We've been told from an early age, there's 'The One' – that person who is our best friend, our soulmate, the person we belong with. But is that even realistic?

We think we're self aware, but are we? And why is this so essential for romantic relationships? We're chatting with Dr. Tasha Eurich about why it's so essential while dating (and having long-term relationships) to hone into our awareness of ourselves,others, and the impact we have on one another.
