How to Heal and Create Conscious Love with Dr. Sarah Schewitz

There are two buzzwords that have been thrown around in the realm of dating and relationships lately that are often misused: narcissism and codependency. How do you know if you are a narcissist or codependent? How do you know if you’re dating one?

 In this episode of the Love Intently Podcast, we discuss:
 -
 -A dialogue framework for couples that allows each partner to understand and communicate their childhood wounds with each other that are being triggered, in order to create a more conscious relationship
 -What are the red flags to look out for in a partner that indicates you should walk away from the relationship
 -How to know if you’re in a codependent relationship or dating a narcissist
 -How codependents and narcissists are two sides of the same coin, and what core childhood wound they have in common
 -How can couples maintain their identities in a relationship, rather than losing themselves?
 -What is Dr. Sarah’s online couples therapy Couples Learn all about and why did she start it?
 -Resources and tools other than therapy that couples can use to become more conscious in their relationship

 With endless tools and resources online these days, there’s really no excuse to not take the responsibility to own your own healing journey. Often times it’s not actually a problem for us to find love—the real problem is our inability to receive love, because we do not love ourselves. The more conscious we become of why that is, the sooner we can begin to heal it, and the sooner we can find and receive the healthy, secure love we deserve and desire!
