The Relationship GuyAre We As Choosy About Relationships As We Think?In this episode, John talks about how we, as human beings craving connection, we may not be as selective as we are led to believe when it comes to building new relationships and creating new connections. KEY TAKEAWAYS Studies show that people are not always selective when it comes to choosing a partner. During speed test studies, people said yes to 40% of their dating options.

The Relationship Guy10 Things That Suggest Your Relationship Isn't As Good As You Make OutWe often tell ourselves and others that our relationship with our partner is far stronger than it really is, but as John discusses in this first show of the year, it might be time for a reality check. KEY TAKEAWAYS As we move through a relationship, we tend to accumulate more and more in the way of emotional anchors, such as children or financial arrangements.

KEY TAKEAWAYS When we become codependent, we lose part of ourselves - our identities. We hand control to a person, and thereby give part of ourselves away. Previous generations have a...2021-12-3148 min

The Relationship GuyCodependencyThis week, John looks at codependency - a circular relationship in which one person needs the other person, who in turn, needs to be needed - how it manifests within relationships, and how we can identify this compulsion. KEY TAKEAWAYS Codependency is typically discussed in the same terms as substance abuse. It is the reliance of one person upon the other in order to keep this addiction going.

The Relationship GuyModern Relationship TerminologyThis week, John discusses modern relationship terminology, and how certain ways of describing or phrasing things can help us to better understand the places from which we have come in life. KEY TAKEAWAYS One of the most important red flags you can have in a relationship is the fact that you really know nothing deep about your partner, and they they are reticent to share their innermost hopes and dreams.

The Relationship GuyThe Pitfalls Of Perfectionism In RelationshipsWe all dream of the perfect relationship, but as John discusses in this week's show, sometimes there is beauty to be found in the imperfect. Sometimes, perfection can come with its own set of risks...

The Relationship GuyCuriosity: Is It Better For Humans Than It is For Cats?This week, John discusses curiosity, and how cultivating it can lead to more fulfilment when it comes to relationships, and a more fulfilling life. KEY TAKEAWAYS Humans are built to be curious. This is how we have managed to evolve since the dawn of time, and what drives us as children to learn about the world around us.

Curious people are more open to new social experiences, and are more willing to embrace...2021-10-2911 min

The Relationship GuyThe Power In Setting Personal BoundariesDespite what many believe, there is a truly positive power in saying "no".

The Relationship GuyAffirmationsThis week, John talks about affirmations and how they can help to establish a far more positive internal relationship with ourselves, thereby allowing us to create far more meaningful relationships with others. KEY TAKEAWAYS If we foster a negative viewpoint or perspective internally, then it is far more unlikely that we will ever be able to create a positive relationship with others.

Hermetic philosophy states that we c...2021-10-0120 min

The Relationship GuyWhat Could Be More Significant Than Love?We believe that love is the only thing that can keep a relationship alive, but as John discusses on this week's episode, there are also other things that are equally as crucial in keeping the flame burning. KEY TAKEAWAYS Understanding is a vital tenet of relationships. Empathy for another is a deep understanding that allows us to truly connect and understand. We must teach the next generations how to gain a better sense of understanding, so that they can form authentic and lasting relationships. Empathy is the art of putting ourselves into the shoes (emotionally) of...2021-08-2011 min

The Relationship GuyThe Language Of LoveThis time, John talks about the language of love itself, which communicates itself through many varied means, including subconscious, physical, psychological, sensual and of course, verbal. KEY TAKEAWAYS We have learned through our life experiences, the way we wish to be loved, respected and cared for by others. We each have a different means of listening to the language of love. An act of service refers not to servitude, but rather that actions speak louder than words. It is when others recognise your need and show love voluntarily. We have a primary way of feeling loved...2021-07-2322 min

The two main types of attachment are secure and insecure. Secure is found in people who have experienced love and acceptance.
