Description

Do you expect your relationship to be a constant source of happiness and joy? Do you find yourself feeling discontent with your partner — or thinking that you might be happier with someone else? According to Dr. Marie Murphy, the key to true relationship satisfaction is recognizing that the only person who can make you happy is yourself. While there may be times when you feel annoyed or upset with your partner, you can choose to instead focus on emotions and aspects you enjoy about your relationship. As Dr. Murphy says, realizing that you’re in charge of your feelings can provide clarity, help you make better decisions, and lead to more fulfilling relationships. In this episode of Your Secret is Safe With Me, Dr. Marie Murphy talks about choosing your emotions in your relationships. Listen as Dr. Murphy talks about why you shouldn’t depend on your partner for happiness, the power of unintentional thoughts, and how to find clarity and make better decisions about your relationship status.
