Ever wonder why some relationships drain you while others help you grow?
In this episode of the Wellness Revolution podcast, I am joined by Dr. Jade Teta who challenges the Hollywood notion of "you complete me" and introduces a revolutionary approach to love - one where relationships are meant to grow you, not complete you.
We dive into how our childhood patterns shape our romantic relationships and why understanding these patterns is crucial for both personal development and lasting love. We also discuss why your metabolism and relationship struggles might be more connected than you think, how to tell if you're trying to "fix" versus truly growing with your partner, and the surprising way pain can point you toward your authentic purpose.
Dr. Jade Teta is an integrative physician, author, and personal development expert who uniquely combines his biochemistry background with naturopathic medicine to help people optimize their metabolism and transform their lives. With over 25 years of experience as a personal trainer and practitioner, he has developed a distinctive approach to health that integrates conventional and alternative methods, specializing in integrative endocrinology and complex metabolic cases. Beyond his medical expertise, he holds numerous life coaching certifications, has extensive experience in couples counseling, and is the author of “You Grow Me.”

Key Takeaways:
Childhood development and mother patterns have a significant impact on romantic relationships and personal growth.
The dynamics of romantic partnerships involve the individual, the partner, and the entity created by their relationship, and understanding this dynamic is crucial for personal growth and relationship development. Authenticity in relationships involves being true to one's best next level human self and seeking a partnership that supports personal growth.
Romantic relationships should focus on growth, depth, and mutual support, rather than convenience or safety.
