Chelsea Skaggs is here to talk about how couples can keep your romantic relationship strong as you move beyond from early stages of survival mode deeper into parenthood. Together we explore: How the demands of parenting shift as your children grow, and what that means for your romantic connection. Tips for getting your partner on board if only one of you feels ready to work on deepening your connection. Simple and practical strategies for attuning to your partner and "reading" the room for your best chance of success feeling a deepened connection. Navigating mismatched energy levels and intentions so bids for connection aren't thwarted. A power tool anyone can implement right away that can be help you to break out of reactive patterns. How your own nervous system regulation can be a starting point for closeness, including what polyvagal theory teaches us about this. Addressing resentment as a signal of unmet needs—and how to get to the root rather than staying stuck in this toxic loop. Why it's essential to focus on what's within your control and give yourself permission to care for yourself, instead of blaming your partner for meeting their needs. If you're ready to move beyond just getting through the day and reconnect with your partner in a deeper way, this conversation is for you. LEARN MORE ABOUT MY GUEST:

If you are someone who loves building healthy relationships, communication skills, and personal growth, then this episode is for you.A few years ago in couples therapy, I learned one simple relationship tip that completely changed the way I communicate, especially during conflict. It's something I come back to again and again, whether I'm arguing with my husband or navigating tension with a family member.This advice is so powerful because it works outside of romantic partnerships too—whether you're navigating tension with a friend, a family member, or anyone you love and respect.In this episode, I'm walking you through the exact phrase my therapist said that stopped me in my tracks, helped my husband and I reconnect, and later, helped my sister and I move from feeling misunderstood to finally hearing each other.But first, a big disclaimer: this tip only works with emotionally intelligent, securely attached people. It's not for those in abusive dynamics or with people who are committed to misunderstanding you. If that's something you've struggled with, I hope this episode gives you clarity on when to apply healthy communication tools—and when to have the self-worth to step away.You'll learn:Why being “right” is overrated in relationshipsHow to shift from objective truth to subjective experiencesWhat emotionally-intelligent conflict resolution actually sounds likeHow to move from defensiveness to connection in under 10 minutesWhether you're in a long-term relationship or just want to improve how you show up for the people you love, this episode will give you the mindset shift you didn't know you needed.Deepen your self-love journey with Mary's books:*The Gift of Self-Love,* an interactive workbook that will help you build confidence, recognize your worth, and learn to finally love yourself.*100 Days of Self-Love,* a guided journal with 100 prompts to help you calm self-criticism and learn to love who you are.Follow Mary on IG: @maryscupofteaa and @maryspodcastIf you're enjoying this self-love podcast, share it with the women in your life to spread the gift of self-love!Mentioned In This Episode...Ep. 170: Intentional Wedding Planning and Artful Gathering with Priya ParkerEp. 257: Me and My Sister Recap Our Trip to France Ep. 258: Confidence Advice for Teen Girls (feat.

Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about... What you can do if you're wondering: “Is my kid's ADHD diagnosis real or do I have an active 10-year-old kid?” How to evaluate the accuracy of a diagnosis and what steps to take if you're unsure or want a second opinion. Practical tools you can use to support your child—diagnosis or not. Strategies for becoming more aligned with your partner on how to handle parenting challenges and support your child's needs. What is a behavioral observation tracker, and how it can help you decide which interventions would be most helpful to use.

What do you do when your marriage is in crisis and one partner wants out? In this insightful episode, we sit down with Dr. Becky Whetstone, a Marriage and Family Therapist, consultant, life coach, and author of I (Think) I Want Out. After experiencing her own disappointing marriage counseling that led to divorce, Dr. Becky became determined to learn how to truly help couples reconcile when possible—or create an amicable divorce when necessary.Dr. Becky explains how, when a partner's nervous system is activated, they enter fight-or-flight mode, feeling as though their survival is at stake. This often leads them to believe that leaving is the only option. However, by calming the nervous system, addressing the root causes of conflict, and encouraging personal growth, many marriages can be saved.Join us as Dr. Becky shares her expert insights on navigating a marriage crisis, strengthening relationships, and finding the best path forward—whether that means healing together or parting peacefully.Learn more about Dr. Becky Whetstone and her work at MarriageCrisisManager.com.Thank you for supporting Linda's Corner!

