Will talking about COVID-19 break the magic of your relationship? Should you talk with your partner and loved ones about how the pandemic is impacting you? Or is it better not to connect with your loved ones about this?
In this video I talk about what I think you deserve to be supported, and HOW to have that balance in your relationship with your loved ones to allow for connection and understanding AND disconnect from anxiety that Covid-19 and pandemic (news, changes, updates, anxieties) can bring.
