  • Most Listened to Episode of 2024 "Next Level Relationship Building"
    Jan 1 2025

    In this episode, we discuss the importance of the relationships between men and women. We talk about how focusing on one woman, being a student of her, and going on a journey of discovery together can lead to a more fulfilling relationship.

    Main Points

    Focus on one woman: Don't try to understand all women. Instead, focus on understanding the woman in your life. This will help you build a stronger relationship with her.

    Be a student of your woman: This means taking the time to get to know her for who she is as an individual. Pay attention to her likes, dislikes, and dreams.

    Relationships are a journey: Don't see your relationship as a destination. It's an adventure that you and your partner will embark on together. There will be ups and downs, but if you focus on learning from each other and growing together, your relationship will thrive.

    Outline

    Why understanding women is the wrong approach

    • All women are different
    • Focus on understanding your wife/girlfriend

    Keys to take relationships to the next level
