KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Talking about taboo subjects usually means talking about the things you’re scared to discuss. Whatever it is you want to talk about, if you really trust your partner, be courageous enough to just share or ask!
- When your audience are able to discuss their situations and issues from the safety of anonymity, they are far more likely to be candid and honest. They get to the real nitty-gritty much sooner.
- People often mistake talking for communication, when in fact, talking is only one form of communication. Women tend to use it more to communicate, but men communicate more in many other non-verbal ways.
- It’s important to remember that we need to act with gratitude and appreciation towards our long term partners. We sometimes lose sight of this way of being that happens all the time at the beginning, but tends to drift away as the relationship progresses.
- Men are used to constantly competing with each other, especially in the workplace. As women’s roles in the workplace have grown, they too have been influenced to compete, which means they are unconsciously slipping into their masculine energy, which isn't attractive to men.
- In Troy’s opinion, there’s nothing more attractive to a man than a woman who is secure in feminine energy and allows him to be the man.
- Men often respond to being hurt by shutting down. By becoming stoic and silent. The best way to bring him out of this is by a woman using the power of her femininity.
