3:40 It just works - here’s why
3:57 We hear through the filters over our ears
4:30 The costs of the distortion
5:23 Why “feeling heard” is so important
7:10 “I will not try to change you”.

“Just moving on '' after the worst of the pandemic poses major risks to our quality of life and capacity to connect.

In the moments when your feelings are bigger than you can handle, it’s important to have options. In this show, I share three “go to” principles to practice both when you most need it and especially in the times when you don’t.

2:13 You have to notice where you are in order to change it
2:55 Tracking in low stakes moments

1:15 My friend Dina and her new, hot and heavy relationship
2:07 There’s a catch.

You can spend your life focusing on what you don't want and criticizing the people who want to help you. Or you can get oh-so-turned on about the best two minutes of your life. You decide.
1:40 The negativity bias saves us time and again
3:00 But it undermines us in love
3:40 Quote by Dr. Rick Hansen to help understand this sticky phenomenon
4:28 Consider this the “off” switch for the negativity bias
5:42 Imagine this scenario of pleasure, heat and desire building...and then.

7:50 Instead of your default response, try this.

Without knowing what you want, you will have a very hard time getting it. In this episode, I explore how to clear the channel between you and the voice of what you want so that you can hear the animal of your desire.
1:05 In order to ask for it, you have to have a clue about what you want
2:55 Your desires may be muted under messages about what you “should” want
3:10 Think of your desire like an animal
3:43 Her appetite is not stirred when you fake it

In this episode, I introduce two principles for growing community that I have learned from my years of starting groups. In this era of prolonged social isolation, it’s revolutionary to still find ways to gather. I invite you to get your hands dirty with me and try.
1:21 My parents first showed me how to grow community
2:25 Community is not incidental to our lives – it is our lives.
2:58 We create community in order to learn and address what we need.
3:31 The first principle of growing community
4:23 Frederick Buechner quote
4:44 The second principle for growing community
5:21 Agreements are a net catching us in groups
5:43 Examples of agreements specific to one group’s needs
7:22 Be willing to get messy and learn along the way.

Individual therapy is important. But it will never alone fill the needs that community so powerfully meets. We need the village more than ever. In this episode I explain how being a part of a healthy community, in addition to doing your personal work, is key for activating our blueprint for health.

2:00 How engaging in personal work can feel overwhelming
2:48 This conviction keeps me going even when change isn’t visible

4:10 How community can deliver what’s needed
5:15 Saying to the pain, “You are at last outnumbered”.
5:52 One therapist or coach can never be the village

Most people never learned why talking matters in our love making. In this episode, I explain how words in bed are the road signs orienting you for the journey and teach you three different forms of communication you can use to connect to your partner during your sex.
1:55 The majority of people learned about sex this way
3:05 Sex without words is not how real sex looks
4:03 Talking to one another in bed serves an essential purpose
4:48 Silence in sex is like driving without road signs
5:27 It doesn’t make you bad, just uninformed
5:38 Three ways to communicate during sex
5:59 Name what you are feeling in your body
7:02 Ask for what you want in a way your partner can hear
8:14 Make a simple, singular offer
8:40 Examples of questions not to ask in bed

Everyone gets triggered. What makes the difference between constant breakdown and healthy relating is what you tell yourself and how you mend. In this episode, I invite you to bring compassion to your triggers so you can learn from and heal these moments.
1:30 The pitfall of resolutions
2:24 How we fall prey to the shame monster
3:30 Here’s the actual problem – it’s not what you think
4:38 What you do after the trigger is what makes the difference.
5:08 From Triggered to Tranquil by Dr. Campbell outlines the steps
5:23 How we resist the shame
6:43 My husband and I dug into the cleanup recently
7:26 The “next frontier” rather than a resolution
7:55 Healthy intimacy actually needs friction
8:57 This week’s homework
Resources: Find From Triggered to Tranquil by Dr. Susan Campbell here: https://susancampbell.com/product/from-triggered-to-tranquil/. Of note, though some amount of friction is important for authentic intimacy, too much friction is not a good thing for your nervous system or your relationship. It likely means one or both of you need additional help to heal whatever is being revealed. If you find yourself in this situation, please consider seeking professional counseling to aid in your process.

Note: All bodies are different, and no sexual guidance is ever a one-size-fits-all solution, including what I reference in this episode. This show is an introduction to what I teach couples and by no means meant to suggest that resolving sexual dysfunction or relationship challenges due to sex is easy. If you have questions about your sex life and want a tailored consultation for you and your partner, please reach out to me or to another conscious sexuality professional to talk about your specific sexual needs and priorities.

Unless you have the training, it can be easy to talk at people rather than learning how to talk to them, leaving you lonely and disconnected. In this episode, I introduce you step-by-step to the simple, life changing practice of “tracking impact” and creating rich connection in conversation.
1:21 My client told me that our sessions were different
2:04 “Tracking impact” is the practice that shifts talking at to talking to someone
2:45 The utterly socially awkward version of me from college
3:30 I ask you for impact.
5:02 Being like a memory foam mattress in conversation
5:45 I asked my client a strange question, but it was what he came to me to learn
7:15 Conversations don’t have to be dead – they can be alive, spontaneous and heartfelt
7:48 This week’s homework and a short demo with my husband
Resources: Many of these forms of communication I learned from the practice of Circling. There are several different schools of Circling. I gravitate most to what’s called "Integral Circling", which you can read about here: https://integralcentered.com/circling/.
