As we approach the new year, our attention naturally turns to our aspirations for the coming year. While I usually keep these thoughts to myself, this year I've decided to share my plans as a way to hold myself accountable and hopefully inspire others to join me on this journey.

At the end of 2023, I successfully launched the My Kin app with a vision to ignite a movement. In 2024, I am committed to turning that vision into a reality. While writing my book, "The Balanced Relationship Blueprint," it became clear that we needed more than just words on a page. We needed a community—a place where like-minded individuals could come together, connecting with others who share the same beliefs and values. Together, we can make the necessary changes for our personal growth and evolution.

In today's fast-paced world, filled with constant notifications, busy schedules, and competing priorities, it's all too easy for couples to drift apart. Although the modern world has brought numerous advantages, it has also presented unique challenges to relationships. The initial spark of love often fades amidst the monotony of daily tasks and digital distractions. When we add children and external pressures from work and societal expectations into the mix, it's no wonder that many couples find themselves unfulfilled, and in some cases, even contemplating leaving their relationships in search of a deeper connection.

Drawing from my experience as a relationship and family coach, as well as my previous work as a corporate performance coach, I have gained invaluable insights into human connections, emotions, needs, and desires. Through working with countless couples on the verge of separation, as well as those navigating divorce or remarriage, I've come to realise that we all fundamentally seek the same thing: love, being loved, and happiness. To quote the great Tony Robbins, "The quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives." We are all in search of that extraordinary love that elevates us, a partner with whom we can create and share a beautiful life.

As emotionally intelligent beings, our primal need for love and connection remains unwavering. While our surroundings, lifestyles, and challenges have evolved, the essential needs of the human heart—to be loved, understood, and cherished—have remained constant.

Today, we have the incredible benefit of technology, which enables instant connections with people across the globe. Paradoxically, however, we find ourselves more stressed, lonely, and self-critical than ever before. We become consumed with trying to keep up with everyone else, making unhealthy comparisons to the seemingly perfect lives we see on social media, and often neglecting our own well-being. This constant pursuit of the unattainable leaves us feeling inadequate.

In my experience, most couples face similar challenges and problems: lack of communication, intimacy, and time. Coupled with the increasing social pressure to have it all, these issues, if left unaddressed, can create significant divides in relationships, leading to unhappiness, toxic behaviour, and ultimately, separation. But the problem doesn't stop there; this behaviour sets an unhealthy perception of love for the next generation. We are all products of our environment, and our childhood conditioning shapes our subconscious, which in turn governs our adult lives. If we cannot create deep, meaningful, and joyful relationships today, we risk perpetuating the same patterns for future generations.

As a child of divorce and a divorcee myself, I intimately understand the pain and lasting damage that toxic relationships can inflict on families and future generations. It is my personal journey of self-discovery and my innate need for understanding that propelled me to delve into human needs psychology, relationship dynamics, and behaviour. Identifying the problem was one thing, but solving it required more.

This realization inspired me to write my book, "The Balanced Relationship Blueprint," which delves into the theory behind building fulfilling relationships. However, theory alone wasn't enough. I recognized the need to provide practical steps, tools, and rituals to guide couples and families towards deep connection and fulfilment. That's why I created the Balanced Relationship Blueprint Course, which encompasses all the essential rituals, exercises, and steps to help individuals achieve the profound connection and fulfilling relationships they desire.

But my eagerness to make a difference wouldn't allow me to stop there. I yearned to do more. I aspired to create a movement. And so, the My Kin app was born—a community of like-minded individuals who prioritize their relationships and strive to create a beautiful life for themselves and their loved ones. It's a space for conscious lovers and parents who are determined to improve themselves and their relationships in today's fast-paced world. By understanding our human conditioning and learning to adapt and thrive, we can truly flourish.
