I first met Garrison Cohen in Bali last year. We did Improv, played frisbee, and had many a deep conversation.
He has an amazing ability to make people feel special and important. I first realized this during Thanksgiving last year:
Garrison hosted an American thanksgiving celebration in Bali for 30-40 people from around the world. Before we started the meal, he gave a speech about the history and importance of the holiday. The result was that people felt privileged to be a part of our group and the celebration.
Garrison has been studying relationships his whole life, and is one of Americaâ€s top dating and relationship coaches for men and women. He was former co-founder of AuthenticWorld Media, and hosts the new podcast Looking for You. He is an award winning filmmaker, speaker, writer and honorary member of the Society of Leadership & Success.
His mission (as I understand it) is to help people move past the adolescent phase into their full adulthood so they can have authentic, sexy, enlightened, and drama free relationships.
So listen to this episode to find out what it means to have and amazing, fulfilling relationship by understanding yourself and having a clear sense of integrity. Find out the most brave and bold steps you can take in a relationship, and soak up all of Garrisonâ€s amazing stories and parables about adventurous relationships he has seen or been part of.
What you will learn in this episode:
-Turning breakdowns into breakthroughs
-The story about the man who thought love didnâ€t exist
-What it means that we are in a pre-arranged marriage with ourselves
-How to get out of your head and start understanding your feelings
-How to be brave and bold in the face of risk and rejection
-What it means to have integrity
-All about polyamory compared to monogamy in terms of self knowledge
Quotes:
