36. 5 Stages to Deepen Intimacy
This episode goes deeper into the topic of the stages of long-term relationships. Let's dive into the different levels of intimacy we experience as we grow deeper into love: 0:00 5 Stages of a Relationship :55 Honeymoon Stage = Physical intimacy 1:55 Power Struggle = Emotional intimacy 10:35 Stability = Mental Intimacy 12:25 Commitment = Playful Intimacy 14:10 Bliss = Spiritual Intimacy Relationships aren’t a linear path - rather a cyclical evolution into rising together as we ebb and flow through life. But these phases are important to understand as we grow deeper into love - because every relationship will inevitably go through these stages at least once if they commit to the journey of conscious partnership. Our most intimate relationships are vessels for deeper healing + accessing higher levels of consciousness. When we are committed to the path, we can experience magical, soul aligned, blissful love with another human. Hope you enjoyed this video!

This episode is an incredible listen for my anxious ladies who want to rewrite their patterns and find everlasting love.
Eve Tilley is a lawyer by trade, but after sharing her dating struggles on TikTok, she is now the Founder of The Arrow.
The Arrow is a platform to find true love. You set a bounty to meet the love of your life through matchmakers or a friend of a friend. If you meet someone you love, your matchmaker makes money for setting you two up when you engaged or hit the 2-year relationship milestone!
Best case scenario? You find your true love. Worst case scenario? You go on some fun dates with interesting people! No harm, no foul.
In this week's episode we go deep into Eve's dating history, her lessons learned and how she is now going with the flow to finding love. Tune in to heal, learn + grow!
- How to prep during your single era to attract your partner
- Heal your anxiety by slowing down as you are getting to know someone new and let things unfold naturally (easier said than done!)
- Why the media portrays the lonely male epidemic but the truth is that both men + women are lonely
- How our expectations have increased because of the apps but not in a good way and the solution to this problem (get out of your comfort zone + try something new!)
- And maybe learn HOW to date before going on a date
- How to slow down while dating and not rush for a label if we’re genuinely interested in a life long commitment
- What Eve was looking for in her 20s and how that’s shifted in her 30s
- Not letting the ego take over when you get ghosted and not making it all about you but allowing the feeling to bring up what it is asking you to heal
- How to let our man provide without sacrificing our ambitious dreams and goals
- Finding healthier coping mechanisms so we can begin to break free from our toxic patterns and begin healing
& SO MUCH MORE.

13: Surrender into your feminine energy
Do you crave a life of peace and ease? Maybe you're ready to tap into your feminine energy.
Feminine and Masculine energies are buzzing all over the internet, but what does it actually mean to be in your feminine energy? It does not mean to sit back and wait for things to magically happen or flow into your life. It does mean getting radically honest about your life, taking accountability for your emotions and taking inventory on what works vs what doesn't so you can create space for more magic to flow into your life. It means you become consciously aware of all the signs around you because you create a relationship with Source directly. It means you listen to your intuition over societal standards. It means you lead with your heart in everything you do, spreading positive love energy everywhere you go. Which makes you a magnet for all the people, places and things that you desire.
Being in your feminine energy gives you the power to choose. Choose how you wish to create your life because you open up to a realm of unlimited possibilities.
If you're curious to learn more about feminine energy or the slow life, tune into this episode!

12: Understanding Emotional Maturity and how it Affects your Relationships
Today's episode is all about Emotional Maturity.
What is it, why do we need it and how can we increase our emotional maturity.
Emotional Maturity is the root of any healthy relationships, whether romantic or platonic. It allows us to connect deeper with ourselves so we can connect deeper with others. Emotional Immaturity creates disconnection and miscommunication, while Emotional Maturity creates honesty and intimacy.
3 reasons Emotional Maturity is so crucial in relationships:
1. Effective Communication
2. Empathy
3. Stress Management
5 ways to cultivate Emotional Maturity:
1. Self Awareness
2. Accountability
3. Communication
4. Empathy
5. Self Care
Emotional Maturity is an ongoing practice and something we need to prioritize in our daily life so we can regulate our nervous systems and not project our wounds and fears onto others. It's an excellent way to connect with our body and nurture our inner child's needs and desires.

