Liberated Love: Release Codependent Patterns and Create the Love You Desire

Relationship experts, podcasters, and partners Groves and McBeath write a book to help readers redefine love and break down modern barriers and codependent patterns to cultivate happy, liberated relationships. Groves and McBeath reveal the challenges they faced when starting “Relationship 1.0,” which ultimately led to their breakup, and then the individual work that they had to put in during the “Sacred Pause” before they could start fresh in what they now call “Relationship 2.0.” Both of them, transparent in their own shortcomings, worked individually to unlearn toxic behaviors that were creating barriers in their ability to have a long-term, healthy relationship with each other. Their guide, through the three steps (Relationship 1.0, Sacred Pause, and Relationship 2.0), encourages self-love, self-learning, and the importance of understanding and taking ownership of one’s own shortcomings in order to fully connect and make oneself available to a partner.
