It Only Takes One Person to Change a Relationship

This episode didn’t just stay with me—it embedded itself in my core. I didn’t realise how much I needed some of these truth bombs, but I really did, and I have a feeling most of us do. Naomi has a way of explaining things that opens doors to a much more peaceful life, one where relationships don’t just survive—they thrive.

Today, we’re diving into one of the most important aspects of belonging: our relationships. My guest, Naomi Stonier, is a Relationship Coach who helps people build deep, fulfilling connections by teaching the emotional skills many of us were never taught. Because when we feel truly seen and understood in our closest relationships, we create a powerful sense of belonging.

Naomi’s own journey—from feeling disconnected in relationships to thriving in them—proves that it only takes one person to change a relationship. In this conversation, we explore:

• Why the deepest relationships bring the greatest rewards and how to navigate their challenges
• How to balance the need for both certainty and excitement in relationships
• Why meeting your own needs first creates deeper, more authentic connections
• The powerful truth that we create our own emotions and how to shift them
• What belonging means in the context of relationships and how we can cultivate it