010: 5 Stages of Long Term Relationships
Did you know there are 5 stages in long-term relationships?
Many people have heard of the Honeymoon stage and a few have heard of the Power Struggle, but there are a total of 5 stages of long-term relationships. This episode dives into each stage and helps couples identify which stage they may be in with strategies to keep their relationship moving forward.
Most couples break up during the power struggle and repeat the same cycles and patterns in all of their future relationships. But when you become consciously aware that relationships are meant to trigger us and choose to be in a conscious partnership, you can work on your emotional baggage individually and together to evolve past this phase and eventually into the final stage of Bliss.
5 Stages:
1. Honeymoon
2. Power Struggle
3. Stability
4. Commitment
5. Bliss
And remember, this isn't a one-way evolution. Many relationships will ebb and flow between these 5 stages at various stages in their relationship. Don't be discouraged because there are extremely valuable lessons to learn in each stage so you can evolve further and higher into your human & spiritual evolution together, hand in hand.

009: Setting boundaries for a healthy relationship
Do you know boundaries aren't just to keep people away - but they also help us connect deeper with the people we love?
We've all heard the buzz word, but many of us don't exactly know what boundaries are and aren't. In this episode, host Sana Akhand chats about how to set healthy boundaries within your marriage or long term relationship so you can both get to know each other better and love each other deeper.
Boundaries are helpful ways to let people know how we want to be loved and how we need to refill our own cups so we can be our best selves for the people we love. They allow us to understand our partners better and give each other a sense of autonomy to be who we authentically are without feeling offended or insecure when our partners want some alone time.
We also chat about setting boundaries with friends and family to protect your relationship.
Tune in to learn all about healthy boundary setting so you and your partner can thrive in love.

008: Breaking free from Codependency to Cultivate a Sense of Self
Let's talk about codependency. What it is, how it shows up even in the healthiest relationships and why we should be aware of our codependent tendencies if we want to thrive in healthy, conscious partnerships.
Codependency is when one or both partners in a relationship rely heavily on the other for their sense of self-worth, identity, and emotional well-being. This can lead to an unhealthy cycle of relying on each other for validation and losing sight of one's individuality.
When we are codependent, we are relying on external factors for our happiness and worthiness. This makes us lose our connection to our inner power and leads to burn out or resentment within relationships. If you truly want to thrive in a relationship that has passion, intimacy and deep connection, it starts with cultivating your inner confidence and connecting with your authentic self so you can show up as a rooted, grounded whole person with your own hobbies and interests.

007: Do you know your attachment style?
In this episode we learn about attachment theory and the three most common attachment styles. Tune in to learn if you have an anxious, avoidant or secure attachment style and how identifying your attachment style is step one to your self discovery journey. Once you know why you have a certain attachment style, you can then begin healing and moving towards a more secure attachment style, which is incredibly helpful if you want to thrive in love.
Host Sana Akhand, intuitive love coach helps ambitious women identify their attachment style so they can begin the journey to secure attachment and attract a secure partner. She helps women find and keep healthy love so they can thrive in love & life.
Attachment Theory is a psychological framework that explores how our early experiences with caregivers shape our emotional bonds and relationship patterns as adults. It was originally proposed by psychologist John Bowlby, and it helps us understand how we relate to our partners and the people around us.

005: Your past wounds will sabotage your greatest love story
In this episode we go deep into the world of shadow work and how trauma can get stored in our body even if we've done the therapy & journaling work. Host Sana Akhand, intuitive love coach, discusses how somatic healing modalities and cleansing of the 7 chakras is imperative if we truly want to feel free from our past wounds. Tune in to learn why talk therapy isn't enough and there is a deeper layer to healing that can truly only happen while in healthy relationships.
Ever feel like you don't have control over your emotions? Do you cry easily or get triggered and overreact? There's nothing wrong with you, you simply may have some past wounds built up inside of you that need your attention. The proportion of your reaction should match the reality of the situation. You're allowed to get upset with your partner, but if it blows up to a "YOU ALWAYS DO THIS" or "YOU NEVER LISTEN TO ME" these are signs that you have deeper wounds to heal.
Conflict in healthy relationships are normal, but they usually don't escalate to definitive language or disrespect. That's when disconnection happens and you fall into survival mode within your relationships. If you want to truly thrive in love & life, let's explore why you're getting triggered and clear out those blocks so you can understand yourself deeper and connect more easily with your partner.
