Stating your Needs and The Butt Pucker Zone With Bex Burton

Sherry and Carla start out with some pillow talk and then take a Love Fix question from a listener who is frustrated at the lack of consistency they get around their partner listening and showing that they care. They then welcome Bex Burton, a trauma-informed certified life coach, helping independent women attract and grow lasting love without sacrificing who they are or what they want out of life. After painfully hitting the same walls and love for over a decade, Beck is committed to the study and growth of lasting love today, and she enjoys a deeply connected partnership for 11 years with the man of her dreams.   Connect with Us!

So, how does one lose themselves and how do they find themselves again?  The balance between healthy space and healthy closeness in a relationship.   How do we know when we’ve lost ourselves in a relationship? How does someone start to carve out their own individuality and their own authentic self? It’s not bad to have needs, in fact, that’s what makes us human.  What is the “butt pucker zone”?  More from Bex’s work at Bex Burton Coaching, along with how to work with Sherry and Carla on overcoming codependency, dating, break-ups, healing from toxic relationships, and gaining confidence.   Disclaimer: The Love Fix Podcast content has been made available for informational, entertainment, and educational purposes only.
