info_outlineDon't you sometimes wish you had a Date Night Planner? It would definitely come in handy. There are particular occasions in life that require a lot of thought and planning. If prom night is coming up, you know you want to figure out ahead of time what you’ll be wearing. If it’s your wedding day, you’ve likely spent months setting your intentions for the day—what you’ll wear, where it will be, the flow of the day, the experience throughout the day, both for yourself and your guests. These are examples of occasions that you put a lot of thought and attention into in advance in order to set yourself up for success.
But the truth is you don’t have to save that approach for the big milestones. You can put care into and set intentions for all experiences in your life, both big and small.
In this episode, I discuss:
- Ways to approach a date night so that it doesn’t disappoint you or your partner
- How to set your intentions for just about anything in your life
- What won’t work if you want to set yourself up for success
- How these ideals apply not only to your relationship but to all interactions in life
…plus much more.
My hope is that you will walk away from this episode with a new outlook on how to approach the experiences in your life. Since my ultimate goal is for you to create more connection in your relationship, I want you to see that each little encounter you have with your partner constitutes an opportunity for connection. You can obviously take this further and apply it to any other aspect of your life as well!
