Ken Page: Respect Your Gifts to Find Real Love | Simplify Podcast

Are you single-or in a relationship-and keep falling for people who almost love you right, but not quite? There's a reason why that happens, and Ken Page has figured out the formula behind these deeper physics of dating.
Ken is a psychotherapist specialized in the search for intimacy, and author of the book Deeper Dating: How to Drop the Games of Seduction and Discover the Power of Intimacy (www.blinkist.com/en/nc/browse... /deeper-dating-en).
In this episode, Ken explains why the parts of you that you're most embarrassed about-that you try to hide by being cool, low maintenance, or extra accommodating-are actually your most valuable gifts that will lead you to finding and keeping real intimacy. He also reveals what he considers to be the single biggest saboteur of healthy love, and talks about different ways in which we filee intimacy without being aware of it.
Whether single or in a relationship, this episode is for everyone who wants to foster their skills of intimacy, and deepen their bonds with themselves and others.
