    The New Truth

    Dating after a divorce or significant breakup can feel confusing, exhausting, and deeply vulnerable.You may feel ready to put yourself out there- like you've spent enough time releasing your last relationship...And yet somehow, you find yourself attracting the same types of people, repeating the same dynamics, or wondering why dating still feels so hard.The truth is that most women don't struggle because they haven't learned enough dating strategies. They struggle because they haven't identified the unconscious patterns that are quietly running the show.In this episode, I share a radically different approach to dating after heartbreak - one that moves beyond surface-level advice and helps you understand what's really happening beneath your choices, attractions, and relationship experiences.We explore:Why time alone doesn't automatically heal relationship patternsThe hidden dynamics that keep women attracting the same experiences over and overHow your unconscious patterns influence who you're drawn toThe difference between genuine compatibility and familiar chemistryWhy dating can feel so discouraging when you're unknowingly operating from old woundsWhat it actually means to prepare for healthy loveWhether you're newly divorced, healing from a breakup, or have been single for years, this conversation will help you see dating through an entirely new lens.Because finding love isn't about becoming more desirable.It's about becoming more conscious.Ready to Go Deeper?I want to personally invite you to join me for my 3-Day Expanded Love Masterclass.For over 15 years, I've helped women uncover the hidden patterns that sabotage love, fulfillment, confidence, and the life they truly desire.The reality is that most women don't realize their patterns are leading. They think their circumstances are the problem. They think they need a better dating app, more confidence, more healing, or a different strategy.But what if the thing standing between you and the love you want isn't outside of you at all?Inside the Expanded Love Masterclass, I'll be teaching the 5 unconscious relationship archetypes that sabotage women from creating the extraordinary relationships and lives they're meant to experience.You'll discover:Why you keep repeating the same relationship dynamicsThe unconscious behaviours that block intimacy, connection, and loveHow your patterns show up in dating, relationships, work, friendships, and lifeWhat it takes to step into a new way of relating to yourself and othersHow to move from surviving love to truly experiencing itThis isn't about fixing yourself. It's about finally seeing what has been running your life behind the scenes. Because when your patterns stop leading, everything changes.Join me June 19–218:00 AM – 10:00 AM Pacific dailyLive on ZoomLINK TO REGISTER: https://www.theunscriptdwoman.com/offers/fwvzFt24?coupon_code=EXPANDXOOR the original link with : DISCOUNT CODE: EXPANDXOhttps://www.theunscriptdwoman.com/expanded-love-masterclass-3-dayThis work has changed thousands of women's lives, and I would love for you to experience it.If you're ready for deeper love, deeper freedom, and a deeper relationship with yourself, this is where we begin.About the Host:Kate Harlow is the founder of The Unscriptd Woman, the creator of The Expanded Love Coaching Method, and host of The New Truth podcast - ranked in the top 1.5% globally.

    A fight can start over something tiny and still leave you feeling wrecked for days. That's the moment we all get tempted to push harder, talk faster, and force a solution right now. I brought on marriage counselor, therapist, and author Raffi Bilek to slow that whole cycle down and replace it with a communication process that actually works when emotions are high.Raffi shares the LOVE method for active listening and empathic dialogue. We talk about why explaining, reassuring, or rushing to fix it often makes things worse, and how you can feel connected even when you never agree on the facts. Then we bring these same relationship skills into sex and intimacy, including a gentle way to start by talking about talking so you can lower shame, defensiveness, and fear of rejection.If you want better conflict resolution, deeper intimacy, and fewer circular fights, hit play.

