643. The HR-ification of Relationships + "Spiritual" People Dating

Get ready to laugh (and cry a little bit) during this insanely relatable conversation between Krista and her actor-director-musician BFF, Joey Pollari! Krista and Joey chat about the ways we may be overusing “therapy talk” – a.k.a. things only you and your therapist talk about – in our relationships. Instead of slapping labels on someone or going overboard with “honest feedback,” sometimes it’s best to lead with how we’re actually feeling.  Krista and Joey recount stories of their own shortcomings in relationships as well as how they’ve grown in their self-awareness and communication skills. At the end of the day, therapy is one of our greatest tools for evolution, but learning how to integrate what we do in therapy with our real-time interactions is the ultimate relationship game changer! We also talk about: Why birthdays are triggering  Giving loving feedback in relationship The HR-ification of relationships Boundaries vs. walls “Spiritual” people on dating apps  Forgiveness + accepting people The power of stating your emotions Why labels aren’t effective tools for healing Raising the bar in dating  The myth of being “special”  Going after your creative dreams  Resources:  Youtube: @joey_pollari   Instagram: @joeypollari   Twitter: joeypollari   Music: linktr.ee/joeypollari   Sponsors: Seed | Visit seed.com/ALMOST30 and use code ALMOST30 to redeem 30% off your first month of Seed's DS-01® Daily Synbiotic.  Jenni Kayne | Find your forever pieces at jennikayne.com and get 15% off your first order when you use code ALMOST30 at checkout.  Dreamland | Go to dreamlandbabyco.com and enter code ALMOST30 at checkout to receive 20% off sitewide + free shipping.  Dose | Get 15% off your first order, plus an additional 15% off if you subscribe for a monthly delivery!
