Creating Conscious Relationships

As we prepare to enter the new year, most people think about what they want to create — in our health, our work, and especially our relationships. Whether you’re single or partnered, getting clear on what really matters can make a big difference in how love feels. That’s why I chose to interview LaShawn McCrary, a conscious relationship coach who helps people clarify what they want and learn the skills to create healthier, happier love lives.

Creating Conscious Relationships is a bold, heart-led conversation about connecting with awareness. We explore how self-honesty, emotional responsibility, and spiritual maturity transform the way we connect—so relationships become a place of growth, truth, and real partnership.

Here’s what we cover in our interview:

• Why is it important to create a conscious relationship with yourself before you create one with your partner?
• How does not knowing yourself sabotage a relationship?
• What skills are important to keep a relationship thriving?
• Why are unspoken expectations dangerous? What is it important to clarify before you invest your time and energy? 
• How can conflict to create an opening for intimacy instead of distance between partners?
