I'm your host, Karin Calde. I'll talk with people about how we can strengthen our relationships, explore who we are in those relationships, and experience a greater sense of love and connection with those around us, including ourselves. I have a PhD in clinical Psychology, practiced as a psychologist resident, and after diving into my own healing work, I went back to school and became a coach, helping individuals and couples with their relationships and personal growth. If you want to experience more love in your life and contribute to healing the disconnect so prevalent in our world today, you're in the right place. Welcome to Love Is Us. Episode: Karin: Welcome, Amrit. [01:43] Amrit: Thanks for having me. [01:44] Karin: Yeah, I'm glad we could make this happen. I know we had to reschedule once, but glad we could finally get it done. So tell us where you are in the world. [01:53] Amrit: I'm in Mexico, near Mexico City, up in the mountains. 6000ft with beautiful spring weather all year round. So it's like beautiful 75 degrees all year. It's perfect place to live. Highly recommend it to move to Mexico. [02:12] Karin: I tell you, that is so tempting. As someone who's just been through a horrible winter in Portland, Oregon and the US, that sounds awfully tempting. Yes. So tell me what brought you there because I know that you are quite the international traveler. [02:31] Amrit: Yeah, my wife is mexican and she left Mexico when she was 17 and never really been back to live here. And that was always one of her dreams for her kids to experience that and to just be in the culture here in Mexico. And it's so different. Right? So we lived in India for 20 years and that was certainly different. And then after we left India, we went to Germany because we're like, okay, we got the whole world open. What are we going to do? For some reason we thought Germany would be nice. We went there in the summer, which is one of the things. It was beautiful and everything so lush. And she very quickly realized that she was missing this close connection of friends and community and the open hearts. And then Covid hit and just made everything worse. And so the first moment we had a chance, we packed up and ran. [03:26] Karin: And you've got two. So that really was an adjustment. It was very. Right? [03:32] Amrit: Yeah. Oh, was huge. I mean, the shift between India and Germany was already massive. And then to come to Mexico was just another level to, you know, fun and bet. [03:46] Karin: I bet. So tell us what you do for work. [03:50] Amrit: I'm a life coach, and I focus on working with men who are struggling in their marriages because I found that so many of my individual clients who were men were saying, like, oh, I'm doing great with this and that I'm doing good in my health, I'm doing good in my business. But the one thing which I just can't figure out is how to get along with my wife. And I love her. We've been together for 20 years, but I'm seeing this drift apart. And so I did a lot of work one on one with my male clients on that, and it changed their lives because it was just so profound to have some simple tools on how to communicate, do some things you would never do if you were married to another guy, but if you're married to a woman, so you do some other things.
