Choosing the Right Partner: The Green Flags That Matter
Manage episode 476380324 series 3590305
In this eye-opening episode of Crossroads & Conversations, your hosts Geeti and Komal continue their candid series on Building Healthy Relationships. After laying the foundation in part one—where we explored self-awareness, healing, and knowing what you bring to the table—we now dive into the million-dollar question: What should you really look for in a partner?
Forget the superficial checklists. We're talking about the real green flags—emotional intelligence, healthy conflict resolution, mutual respect, and the ability to grow together. We also tackle modern love, toxic family dynamics, the Instagram wedding craze, and why choosing a life partner should go way beyond just chemistry and common interests.
If you’ve ever asked yourself “Why isn’t this working?” or “Is this what love is supposed to feel like?”, this conversation is for you.
Whether you're dating, engaged, married, or somewhere in between, this episode is your guide to identifying what truly makes a relationship work—and what doesn’t.
Because life is about the conversations we have at the crossroads—the moments that shape us, connect us, and remind us of our shared humanity.
Our episodes will come out every first Wednesday of the month, we hope you will join us and our tribe.
