Welcome to Episode 7 of THRIVE: Mental Health and the Art of Living Free! 

Today, I will be concluding our series on relationships.  This isn't a marriage episode. This is a relationship episode. We are all in relationships. However, the fact is even though we are relational beings, we are incredibly lonely. Google the phrase loneliness epidemic and you'll see what I mean.

In this episode,  I discuss:

1. How the loneliness epidemic is far more dangerous than the Coronavirus .
2. how to improve your relationships with others by improving your relationship you have with yourself.
3. Why you shouldn't depend on others to meet your needs for security and approval.
4. How to let go of unrealistic, perfectionistic expectations of yourself
