116 | Authentic Relating & Being with the Uncomfortable with Kendra Cunov
01/29/21 • 64 min
Finding intimacy with others begins with becoming intimate and honest with ourselves. In this episode with Kendra Cunov, we discuss the difficult habitual patterns we can get into as women seeking comfort and validation from our relationships.
After years of dating men who were not fully available to commit to partnership, Kendra decided to take a break from dating and men altogether. She knew this was what she needed to get to the bottom of what was having her stay in deeply unfulfilling dynamics. She made a commitment to get in right relationship with The Masculine, to figure out what she really wanted in a relationship, and to liberate her own desire to love and be loved.
Since then, she has worked with thousands of men, women & couples in the areas of embodiment, intimacy, and true self-expression. She also leads a program for women to embark upon a similar journey she went on, called The No-Man Diet.
In this conversation we also discuss the energetics behind our actions, and be sure to listen to the end because I love her response when asked, “What advice do you have for a woman feeling dissatisfied with her life right now?”
We hope you enjoy the show.
In this episode we discussed:
- Relating to self and the world and how Kendra was drawn to the world of truth-telling and relationships
- Kendra’s program, “The No Man Diet” and how she’s been helping women release addictive and unhealthy patterns in relationship to men
- Cultivating intuition and giving ourselves permission to listen to it
- The energetics behind our actions and why we sometimes say something that is received differently than we expected
- The journey of finding self worth and learning to value yourself
- Courage and how to live from a place of authentic self-expression
- Getting really honest with where you are at and the powerful words of wisdom Kendra has for women feeling dissatisfied in their lives
