"Toxic love is when your trauma is the oxygen for your relationship... whereas a conscious relationship is saying that I have these things, I'm trying to heal them, I'm going to make my partner aware of what I'm healing because I'm not fully healed." - Jay Shetty

Jay Shetty dismantles the common misconceptions about conscious love, revealing that it's not about being perfectly healed or selflessly giving more than your partner. Instead, he explains how conscious relationships thrive on clear agreements, healthy boundaries, and open communication about personal growth journeys. His refreshing perspective challenges the competitive nature of toxic relationships, where partners keep score and use vulnerability as ammunition during arguments.

Drawing from real-life examples, Shetty illustrates how supporting a partner through their healing journey can transform a potentially toxic situation into a conscious relationship. He emphasizes that the key difference lies in how partners handle each other's vulnerabilities and traumas - whether they use them as weapons or create a safe space for growth and healing together. Through his practical framework of relationship rules, he encourages couples to create their own principles for building a foundation of mutual understanding and support.
