People often ask me “What’s the one piece of advice you’d give for people to have the best relationship possible?”

I dislike the paint by numbers approach because every relationship needs different things. It’s all so personalized. There is no magic bullet that will make sense for every recipient at any point in time. Different people need to hear different things for where they’re at.

But if there had to be one tip that I would say would benefit every relationship on the planet the most, it’d be this…

Tell the truth.

As in, tell the big, scary, revealing truth. Be absolutely authentic with your partner and tell them what’s going on inside your head more than you currently think you should.

Because it is only when we lay ourselves on the line and say “This is who I am, and this is what’s really going on for me” that we are able to access the kind of love that you see in movies.
