With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, love and relationships are a hot topic of conversation. Therefore, today we wanted to re-air a conversation with an expert in our space to hopefully help you identify some healthy habits we can begin implementing within our daily lives to cultivate the love we so desperately seek. Joining us again today is a Licensed Professional Counselor and nationally acclaimed speaker who specializes in relationship and marital issues as well as mental and emotional health, Debra Fileta. Debra is also the author of six books and host of the Love + Relationships Podcast where she is passionate about spreading the message that healthy people make healthy relationships. The truth is, we all have the innate longing or craving to be loved, to be accepted, or to feel like we belong, but unfortunately too many of us get into relationships for all the wrong reasons. However, as Debra reminds us today, we can’t come to the table “half-full”, expecting someone or something else to fill, fix, or complete us. We need to be the one’s taking our burdens, pasts, and toxic patterns to the Lord as well as implementing the steps necessary to cultivate healthy habits which generate healthy relationships. No matter what your relationship status says, this episode will remind, challenge, and push you to keep looking upward and inward before looking outward.
