Most loving relationships fail, not because of communication or empathy breakdown, but because we unknowingly burden our partner with the task of caring for disowned and unloved parts of ourselves, our 'internal family'.

You Are the One You've Been Waiting For will equip you with the essential tools needed to build trust and connection with the one you love.