    This week, Carla and Dex are back with one of those conversations that somehow starts with body changes in your 40s, detours through parenting philosophies, and lands in some of the biggest questions women ask themselves in midlife: What happens when you stop trying? The episode opens with a candid catch-up on life lately empty nesting, dating, career pivots, raising neurodivergent children, fitness goals, and figuring out who you are when the roles you've always identified with start to shift. As both women navigate very different seasons of motherhood, they reflect on what it means to build a life that feels full beyond work, relationships, and parenting. They also dive into the growing backlash against "gentle parenting" and explore the difference between parenting with empathy and parenting without boundaries. Carla and Dex unpack how their own childhood experiences shaped the way they parent today, what they've had to unlearn, and why self-awareness may be one of the most important parenting tools we have. The conversation takes a heavier turn as they discuss the tragic Carmelo Anthony case and the devastating consequences that can come from a single moment of conflict. Through the lens of motherhood, they explore accountability, self-defense, emotional regulation, and the difficult realities of raising children in today's world. Later, things lighten up with a hilarious womanhood segment featuring dating hot takes, relationship boundaries, attraction red flags, and a few questions that reveal just how different and how similar their views on love, intimacy, and relationships really are. But the heart of this episode centers around a listener letter from a woman who admits she's emotionally checked out of her marriage and feels relieved about it. Together, Carla and Dex explore the difference between burnout, resentment, emotional numbness, and knowing when a relationship may have reached a crossroads. They discuss therapy, communication, perimenopause, and the importance of being honest with yourself before making life-changing decisions. Because sometimes the question isn't: "Should I leave?" Sometimes the question is: "When did I stop showing up?" In This Episode: The unexpected realities of your 40s Empty nesting and rediscovering yourself Gentle parenting vs. permissive parenting Breaking generational parenting patterns The Carmelo Anthony case and accountability Dating standards that change with age Relationship red flags we once thought were attractive Why emotional numbness can be a warning sign Marriage burnout vs. relationship disconnection Perimenopause and its impact on relationships Learning to communicate before resentment becomes permanent   CONNECT WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: CARLA WILMARIS | DEX

In this episode, Krysta pulls back the curtain on the communication system she and her boyfriend built from scratch, shares why she finally stopped waiting for the "right time" to have hard conversations, and connects the dots between how you show up in your relationships and how you show up in your content.

(The one that sounds like it could ruin the walk — but actually saved it)Why Your Communication Needs Reps, Not Just Intention• The people-pleasing pattern that makes women "technically communicate" without actually saying the thing• Why walking and talking changes the emotional weight of a hard conversation• Meeting people where they are isn't just good relationship advice — it's the entire job of marketing• The practitioner who used clinical language, switched to her clients' actual words, got 10 likes, and booked three new patientsThe same way you don't wait for the busiest season of your life to start working on your fitness, you don't wait until the relationship demands more to start practicing the conversations that serious life requires.

