#393: It can be easy to lose parts of yourself, especially while you're in a relationship. If you've been in a relationship or currently in one, you probably know this well. Sometimes, you even start to focus on your partner and compare your life to theirs.

In this solo episode, Emily shares three practical ways to maintain your own sense of self while being in a relationship or dating in general. She talks about the importance of continuing to invest in your friendships, interests, goals, and alone time, while still creating space for a healthy partnership.

Whether you’re currently dating, in a long-term relationship, or simply want to approach your next relationship differently, this episode is a reminder that being a great partner doesn’t require losing your independence. The healthiest relationships should add to the life you’ve built, not become your entire life.

  • Simple ways to maintain your own identity and sense of self
  • Dangers of not having your own foundation and how that can lead to being controlled
