Believe it or not, not all loving couples we see on social media are putting up a “highlight reel!”
Some of us truly love, value, and cherish each other and have a whole lot of fun doing it even amidst the shit of the relationship.
I want to talk about relationships from the #HugYourChaos perspective.
Because that’s the thing…. relationships do take work! They aren’t all rainbows, love, and butterflies. There are ups and there are downs but when you’re conscious and committed to yourself AND your path together, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE FOR YOU.
Relationships are our biggest mirror. They are the brightest light into where we need to do some work. If you’re not willing to see that than you will project and blame the other person for everything.
If you’re willing to see that then there is room for growth.
We have a very conscious relationship. It’s full of growth, love, support, debates, and arguments because we are two people with two different perspectives.
We work together, travel together, grow together, and take on the world together.
The key to our success is conscious and open communication, dedication to each other, and love.
We support one another but it is not a need. It’s a byproduct of supporting ourselves first.
This is not unique to us! We had to learn it too and it was a shitshow early on.
It’s time for us to elevate our approach to our relationships. It’s time to bring teamwork and badassery into our relationships.
It’s time to re-wild our relationships because they aren’t meant to be the place where we just exist!
Who’s ready for the #consciouscouplerevolution? ??????????????
Shout it out below! Join us! This is how we change the world.

I’m curious if you’ve ever considered joining the Elephant Academy? I can tell from your writing that you have a lot of energy to share. I would have enjoyed you going a couple of steps further into conscious coupling, and how a couple not practicing this could take a small step toward incorporating it.

    Yes, I agree with Amanda’s thoughtful request. Great topic! Keep going. More specifics please!

    Hi Amanda! I actually went through EA 3 years ago and it changed my life. This was just my first Elephant Now post and I was sort of testing the waters. I appreciate the feedback though <3
