Create Your Own Love Map

Libby Sinback is a coach, sought-after educator, and host of the podcast, Making Polyamory Work. Libby helps individuals, couples, and polycules who want to break out of harmful relationship patterns and rewrite their broken scripts from childhood and culture to embrace nourishing, authentic, boundless love in their life. Libby is trained in Relational Life Therapy and the Gottman Method, and her coaching is laser-focused on getting quickly to the heart of the heart of the heart of what is in the way for her clients, and so they can move past what is limiting them and into a more relational way of being. Libby believes love is why we are here and how we heal, and that relationships are at the core of our wellbeing as humans.

Libby Sinback

According to the research of John and Julie Gottman, people in successful relationships are intimately familiar with each other’s worlds and how they work. They remember the major events in each other’s histories, they understand their parter's triggers, patterns, turn-ons and turn offs, and they keep updating their information as the facts and feelings of their partner's world change. They know their partner's temperament, fears, hopes and dreams.
But how can your partner know these things about you? While the Gottmans believe this knowledge is created together in the context of a relationship, often, it starts with self-knowledge. Yes, a partner can learn things about you through observation over time. But a lot of what they learn is also what you tell them, and how you explain and interpret your behavior and choices. And if you aren't able to tell your partner how you work, what you need and what you dream about, it will be a lot of trial and error to figure out how to understand and take care of one another.
One powerful tool to help with this self-knowledge is to map out who you are in relationships. Some people have called a "personal user manual" or "operating instructions." The Gottmans use the term "love map."
In this workshop, through a series of guided exercises, we will create a map of ourselves so that we might become more intimately acquainted with ourselves, and so that we might share this map with others in our life.
