“The biggest thread running through my own relationships, from 16 to now at 52, is the relationship I’ve had with myself.”

Lila Turner is back with a solo episode, and this time, she’s sharing something deeply personal - her brand-new book, Becoming Relationship Ready: Discovering a Radically New Way to Date. In this episode, she takes us behind the scenes of how the book came to be, from her early struggles with writing to realizing that she had to include her own story. With warmth, humor, and honesty, Lila reflects on the central theme of her book: the relationship we have with ourselves is the foundation for every other relationship in our lives.
