Who doesn’t want to find the love of their life?
PODCAST 10: Is Texting The New Way To Communicate? With Irena Polyakova
Description
About Irena : At 23, I believed in the magic of love as I walked down the aisle in a beautiful gown. But within three months, the fairytale began to crumble before my eyes. We both struggled with maintaining a healthy and enduring relationship. Unable to overcome communication struggles, our marriage fell apart after a brief five years. Through my second marriage, which lasted 12 years, I recognized the need for radical change in how I approached relationships, both with myself and others. Unhappiness and dissatisfaction consumed me, leaving me yearning for a genuine connection but not knowing what such a relationship truly entailed. Not ever seeing a healthy relationship model growing, I naively believed that love and relationships would manifest if I simply waited. And I waited, continuing to make mistakes. Like many, I learned about love and relationships from movies and the media—a far cry from reality’s complexity. In 2014, I embarked upon my own transformative journey, determined to actively acquire the skills necessary to understand myself and my desires and how to forge authentic and lasting connections with others. It took years, but it did not have to. Embarrassed and reluctant to seek guidance and support, I stubbornly attempted to navigate this path alone, convinced I was the only one with such struggles. But you don’t have to do this alone! I have witnessed the tremendous empowerment that comes with tools for achieving balance within and in meaningful connections with others. I am now able and dedicated to helping others find love and sustain it, creating a life of fulfillment. There may not be a shortcut to rewarding relationships, but I have the roadmap to help you get there!
