The Actress Says Healing After Divorce Helped Her Find Love Again
Tia Mowry revealed finding emotional safety is her biggest priority.
Mowry also revealed that finding Williams wasn't something she rushed into following her split from ex-husband Cory Hardrict. Instead, she focused on herself before dating again.
"I manifested this," she explained, recalling advice from a friend to write down the qualities she wanted in a future partner while listening to music and lighting candles.
Looking back, the actress admitted she wouldn't have known what she truly wanted several years earlier.
"And I'm glad that it came around the time that it did because I really wouldn’t have known what I wanted three years ago," Mowry said.
She added, "I really needed to sit in, like, solitude and, like, learn who I am first, um, before I even figured out what it, what it was and what it is that I want."

Tia Mowry said meditation and visualization helped her manifest the relationship she wanted.
Mowry also credited meditation, visualization, and her interest in neuroscience, saying, "I’m a huge believer in, like, uh, neuroscience."
She believes those practices helped her find the right relationship. "And the feeling was my nervous system being safe," she explained.
According to the 47-year-old, Williams has brought the emotional security she always wanted from a partner.
"And that’s exactly what he does. Like, he is… He's amazing. Like, he’s so wonderful," Mowry said.
