#22 - How To Create Your Own Relationship Standards

Welcome back to The Conscious Couples Podcast with your hosts and real-life couple, Emilia Smith and Alan Lazaros. Today they share how you can create your standards for a potential relationship. When some people think of relationship standards, they jump straight to “the list” of things they want in a partner. The list of attributes you want in a romantic partner is not the same as the standards you set for a relationship. Relationship standards reflect the standards you set for yourself and what you think you are worthy of when looking for love.
