it wasn't until years later that she started getting to the root of why so many issues were present, to begin with.
After experiencing the miscarriage of her second child, she realized that she needed a change. She was tired of the chaos that was her home and mind. She started down a journey of minimalism and began crafting a program to systematically remove not just the things from your home, but resolve the stories and emotions attached to them. After removing approximately 80% of her belongings from their home, she started realizing just how much all the "stuff" had contributed to her early marital issues.
Melanie now coaches women on crafting the home and life that they want so they can enjoy every moment of motherhood, marriage, and themselves.

When you feel sad and hurt, do you allow yourself to feel those feelings? Or do you have all kinds of judgmental opinions about how you SHOULD or SHOULDN'T feel?
The way you talk to yourself about your own thoughts and feelings is the difference between self-abandonment and self-compassion. You are the one who talks to you the most... so learning how to be nice to you is life changing.
If you're feeling disconnected from your partner, there is a good chance you are also feeling disconnected from yourself on some level. Accepting your thoughts and feelings as true and OK allows you to get to know yourself and gives your partner the opportunity to love you for you.

We all have fears. But certain fears REALLY keep you stuck. Some common ones are fear of rejection, fear of being let down, and fear of conflict.
Having these fears is not the problem. It's when you make decisions based on those fears that you become disconnected from your partner.
Many times, I find that the unhealthy dynamic in a relationship can be traced back to a specific, root fear. By gaining awareness over fear, naming it, and getting coached on it - you finally fix the wound as opposed to slapping on a bandaid.

Boundaries has become a buzz word. Social media has portrayed boundaries as an aggressive protection tactic. But those of us who are educated and trained on boundaries know that nothing could be further from the truth.
When you start to reframe boundaries as an act of love - both for your partner and for yourself - the relationship becomes healthier.
Join me as I interview Heather Claus, author and coach, who wrote a book about boundaries! She shares the five steps to creating and maintaining healthy boundaries with your partner.
Who is Heather Claus?
Heather has lived an atypical life.
She's hitchhiked across the country, traveled and worked in a carnival for a season, roamed New York City with street people, explored (and taught) alternative lifestyles, and more.
All of her experiences thus far have led her to the belief that boundaries are the key to not only saving ourselves, but our relationships.
She's a big fan of amazing people enjoying love, sex, and romance in happy and functional lives (whatever that might look like from human to human), which is why she's thrilled to share her experience and knowledge of boundaries with you! ❤️

This is a replay of one of my most popular episodes from back in the day. The secret to ending the conflict with your partner is not a specific communication strategy. Those can be helpful but only with the right emotion behind it; the secret emotion that ends ALL kinds of conflict. If you can tap into it, you are well on your way to resolution and connection with your partner.

Does your emotional state depend on your partner's emotional state?
If you need them to be ok in order for you to be ok, you are codependent. The most painful part of codependency is the self-abandonment that happens. If you feel a little nudge in your gut that you often stifle and ignore, I want to invite you to hit play and keep an open mind.
You can heal from codependency and even have a healthy relationship! But the first step is awareness and honesty with yourself.

Do you feel like you've lost yourself in your relationship? Can you remember what it's like to be YOU? Have you ever really known what that means?
In this episode, Kshama Singhi and I discuss the importance of becoming your authentic self and how it creates connection and intimacy in your marriage.
So if you're feeling that inner conflict of wanting to be your true self but also striving to be the woman you think you're supposed to be - this episode is for you!
Who is Kshama?
Kshama Singhi is a Jay Shetty Certified Happiness & Empowerment Coach, working with female professionals who are feeling stuck, invisible and rejected in their relationship, experiencing fear and doubt of an uncertain future. Kshama’s own personal experiences of moving countries, being in a corporate job and going through divorce allows her to understand and help others going through similar situations.
Kshama has worked in the healthcare industry for over 12 years. Spring of 2015, her marriage of 9 years was falling apart. Her ex-husband had left her and her 5-year-old to be with someone else. Her well-meaning friends and family would say things like “change yourself”, “lose some weight”, “leave your job and pay more attention to him”. Feeling rejected, broken and desperate to save her marriage, Kshama started her self development journey. It is then that she realised how her relationship with herself had a direct impact on her marriage and other areas of her life.
Having gone through these challenges and come out as a winner, Kshama is now passionate to help other females, going through similar issues and empowering them to become the best version of themselves.
Kshama is a no-nonsense coach and pushes you relentlessly through your internal distractions and limitations to perform at your full potential.

