Summary

You may have an idea of your perfect partner—the person who feels like the missing piece you’ve been searching for. When you finally meet someone who appears to tick all your boxes, you tell yourself, “This is it—the search is over!” 

But is that really what makes someone right for you? What if that person rejects you? In this episode, I show the TRUTH about compatibility in a relationship and what really makes someone “The One,” so that you never obsess over the wrong person again.

Choosing a life partner might be one of the most high stakes decisions we ever make in our lives.

0:10.0

The right partner can mean the difference between ending up happy or traumatized, healthy or unhealthy, financially stable or unstable, confident about ourselves, or highly insecure. When we meet

someone romantically, they have the potential to amplify and add to all of the good in our

lives or slowly poison it. So today, I don't want to talk about the generic qualities that make

someone a good partner, like kindness, loyalty, or the ability to be a proactive

going to help you spot the right person for you when you see them.

0:55.5

It's also going to hold a very important key to overcoming rejections that your confidence may have

1:59.4

sexy, ambitious and able to have a good time and be playful,

confident and humble. Whatever the exact cocktail of this person's personality, it's pretty
