Dr. Stanley Tatkin is a renowned expert in the fields of psychology and relationship therapy. Dr. Tatkin brings a wealth of knowledge about the dynamics of healthy relationships and the importance of mutual understanding and support.
In this conversation, Dr. Tatkin delves into the concept that there’s no such thing as a universally ‘healthy’ relationship; rather, it’s about what works for the individuals involved. He emphasizes the importance of purpose and principle in relationships, going beyond mere feelings to establish a solid foundation for partnership.
Dr. Tatkin and I explore the idea of focusing on the relationship you want, rather than just the person. He shares valuable insights on creating a list of attributes and values you seek in a relationship and the importance of aligning with a partner who shares your morals and ethics. This approach, he suggests, is more effective than simply seeking an idealized partner.