Many women have expectations for marriage that simply aren't realistic. You will go through hard times. You will feel disconnected. And if you have kids, you will be sleep deprived!
But don't give up! There is a way to move through hard times that will bring you and your partner together and put you back on the same team.
Join me as I interview Melanie Shenberger as she tells her marriage story. She used to regret marrying her husband and now she hates being away from him. The work she did in between is the answer to overcoming hard times.
Her wisdom and advice will blow you away!
Who is Melanie Shenberger?
Melanie is a wife and mother of two little girls. She is also a coach specializing in home decluttering and shifting the mindset around the things in your home.
Melanie grew up in constant chaos and clutter in her childhood home and it was an exact representation of her mind. When she got married young all that chaos followed her and started taking its toll on her marriage. After a very rocky start, Melanie was able to save her crumbling marriage but it wasn't until years later that she started getting to the root of why so many issues were present, to begin with.
After experiencing the miscarriage of her second child, she realized that she needed a change. She was tired of the chaos that was her home and mind. She started down a journey of minimalism and began crafting a program to systematically remove not just the things from your home, but resolve the stories and emotions attached to them. After removing approximately 80% of her belongings from their home, she started realizing just how much all the "stuff" had contributed to her early marital issues.
Melanie now coaches women on crafting the home and life that they want so they can enjoy every moment of motherhood, marriage, and themselves.

Most women feel resentment in marriage but very few women go through the process of releasing resentment.

If you're ready to hear some truth, ready to do the work, ready to put your happiness and your marriage first... this episode is for you.
Karyn Seitz and her husband were completely disconnected. They were co-existing, barely having sex, and not communicating effectively.
She tried everything - therapy, reiki, yoga... you name it. Finally, she came across some mentors that helped her look inward for the answers.
Today she enjoys a connected, intimate marriage with that same husband. Join us as she shares the steps she took to get there.
Who is Karyn Seitz?
As a former spiritual healer, Karyn realized her clients were not getting better. She was frustrated that she could not deliver the results her clients wanted even though she was trying lots of different healing modalities and coaching techniques.
Karyn knew she also wasn’t getting the changes she wanted in her life. She secretly lacked any confidence in her ability to change. Her adult life had stalled.
In a fresh new search for answers, Karyn found the missing piece that would ultimately transform her life and her clients. There is something very profound in owning that she is the problem in her life. This awareness pushed her to confront herself and get serious about herself and her life.
Karyn is now fulfilled in her life and teaches others the same journey she has taken to find herself and be happy.
Karyn calls herself The Happiness Expert and teaches an online happiness course for women called Awakened Grace.

Welcome back to the show, my friends! Guess what? I wrote you a free guide! It’s called 21 Questions that will bring you and your partner closer than ever!
I like to keep my podcast episodes on the shorter side, so I won’t give you all 21 questions here… plus I want you to go download the guide! Because included in there are tips for getting ready to have such an intimate conversation, rules for having the conversation itself, and then ways to reflect afterwards.
But I did want to come on here and give you a little preview. So, I chose my three favorite questions from the list. Which was hard!
Before we get into the questions themselves, I wanted to take a minute to talk about why it’s so damn important to have these kinds of conversations. In the last episode, Are You and Your Partner In Different Relationships, I talked about how everyone’s experience comes from their thoughts. So, when you’re walking along having a normal day, your thoughts that day… the sentences in your brain… are what determine what kind of day you will have.
You can listen to that episode to learn more about what that has to do with your relationship, but I just wanted to revisit the fact that you and your partner have different thoughts and different experiences within the same relationship. So, coming together to have structured conversations bring the two of you into the same experience, therefore creating connection....

Ep 1 – 5 Signs You’re in A Healthy Relationship
http://partnershipaligned.com/1
So you’ve found your person. Your life partner. The one you want to be with through thick and thin. The one you vent to about your day, talk to about what you’re going through, and have all those private jokes with. It’s awesome!
But sometimes, being in a relationship is really hard. So how do you know whether the hard stuff is just growing pains or whether it’s a symptom of a deeper issue that needs some serious attention?
Well, that is exactly what we are going to figure out today. I’m going to give you the five qualifications that you are in a healthy relationship.
