I got to thinking the other day—probably because I have too much time on my hands—that an intimate relationship is a lot like owning a car.

There are 3 major phases when owning a car. There’s the purchase phase, the maintenance phase and the selling phase. If you want a good experience with a car, you need to know how to navigate each of those phases, right?

It’s the same with a relationship. There’s the “purchase phase” (meeting, dating and committing), there’s the “maintenance phase” (keeping the relationship running smoothly) and there’s the “ditching phase,” (it’s a lemon, it doesn’t run anymore, time to take the bus.)

Every intimate relationship goes through these phases and it’s important that we know how to navigate each of them—and that’s what this 3-part podcast series is all about.

In this episode, the “purchase phase” is explored. What you will learn is if a relationship has 4 specific “features,” you should “sign on the dotted line” and drive that “car” off the lot.

Don’t miss this playful, insightful episode.
