One of the most common questions we hear is, "How do we make our relationship work?" The answers are complicated and varied and, after a while, can start to sound like muddled platitudes.

Reading is important. Not only is it one way to fill in the gaps left by formal education, but it is a meaningful way to better ourselves.

In this episode, let me share with you a few b…

Personal boundaries are the limits and rules we set for ourselves within relationships.

From identifying your burdens …

It isn’t wrong to say that we live in a generation with a tremendous sense of self-importance. If you point this out as a problem, the critics will accuse you of not seeing the need for self-esteem. But even self-esteem has become a euphemism for self-absorption. In this episode, I am joined by a good friend, Elim Ou. We talk about finding freedom …

We’ve all been there — those moments where we feel hurt over something someone has said or done. When this happens, it’s easy to assume that the other person is responsible for making you feel that way. Despite popular belief, no one can make you feel anything. In this episode, I talk about how you must take ownership of your feelings and that nobo…

We’re at an age where people are obsessed with following society’s standards of “looking good.” Women should be “slim” and not exceed a certain weight, while men should be “fit” and muscular to even be considered “desirable.” While people are slowly breaking the barrier of what is deemed acceptable in terms of body shapes and sizes, we can’t deny t…

Almost every one of us wants success. Life coaches and motivational speakers can tell you how to start, but no one will tell you that the road to success will be boring. “All you have to do is start!” is great advice for someone who hasn’t started yet.

If you want to improve your writing skills, you shou…

Excuses are on every corner imaginable. When we have a goal, there are always going to be setbacks. If you take all the time in the world looking at everything that could go wrong, you may result in inaction. Sometimes, you have to take a leap of faith even though you don’t know the outcome. It’s far better to take a chance and fail rather than sit…

At one point in our lives, we’ve struggled with trying to be who we wanted and always tried to please others or not do anything to be judged harshly. We’ve all tried to hide how we feel to maintain the “strong” facade. We all did things that were “unlike us” to keep up with what society expects us to be. But we were doing it to serve others’ expect…

The answer is no. For starters, women aren’t weak. They may be physically weaker, but they are still pretty strong. What society misidentifies as strength is power, and men shine at physical power. But the idea that men are stronger in an absolute or general sense is just obviously wrong. Women live longer, and fewer die young. Men’s bodies are big…

Everyone loves being right. Scrutinizing other people’s opinions has become a pastime. If not, take a look at Twitter – what used to be social media has become a virtual court. There’s always a jury ready to find you guilty as charged. But being always right is overrated. Being right serves no purpose if the outcome isn’t better, doesn’t help, or d…

We all suffer from a bout or two of “shoulds” and “coulds” in our lives.

Fear is a fundamental emotion that is wired deeply inside each of us. It’s an emotion that has successfully evolved to protect us against any perceived threat to our integrity or existence.