    All Saints of North America and Antioch St. Matthew 4:18-23 On the Sunday of All Saints of North America and Antioch, Fr. Anthony reflects on how the same American instincts that often lead people to Orthodoxy can become obstacles to spiritual growth once they arrive. While habits of inquiry, comparison, and evaluation help many converts discover the Church, the Christian life requires a transition from constantly judging and analyzing to trusting the Church's proven path of formation. Drawing on examples from marriage, culture, and the lives of the saints, he argues that the Church has been making saints for two thousand years and invites us to relax into that process of transformation. --- In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Glory to Jesus Christ! This is the Second Sunday after Pentecost, which means we celebrate the saints. Now, some of you are thinking, "Father, wasn't that last Sunday?" Yes—but this Sunday we celebrate the saints who are the fruit of the Christian faith in particular places. Here in the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America, we commemorate both the Saints of Antioch and the Saints of North America. Antioch is where the followers of Christ were first called Christians. North America is where that same faith has borne fruit in our own land. Today we celebrate what happens when the Holy Spirit takes root in a people and a place and brings forth holiness. The saints were not abstractions. They were not merely names in books or faces in icons. They had families, homes, occupations, and daily struggles. They lived in particular places and faced particular temptations, just as we do. Their lives remind us that holiness is not reserved for another age or another people. It is the calling of every Christian. I know some people who are jealous of Christians who lived in other times and places. I understand the temptation. We imagine what it must have been like to live in a culture where everyone was Christian, where theology, marriage, friendship, and worship were reinforced by the world around you. It can seem as though faith would come naturally in such a setting. But every culture has its own strengths and weaknesses. Every age has its temptations. Ours certainly does. This is one reason I often speak about the long, slow slog of salvation. It takes time for Christ to gain traction in our lives. It takes time for the Holy Spirit to draw us out of our sins, reorder our desires, and teach us to see the world according to the truth. As much as we may romanticize other places and times, the reality is that the whole world groans under the weight of sin. Consider the relationship between Church and state. Some Christians look with envy at times when governments openly supported the Church. One of my favorite examples is Saint Volodymyr of Kyiv. The church he built became known as the Church of the Tithes because he dedicated a tenth of his wealth to support it. That kind of patronage can be a tremendous blessing. It keeps the doors open. It provides a place where people can encounter Christ. But there is also a danger. If people do not intentionally offer themselves to the life of the Church, they can begin to take it for granted. Historians, sociologists, and political scientists have repeatedly observed that when the Church becomes too dependent on state support, participation often becomes passive. The buildings remain full, the clergy remain funded, but the active fellowship of the faithful can become hollowed out unless people are deeply intentional about their commitment. In modern language, we might say that people need some "skin in the game." Faith must become personal. It must become sacrificial. We cannot simply inherit it; we must offer ourselves to it. The same pattern appears elsewhere. My Greek friends often point out that Hellenistic culture provided many of the intellectual tools that helped people understand and articulate the Christian faith. Concepts such as the Logos and the philosophical vocabulary of the ancient world became powerful instruments in the service of theology. And yet those same intellectual strengths carried their own dangers. Some Christians were tempted toward Gnosticism. Others drifted into excessive rigorism. The very strengths of a culture can become weaknesses if they are not transformed by Christ. The same is true for us as Americans. There is much about our culture that I celebrate. We are approaching the 250th anniversary of our nation, and as a son of the American Revolution, I appreciate the freedoms we enjoy. The First Amendment protects our ability to seek the truth and worship God according to our conscience. Many of us found Orthodoxy precisely because we were free to look beyond the assumptions of our surrounding culture. But there is another characteristic of American life that deserves our attention: consumerism. Consumerism is not merely an economic system; it is a pattern of thought. It trains us to compare, evaluate, and choose. Every trip to the grocery store involves a series of cost-benefit analyses. We compare quality and price. We examine options. We decide which product best meets our needs. That habit of evaluation has actually helped many converts find Orthodoxy. Most of us arrived here because we became dissatisfied with something. We sensed that something was missing. We began asking questions. We read books, listened to lectures, watched videos, and compared alternatives. We weighed ideas the same way we weigh products. Eventually, we discovered Orthodoxy and recognized that it offered something we had not found elsewhere: a way of life capable of leading us into deeper communion with Christ. For many of us, that process was a blessing. Without it, we might never have escaped the assumptions we inherited from our surroundings. We might never have realized that another way was possible. Now here is the challenge. The same habits that helped many of us find Orthodoxy can become obstacles once we are inside the Church. Let me explain through an