We all have natural needs for connection, love, and support—those are healthy. But when we feel like those needs aren’t being met, we often crave reassurance, cling to others, or avoid taking risks in relationships.
This craving—whether it’s for more validation, attention, or security—keeps us trapped in patterns of suffering.
But what if we could start feeling that many of our needs are already being met, right here, right now? When we realize that we already have enough connection, love, and worth, we can stop chasing after more and start feeling peace in our relationships.
In this talk, I share practical ways to build inner strengths—like patience, empathy, and self-worth—so we can show up fully in our relationships without that constant craving for more. By recognizing when our needs are already met, we create space for more love and less suffering.
I also offered a meditation on Trusting the Heart, which is helpful if you’re feeling disconnected, emotionally overwhelmed, or struggling with self-worth in your relationships. By tapping into a sense of basic goodness, love, and open-heartedness that is already within you, you can quiet the mind and nurture feelings of warmth, compassion, and kindness — both toward yourself and others.
I hope you find both helpful.
