An online course on identifying your needs, finding the courage to speak up, and making requests that work (without looking needy)
It's time to speak up...
Are you scared that your loved ones will leave you if you start speaking and standing up for yourself?
Maybe you don't have the right words to ask for what you want and need, or aren't even sure what your needs are.
Or you feel guilty for making requests so instead, you stay quiet and suffer silently.
I want more for you than that. So much more.
If you struggle with identifying your needs, mustering up the courage to speak up for yourself, or if you just need the scripts and language to make requests easily and with confidence, this course is for you.
What if I told you there's a conversation standing between a good relationship and a great one?
In this course...
You'll learn to ask for more touch, attention, affection, space, support, quality time, or whatever need you need met. We'll address every love language throughout the course.
You'll gain skills to ask for respect at work or with family members. You'll learn how to turn down extra work, how to talk about unwanted behaviors (your needs for safety and security), or communicate when dating someone new.
Plus you'll walk away with specific language and scripts you can use to make requests with clarity and love that actually work.

MEET YOUR MENTOR
I’m Shaun Galanos, a speaker & coach helping people have better, more loving relationships.
Years before I made love my career, people brought their messy relationship issues to me: when to define the relationship, how to know if they like me, how to ask for what I need, etc.
Though I gave excellent relationship advice, I struggled to form healthy relationships. I fumbled through one after another, often bringing more pain and confusion than love and joy.
My struggle with healthy relationships and alcohol addiction brought me to therapy. For the first time, I found a therapist I connected with and began the journey to healing my fear of intimacy and my confusion about love.
My communication theory background came in handy when I started applying it to my relationships: It turns out that asking for what you want is the best way of getting what you want!
It sounds simple, yet it took time to learn how to do it, so I returned to my roots as a relationship-advice giver to teach others what I’d learned (and am still learning) about love, intimacy, and building healthy, loving relationships.
I’ve interviewed over 100 experts and thought leaders in love with The Love Drive podcast. I became certified as a rape crisis counselor to support women's healing journey after abuse. And I obtained coaching certifications to deepen my understanding of how to serve my clients best.
After thousands of happy students and hundreds of happy clients later, I'm starting to get the hang of it! (Though I'll always be a forever student of love.)
Opening yourself to love, learning to trust again, and building a big and beautiful love is not easy work, so I’ve created a space where we’ll do it together.
Let’s make sense of it all and give you the skills to communicate with love and ask for what you truly need in your relationships.
MORE STUDENT FEEDBACK
Amazed at how much clarity I gained in such a short amount of time. I trust this will be extremely helpful in navigating the beginnings of the new relationship I'm in, and confident that it will contribute to a more successful outcome than without these tools. Grateful!
- ASHLEY
This workshop has guided me to look inward to understand what I need and can expect from my relationships and what I'm willing to give to others. It has provided a framework that allows me to make requests and healthily express disappointment. It has also taught me how to say no without guilt or shame. Thank you, Shaun!
- RACHAEL
With kindness and warmth, Shaun imparted an incredible course on the challenging topic of getting your needs met. Not only have I learned something new, but I also shared a fun experience with kindred souls. I look forwards to put into practice what I've learned everyday.
- MAURICIO
I would recommend this course to anyone and everyone! Shaun provides actionable tools to help build better communication skills within each session. I feel like I'm stepping away more confident to identify and communicate my needs.
- SARAH
I left this 3rd session about boundaries and challenges with getting our needs met, feeling empowered to choose myself and my wellbeing above all else. I'm acquiring new tools to identify my needs and dealbreakers and to say no with love. Thank you, Shaun!
- LILIANA
This course serves content that meets you where you are. If you're sitting around thinking you're needy and want to figure out what to do with that, Shaun has answers for you. If you're looking to level up your communication in your relationship(s), he has a formula. I think anyone could benefit from this course in one way or another. 10/10 would take it again.
