Free Yourself from Toxic Relationship Patterns with Expert Sanaiyah Gurnamal

Are you trapped in negative relationship cycles that make you feel stuck and even a little crazy? Do you and your partner have toxic patterns--bouts of fighting, shutting down, or tuning out--that leave you feeling upset, unheard, and unloved? Although we often expect our intimate relationships to be naturally healthy and smooth, unhealthy dynamics can take over--or be present even from the start. But take heart--you don't have to stay stuck. Even destructive habits that seem permanently etched in the fabric of a relationship can be changed when genuine motivation and deep love are at work. Today, I'm joined by a relationship expert who is known for her magic touch in transforming past experiences—especially the not-so-shiny ones—into pure relationship gold. Topics discussed include healthy love, communication, relationship dynamics, toxic patterns, toxic dynamics, marriage, emotional connection, Runaway Bride, people pleasing, caretaker, fear of commitment, commitment phobia, self-love, self-care, relationship coach, power of attraction, manifestation, relationships, healthy relationships, attachment, secure attachment, insecure attachment, avoidant attachment, anxious attachment, love blocks, and self-growth.