analogy. Think about the way Americans approach courtship today. We live in a culture of options. Dating apps, personality profiles, compatibility scores, and endless advice all encourage us to evaluate potential spouses through a kind of cost-benefit analysis. We compare possibilities and try to determine which person is the best match. Now, thank God, many people eventually find someone they love. They build a life together, get married, and begin a family. But what happens if they never leave behind that consumer mindset? What happens if they continue to evaluate their spouse the way they once evaluated potential spouses? Sooner or later they discover something unexpected. They find an imperfection they did not anticipate. They encounter a habit they dislike. They discover a weakness that was not apparent before. At that point the consumer instinct kicks in. Some begin looking around, wondering whether there might be something better. Others begin trying to "fix" their spouse, treating the relationship like a renovation project. After thirty-six years of marriage, I can tell you that my wife became much happier when she gave up trying to fix me. There are some things that simply cannot be fixed. More importantly, that is not how healthy relationships work. A good marriage is not built through constant evaluation. It is built through trust, commitment, patience, sacrifice, and love. At some point you stop analyzing the relationship from the outside and begin living it from the inside. You relax into it. You allow yourself to be formed by it. That does not mean you stop growing. It means growth happens through love rather than manipulation. The same principle applies to the Church. I celebrate the fact that many of us found Orthodoxy because we were willing to ask questions, compare alternatives, and search for the truth. Those habits served us well. But once we arrive, we must be careful. If you have ever been a catechumen with me, you have heard me say something that may sound strange: don't become a catechumen unless you are ready to trust. You do not have to know everything before becoming Orthodox. No one does. We make sure people understand the essentials. We address the major questions and objections. But eventually there comes a point where a person must decide whether this is a place where he can be formed. If we carry the spirit of consumerism into the Church, we begin treating everything the same way we treated products on a shelf. We evaluate constantly. We compare constantly. We judge constantly. Combined with the polarization that already infects our culture, this can become spiritually destructive. We begin dividing ourselves into camps. We become critics rather than disciples. Instead of allowing the Church to form us, we place ourselves above it as evaluators. Now, that does not mean we stop improving things. We are always working to improve parish life. We renovate buildings. We develop ministries. We solve problems. But there is a profound difference between building up and tearing down. One spirit seeks to serve. The other seeks to dominate. One spirit acts from love. The other acts from judgment. One spirit strengthens communion. The other undermines it. At some point we must surrender the very habit of analysis that helped bring us here, just as a husband and wife must eventually stop evaluating one another and begin living together in trust. Once you have given your life to Christ and entered His Church, relax. You are in the right place. This is not a pig in a poke. Most of my catechumens know that expression. For those who do not, a "poke" is an old word for a bag. If you were buying a pig at market, you always looked inside the bag before handing over your money. Otherwise you might discover later that someone had sold you something entirely different. Orthodoxy is not a pig in a poke. You have looked inside the bag. You have examined the evidence. You have read the books. You have asked the questions. You have seen what the Church is. Now trust it. The Church has been forming saints for two thousand years. It has done so in Syria and Lebanon, in Greece and Romania, in Kyiv and Moscow, in Alaska and North America. It has formed saints in every culture, every language, and every century. It can form saints here. It can form saints out of us. But only if we allow it to do its work. There are very few places left in modern life where we can lower our defenses, let go of constant evaluation, and simply receive. The Church should be one of those places. This is one reason our worship is so carefully ordered. The prayers have been tested by generations. The hymns have been handed down through centuries. The services have been shaped by the wisdom of the saints. The Church knows what she is doing. Now, I still tell my catechumens and students to keep a little filter active during the homily. The prayers have been vetted by the Church. The sermon comes from me, and I am still a work in progress. But the larger point remains. Let the Church form you. The Church has been creating saints for two thousand years. It is not a cookie-cutter process. Saint Nicholas, Saint Tikhon, and Saint John were very different men. Yet all were united in Christ. The Church knows how to confront our sins. It knows how to heal anger, lust, despondency, pride, and despair. It knows how to help us become more patient, more loving, more peaceful, and more faithful. You do not need a guru. You do not need another internet rabbit hole. You do not need endless searches for the next great spiritual secret. The saints have already shown us the way. Pray. Love sacrificially. Open yourself to God's grace in the sacraments. Love God. Love your neighbor. This is the calling of every human being. This is the vocation of the royal priesthood. This is the path walked by the saints of Antioch, the saints of North America, and the saints throughout the world. And it is the path set before us today. May God strengthen us as we walk it together. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