Straight from the Source's Mouth: Frank Talk about Sex and Dating
Send us a textEver noticed how the person you love most can trigger your worst reactions? That's no accident—it's attachment in action.Couples therapist Figs O'Sullivan joins us to reveal the surprising truth behind relationship conflicts: we don't fight because we don't care, but because we care deeply. Drawing from his journey from childhood dysfunction to creating a loving family, Figgs shares the three-pillar framework that guides his transformative approach to couples therapy.At the heart of his method lies attachment theory—the understanding that humans need emotional connection from birth until death. When we perceive threats to our bond with a loved one, our nervous system goes into protection mode. Combined with systems theory, we see how couples create feedback loops where one person's defensive reaction triggers the other's fears, escalating conflicts despite their best intentions."We're not a threat to each other," Figs explains, "we're just two threatened people having a hard time." This perspective shift is revolutionary—transforming how we view our partner's annoying behaviors as fear responses rather than intentional attacks.Ready to transform your relationship dynamics?

Today, I talk about my Couples' Checklist book.
Welcome to R&R: Revisit & Reflect, a new episode format here on the podcast. We're living in a time of information abundance (sometimes information overload) and lots of that information is about mental health and relational health! But there's a difference between consuming content and integrating it. When we consume, the information might just pass through us, whereas when we integrate, the information weaves its way into our unique story or situation, creating insight and the potential for a shift in mindset, in emotion, in belief, and in behavior. With these R&R episodes, you'll reflect and journal with Dr. Alexandra to integrate core lessons from the podcast, starting with today's conversation from the archive with the inimitable relationship expert Esther Perel. They explore relational ambivalence and how to reignite the spark inside your relationship, and within yourself, inspired by a listener's question. So, get out your favorite pen and journal and join in this summer reflection. You'll come away from this episode with:A deeper understanding of the importance of rituals in maintaining connection amidst life's challengesA new perspective on the impact of external circumstances on anxiety in your relationships.The ability to recognize and respond to your partner's bids for connection.A framework for self-reflection with actionable journaling prompts to enhance intimacy.Journaling Prompts:How do the macro issues of the world shape your love life today? To what degree are you able to give yourself permission for play and pleasure, even as the world feels so hard? What allows you to do that?In the clip, Esther reminds us that if you don't know how to turn yourself on, there's nothing your partner can do to turn you on. How are you finding ways to connect to your own aliveness? What are some things you can do this week, just for you, that could reinvigorate your internal spark? This could include engaging with nature, art, food, movement, or play.In this clip, Esther and Dr. Alexandra talk about how for a couple to create an experience together, one partner is the initiator and one is the responder. These roles aren't fixed, but which role do you do you tend to find yourself in more? What do you like about being in each position, and what's hard about each of them?“Your Midyear Refresh” on MasterClass: masterclass.com/yourmidyearrefreshCouple Therapy Certification Course from PESI: pesi.com/dralexandraOrder Dr. Alexandra's book, Love Every DaySubscribe to Dr. Alexandra's NewsletterSubmit a Listener Question

Painful intercourse is a horrible experience for many reasons (especially when you're told to just relax or that it's all in your head...). Our guest today, Occupational Therapist Jess Seitz, shares how she uses her degree and personal experience overcoming 8 years of vaginismus to walk women through healing. This isn't just for the married ladies, though, but any woman experiencing pain inserting a tampon, having a pelvic exam, etc. She discusses the keys to success, including addressing the physical, mental, emotional, and even spiritual influences that have an impact. If you experience pain, stinging, burning, pressure, or discomfort and you're not sure if there's anything that can be done, this episode is for you.

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 748 Are your unresolved childhood wounds hijacking your relationships and keeping you stuck in depression or anxiety? Neuro-Rewiring Expert Mike Zeller joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 748, to share how healing your protector parts can transform conflict into deeper connection and trust, why psychedelics can reopen critical social learning periods and give you access to the hidden programming of your mind, and how to move from fear-driven protector parts into authentic flow state. "Our core longing as human beings is connection and love. We think that the wounded, victim, angry self is who we are because that part is in the driver's seat, and we're identified with that feeling. When we do the neuro-rewiring work, we separate that enmeshment. And because of that separation, we can now recognize the patterns and awareness instead of being in it so much that we can't see." - Mike Zeller
