In this powerful episode, I sit down with best-selling author, Pam Grout, to explore the profound journey of healing, love, and loss—and to discuss how, even in the darkest times, we can discover light and meaning.
Pam and I share a bond beyond our love for quantum physics and a belief in manifestation. We've both faced unimaginable losses: We both lost both our parents as well as a child. I lost my son Sammy, while Pam lost her daughter to a sudden aneurysm. We’ve walked through the pain of these losses and emerged with a sense of grace connection that feels almost otherworldly. We both agree that “lost” doesn’t feel quite right—our loved ones are gone, yet we still feel their presence, like gentle echoes guiding us forward.
Pam shares how completing A Course in Miracles after her daughter’s passing became a sanctuary and source of resilience, as writing has been for both of us. Together, we discuss how our work—whether through writing, teaching, or supporting others—has been shaped by these experiences.
Tune in to explore:
How our beliefs shape our reality and how to manifest with purpose
The healing power of daily gratitude
Signs and symbols that connect us with loved ones who’ve passed
Ways to cultivate appreciation in relationships and savor life’s precious moments
How to embrace difficult emotions to find clarity and peace
Make sure to explore the E-Squared experiments on YouTube and dive into Pam’s insightful books:, E-Squared, E-Cubed, A Course in Miracles, and God Doesn't Have Bad Hair Days.

They swept you off your feet, showered you with affection, and made you feel like the center of their world—until they didn’t. Now, just when you thought you were done, they’re back, promising that they’ve changed and insisting that this time will be different. But can someone who left you feeling confused and used really transform that quickly?
That’s exactly what Sarah, one of our listeners, is dealing with in this Language of Love Session. She broke up with her toxic ex, only for him to return with flowers, apologies, and promises of change. It’s hard not to get pulled back in, right? One minute he’s manipulative and unsupportive, and the next he’s sending heartfelt letters.
So, what’s really going on here? Is change possible, or is this just another round of love-bombing?
In this Session, we dig into:
How to recognize signs of narcissistic and emotionally abusive behavior
What are the signs they’ve really changed?
The toxic cycle of abuse, and why it can create “trauma bonds” that are hard to break
Stockholm syndrome and its effects on relationships
Why real change takes time—and how to spot real commitment to growth
The importance of therapy for both partners in a healthy relationship
Setting boundaries to protect yourself and move forward

Why, in a world full of endless choices, do so many of us search for that one person to share a life with? Is it loyalty, comfort, a desire for deep connection—or maybe the thrill of choosing one person out of billions, saying, “You’re my person,” and truly meaning it?
But here’s the real question: can one person meet all your needs? Or maybe you've wondered why monogamy can feel so challenging at times, even when it’s deeply fulfilling?
In this episode of The Language of Love Bite, we’re diving into the heart of monogamy—the highs, the lows, and everything in between. We explore why this relationship style resonates so strongly with some and feels complex for others. How do you keep that connection alive after years together? What happens when jealousy creeps in or your needs shift over time? I share practical tips on rekindling passion, communicating openly without fear, and tuning in to your true desires.
If you’ve ever questioned whether monogamy is your path, or you’re just looking for ways to strengthen your relationship, join me for an open and eye-opening journey into love, loyalty, and keeping that spark alive.

Talking about the end of life isn’t exactly everyone’s favorite topic, but it’s one of the most important conversations we can have. Not only does it give our loved ones clarity and peace, but it also creates a pathway to stay connected—even after they’ve crossed over. Caregivers know this better than anyone; they lean into these talks because they understand how much they matter. So, maybe it’s time we stop avoiding the tough stuff and start having the conversations that truly count.
In this Language of Love Conversation, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Shoshana Ungerleider to explore how to deepen our connections with loved ones—even after they’ve crossed over. Shoshana gets personal, sharing her journey of walking alongside her father during his final chapter. She opens up about how caregiving reshaped her relationships—not just with her dad, but with herself and her husband, who stepped into a caregiving role in unexpected and beautiful ways. We dive into the emotional complexities of caregiving, the impact of family dynamics during illness, and how these experiences inspire her groundbreaking work in palliative care and end-of-life issues.
Here’s a taste of what we explore:
Why honest conversations about end-of-life care can transform tough moments into meaningful ones
The difference between palliative care and hospice care
How terminal illness impacts family relationships in surprising ways
The importance of informed decision-making in end-of-life situations
What cultural attitudes about death and dying reveal—and how to rethink them
Reshaping how the media portrays end-of-life and caregiving
Remember to stay connected with Dr. Shoshana Ungerleider on LinkedIn or through her website to follow her groundbreaking work in transforming how we approach life’s transitions and end-of-life care.

Did you grow up feeling like sex was a taboo topic to discuss—something mysterious, maybe even a little forbidden? Most of us did, which can make it easy to see sex as a "guilty pleasure" rather than what it really can be—a natural, healthy and beautiful part of life. But here’s where things get interesting: turns out, a satisfying sex life does a whole lot more than bring pleasure.
In this Language of Love Bite, I am breaking down all the juicy, science-backed reasons why sex is a win for your body, mind, and spirit. We’re going way beyond the basics here—it turns out, sex is pretty much a health and happiness booster!

In this Language of Love Conversation, I have an amazing conversation with Craig Siegel—renowned motivational speaker, performance coach, and bestselling author of The Reinvention Formula, a Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller.
