KEY TAKEAWAYS


Men and women often communicate and interpret messages differently. Men may not realise that their words or lack of words can hurt a woman's feelings, while women may not understand how their words can come off as disrespectful to men.


Taking responsibility for one's actions and understanding how they affect a partner is crucial in relationships. Acknowledging that unintentional actions can still cause harm is a significant step toward improving communication and connection.


A willingness to learn and understand the opposite gender can lead to healthier relationships. Curiosity about each other's experiences and feelings can help bridge the gap in understanding and foster deeper connections.


Societal narratives often portray men negatively, leading to distrust and defensiveness. 


Both men and women must find a balance between their masculine and feminine energies. Embracing femininity does not equate to weakness.



BEST MOMENTS

"He was a professional dancer for 15 years. And so he was living my dream of dancing with Michael Jackson and Prince and Paula Abdul"

"Because when family falls apart, society falls apart. Look what's out there. So everything that's been pushed the past 50 years has gotten to a disastrous place when it comes to culture and family systems that hold everything together."

"The words that you use to disrespect us would not disrespect you. So the same blind spot that we have on both sides, we don't understand hurting your feelings, we don't understand respect."
