Friday Jan 31, 2025
Friday Jan 31, 2025
This week, we're diving into a topic that will forever change the way you approach relationships: Emotional Bank Accounts - Deposits and Withdrawals.
Evey interaction we share with others is an opportunity to either strengthen or strain our connections. Just like a financial account, emotional accounts require consistent deposits of trust, empathy, and care to flourish, while unchecked withdrawals can lead to imbalance, resentment, or even emotional bankruptcy.
Whispers, make sure you bring your proverbial keychains, so you can collect all your master keys that will allow you to open all the hallways, corridor, and secret compartments of your heart and mind.
Join Sonya Live Every Friday, at 3:00 PM EST right here on PodBean for another powerful discussion.
