Is love ever enough?
November 23, 2020

I watched a movie and it was all romantic and lovey dovey. I was "awwing" but the relationship coach in me kept screaming red flag, no way, how can you fall for that, use your head girl, etc. Let me gist you. This guy is badly behaved and hurt because his mother betrayed him. He displayed this bad attitude to everyone around him. This girl, who is his personal assistant , stayed in spite of the ridicule and emotional abuse. She was there for him,...

How realistic are your expectations?

I think we are all kind of guilty of this. We have an image of a perfect spouse based on what we read, what we "think " we see in other people and what we have experienced.

Bisi gave birth and has...

November 23, 2020

Encouragement is further than praise. I encourage even when I don't see result just yet. I believe in them, in their effort , in capabilities and capacity and even the manifestation is not evident, I choose to encourage and boost their moral.What am I saying? As it relates to your relationship, do you offer only praise and refuse to encourage ? Praise does wonders. It makes your partner know that you see them and all their efforts....
