Self Care and Chill With Maui

This episode is about growing apart and needing space. Not allowing your ego to get in the way of maintaining relationships or friendships that are meaningful to you. It’s really hard when you love someone or you want to make it work with them but it’s just not happening. If you can relate this episode is for you.

On this episode I talk about a blog that I wrote on my Substack about what friendships have taught me in this season of my life of being on tour. How curiosity can give us the clarity that we need all by just asking our friends questions and not avoiding uncomfortable conversations. Clarity gives us space to be vulnerable and get closer. But your friends don’t deserve to be treated like they are disposable, when they haven’t betrayed you. Our friendships deserve the same grace, vulnerability and compassion we would give in a romantic relationship. Use the FRIENDS for a discount on my new book Still Unlearning

On this episode I talk about being in a situation with a person who provides the bare minimum to you spiritually but enjoys the benefits of your company and enjoying you sexually. Knowing and understanding that, people are doing what we allow them to do, because we are not properly communicating our standards or expectations. How do we get to a point that someone is coming over our houses all the time for sex but still has yet to plan a date with you? Or even worse, you are ubering or wasting gas to go over his house, where there is no flowers waiting for you, no meal prepared, just a bed that he made or may not have made, that he wants you to lay in with him. There is more to do, than just lay up with someone. TICKETS FOR SHOWS AND BOOKS

On this episode I talk about how it pays for you to take things slow and really get to know someone. Dating for a week and then it turning into sex and then hanging out at your place or their place is not dating. That’s just laying up. I give my opinion on what I feel like dating should look like, how to be intentional with the questions you’re asking and how to not waste your time or have someone save you for later.