    Why Co-Parenting Vows Might Save Your Family featuring Jess Hilarious

    The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)

    Jess Hilarious has built a career on telling the truth in a way that makes people laugh and feel seen, from the Baltimore open mic scene to Wild 'N Out, starring on Rel, her hit podcast Carefully Reckless, and now co-hosting The Breakfast Club. But in this conversation, we go somewhere most people have never heard her go: what it really took to become the mother and co-parent she is today. Jess got pregnant at 19, raised in a strict church household, terrified to tell her parents she even had a boyfriend. She opens up about the first six months after her son Ashton was born, when she didn't want to be a mom at all, and the breakdown on her knees in her mother's house that ended with her baby smirking up at her from the crib. That was the moment everything changed. We also walk through the hard road with her son's father, Jerome. The cheating, the other girl at Ashton's first birthday party, and the public comment that revealed he had a second child on the way. Instead of staying at war, Jess chose to understand the trauma behind his behavior, and the two of them took actual co-parenting vows: for better or for worse, till death do we parent. As a father of four boys, I know how many men in our community are navigating co-parenting right now, and this episode is packed with hard-won wisdom on boundaries, accountability, and putting your kids first. Jess's new book, Til Death Do We Parent, brings her trademark humor and honesty to all of it, and this conversation is the perfect introduction.   Timeline Summary [1:01] Larry welcomes comedian, actress, and Breakfast Club co-host Jess Hilarious to the show [1:48] Jess opens up about not wanting to be a mom for the first six months after her son was born [3:15] Telling Jerome she was pregnant at 19 and his unexpectedly joyful reaction [4:25] A charge on her record, no job offers, and moving back in with her mom after Ashton arrived [4:52] The breakdown in her mom's house: "why would you pick me to be your mother?" [7:17] Telling her parents at 8 PM: her dad's ten-second breathing technique and her mom's prayer [15:02] The funeral story at age eight that proved Jess was born funny [17:43] Martin Lawrence's brother calls and Jess fakes ten years of stand-up experience [18:41] Opening for Martin Lawrence in front of 13,000 people in Baltimore after five open mics [25:05] Rome brings another girl to Ashton's first birthday party [26:57] Leaving a good man for one more chance, then learning about Rome's second child from a public comment [31:14] Understanding Rome's trauma: losing his mother at ten and finding her himself [33:32] The co-parenting vows: "I take you, Jerome James, to be my lawfully wedded co-parent" [35:22] Dating selfishly and taking accountability for the men she brought around Ashton [38:15] The 1 AM phone call that made her husband draw the line on boundaries [42:58] Larry shares meeting his biological father by chance in a St. Louis Starbucks at age 30   Five Key Takeaways Treat co-parenting like a vow you can't walk away from, because your child is watching how you show up for better or for worse. Your kids absorb every ounce of tension between you and your ex, and defiance at school is often a reflection of the energy they're consuming at home. Understanding the trauma behind your ex's behavior won't excuse it, but it can free you from resentment and make a real friendship possible. When you have kids, you date as a package, so anyone who isn't building a bond with your child isn't actually good for you either. Boundaries protect every relationship you have, and putting "friendship hours" around your co-parent isn't disrespect, it's what keeps your marriage and your co-parenting healthy.   Links & Resources Til Death Do We Parent by Jess Hilarious: https://www.amazon.com/Til-Death-Do-We-Parent/dp/1668059355 Jess's website — https://jesshilariousofficial.com Follow Jess on Instagram — @jesshilarious_official Follow Jess on Twitter and Snapchat — @jess_hilarious Jess Hilarious Official on Facebook Episode resources — https://thedadedge.com/1490 Questions for the Car free download — https://thedadedge.com/questions The Dad Edge Alliance — http://thedadedge.com/join   Closing There's a moment in this episode where Jess describes falling to her knees, asking her infant son why he chose her as his mother, and looking up to see him smirking at her from the crib as if to say "I'm here, so put on your big girl panties." That's the kind of raw honesty that changes how you see your own parenting story. If you're navigating co-parenting, boundaries, or just the weight of feeling unready, share this one with a brother who needs it. Go out and live legendary.

    Is the anxiety you're feeling a signal of real connection – or something happening within you that's worth understanding? We're unpacking the complex relationship between anxiety and dating, and how anxiety can often be mistaken for chemistry when it may actually reflect deeper uncertainty or unresolved emotional triggers. We discuss the importance of recognizing your personal anxiety patterns, how the “IKEA effect” can backfire when we lead with our anxiety, and how we can challenge the way we define chemistry, recognizing the difference between grounded excitement from anxiety-driven intensity.

    In this episode of Boss Bitch Radio, I'm sitting down with my baby sister, Tina, for one of our favorite things to do - an unfiltered sister yap session. We cover everything from growing up as daughters of divorced parents to navigating our own divorces, healing family wounds, raising kids, and figuring out who we are on the other side of some of life's hardest seasons. This conversation is full of laughter, honesty, and the kind of stories that only sisters can tell. Tina and I didn't grow up together in the traditional sense after our parents divorced, so we've had a unique journey of finding our way back to each other throughout adulthood. In this episode, we reflect on our childhood, our Portuguese family culture, our relationships with our parents, and the lessons we've learned from staying in marriages longer than we should have. If you've ever experienced divorce, struggled with family relationships, worked through the mother wound, or simply enjoy listening to honest conversations between sisters, I think you'll see a little bit of yourself in this episode.
