Bedtalks Relationship Podcast Ep. 28 – Love or Loyalty- Do They Go Hand in Hand?

K & I were recently watching a documentary, "I Called Him Morgan," on Netflix. We couldn't help but recognize the parallels of this tragic story about a Jazz Musician, Lee Morgan and what happens in relationships when love and loyalty are tested. It's clear by this documentary, the love Lee and Helen shared was genuine, but as their relationship experienced a shift, it had an irreparable impact on their relationship. Love and Loyalty are two important facets of a healthy relationship. But, sometimes one of these components, love or loyalty can diminish due to a change in circumstances, ...

Codependency Explained – 3 Signs ft. Elizabeth Overstreet and Mark Rosenfeld

Elizabeth Overstreet

Recently, I had an interview and discussion with Mark Rosenfeld, a Relationship Expert, about the topic of codependency. It's one of the dating and relationship advice questions Mark and I are asked about often.

You and I live in a world of instant gratification. Many things are readily available at the click of a button, the use of a credit card (instant pay via your phone) along with many other conveniences that life affords us. Sometimes instant gratification can be a good thing. However, in other times the beauty and joy in receiving something that you have worked hard for can come as a result of delayed gratification. Whether you are single, in a new relationship, or a more mature relationship sometimes delaying gratification is critical in having a relationship that is healthy, ful...

Elizabeth Overstreet

Do you have a type? Most of us do. Have you ever met someone who looked like they would be your type but once you got to know them, the opposite occurred? It's important to have an understanding of what you need, want, and desire in a partner. Finding someone who is compatible and recognizing someone who is an ideal partner isn't always easy.
