Stronger in the Difficult Places
Today is a solo episode, where I ask you 6 questions to determine if you’re in love with your partner or just their potential. If you are brave, you could ask your partner these questions, but if you are truly committed to health you should turn these questions back on yourself and ask if you represent any of these things for your partner.
