Distinguishing Needs from Rules and Expectations

Jillian Turecki is a relationship expert, New York Times bestselling author of It Begins With You, and host of the podcast Jillian on Love.

This conversation explores why intimacy reveals our character defects, how childhood conditioning sabotages adult love, and the universal fear driving relationship dysfunction. We discuss why there's no cruise control in partnerships, why stress kills more relationships than infidelity, and how to distinguish needs from unrealistic expectations.

Along the way, Jillian performs a bit of relationship triage on me.

Jillian's message is direct and empowering. This one rules. Enjoy!
