Everything You Need to Know Before Your Next Relationship

What happens when your fear of losing someone becomes stronger than your fear of losing yourself?

Dr. Shefali is one of the world’s leading voices on conscious parenting—and this conversation goes far beyond parenting.

Before you marry someone or build a life together, there are some conversations you simply cannot afford to avoid. Love and chemistry are important, but they aren't enough to sustain a healthy, lasting relationship. In this episode, Jillian shares eight essential things to know before making a serious commitment, from trust and accountability to money, shared values, and navigating life's inevitable changes. Whether you're dating, engaged, or already in a long-term relationship, these are the conversations that could change your future together.

Love should never require you to abandon yourself. In this episode, Jillian explores the courage it takes to walk away from the wrong relationship, trust yourself again after heartbreak, and open your heart to the kind of love that feels safe, mutual, and real. Because choosing yourself doesn’t mean giving up on love—it means refusing to settle for anything less than a love that chooses you back.

What if the person you love is actually making you feel unsafe? Jillian answers listener questions about jealousy, controlling behavior, conflict, and betrayal—and shares how to recognize when insecurity becomes emotional abuse, stop sabotaging love during arguments, and finally let go of the anger keeping you tied to someone who hurt you.
