John begin this call with a few questions to consider:

1) How do you attract the right person?
2) How do you attract the best out of the person you are with?

We don’t need each other in the ways we used to. So we are left to consider:

* What am I in relationship for?
* What do I want my relationship to be about?
* What do I want to create in the world through relating?
* Why am I in or seeking a relationship at all?
* What is driving it?
* What would make me valuable to a partner?
* Why would the person I crave be lit up and nourished by me every day?
* How do I keep this person?
* How do I inspire this person?

Participant questions:

Q1: We’ve been together for 5 months and just moved in with each other. I’m having trouble initiating intimacy. For me, there is not enough intimacy, not enough connection. For him, there is not enough freedom. What should we do?

Q2: I want to call in a masculine partner, I want to date, but my whole nervous system shuts down. I’m so freaked out and I freeze up at the thought of putting myself out there. How do I work with my fear?

Q3: My feminine parter and I are stuck in a dynamic where she wants me to lead, but when I do, she questions and challenges my leadership. How can we move through this?

Q4: Can you explain what you mean by masculine essence?

Q5: I have done a lot of work on myself over the past few years. Now I’m in a place where I don’t have a lot of drive in my life. I feel like I’m floating in the ocean without a lot of wind in my sails. I’m not sure what to do.

Q6: My partner (of 8 years) and I had a change in our living situation that is bringing up a lot of fear in me. I think this is my abandonment wound which I’m working on, but I’m wondering if you have any suggestions on how we can work with this.
