This episode is brought to you by Birch Living, Bioptimizers, and Cozy Earth. As human beings, relationships are fundamental to who we are. We know that relationships can be a significant source of happiness and fulfillment in our lives, but they can also be a major source of stress. So, why is it that we often find relationships so hard? This week on the Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru we are rerunning one of our favorite episodes with Esther Perel to talk about how we can begin to navigate roles, expectations, and flexibility in our relationships, how we are under pressure not only to have the perfect relationship, but also to portray this illusion to others, and why so many couples get it wrong when trying to solve differences. Esther Perel is a psychotherapist recognized as one of today’s most insightful and original voices on modern relationships. Her bestselling books, Mating in Captivity and The State of Affairs are global phenomena translated into nearly 30 languages.
