Preparing for a hard conversation

Are you tired of relationships that start with promise but ultimately leave you feeling unfulfilled? Do you find yourself attracted to the same type of partner, only to discover fundamental incompatibilities months later? This workout guides you through a thoughtful exploration of what compatibility really means for you personally—beyond surface-level attraction or societal expectations.

What You'll Experience:

Through guided reflective exercises, you'll:

  • Envision your truest, most vibrant relationship—what it looks like, feels like, and what you would be doing together

  • Gain clarity with clear "must-haves," "nice-to-haves," and relationship "red flags"

  • Identify what makes you feel truly alive in a relationship across different dimensions

  • Discover the connection points that matter most to you: values, emotional compatibility, life goals, and communication style

  • Develop confidence in understanding and expressing your relationship needs

Workshop Details:

  • Equipment needed: A pen and notebook, comfortable space

  • Level of mental challenge: Medium

  • Mode of learning: Reflective

  • Level of vulnerability: 2 out of 5 (comfortable for most participants)
