If we want to increase the intimacy and connection in our relationships, it is imperative that we show up as a safe person who creates a safe space. Often, the patterns we have established in our relationships are the opposite of safe, they cause our primitive brains to go into hyper protective mode and want to run away emotionally and physically. But when we can learn to show up safe, time and time again, we can create a space where our spouse may be willing to start engaging in vulnerability, in the openness and honesty necessary to deepen our engagement.

Zach and Desirae Ysasi pick up where they left off—diving deep into the intersections of race, identity, privilege, and emotional intimacy in relationships and therapy spaces. What unfolds is a profoundly honest and vulnerable conversation about belonging, the emotional labor of marginalized people, and what it means to truly listen and connect across differences. Desirae shares how her lived experience as a Mexican-American woman shapes her approach to relationships, while Zach opens up about grappling with his identity as a white man raised with privilege. The episode becomes a model of real-time learning and mutual respect, grounded in curiosity and humility. This is more than just a conversation about culture—it's about how we show up for each other with compassion, honesty, and a willingness to grow. Key Takeaways  Curiosity Over CertaintyZach and Desirae reflect on the importance of asking questions to understand, not to correct. True connection comes from being willing to sit in uncertainty and learn from others' lived experiences.  Self-Esteem as a Spiritual ConceptDesirae explains that healthy intimacy requires healthy self-esteem—and for many marginalized people, self-worth must be cultivated not from the culture around them, but from a deep spiritual sense of belonging and worthiness.  Therapists are Still Learning, TooZach shares a story about unintentionally alienating a client and asks how to be better. Desirae responds with grace and clarity.  Navigating Marriage in a Marginalized BodyDesirae speaks powerfully about what it means to build intimacy in a world that has long devalued your body, identity, and culture. Even with all the right tools, trauma and oppression create layers that take time and care to unwind.

The power to feel emotionally safe, even when life feels uncertain, might be the greatest gift you can give yourself after divorce. But our brains make this challenging in ways you might not realize.  Have you ever wondered why leaving an unhappy marriage feels so terrifying, even when you know it's the right choice? The answer lies in how your brain processes certainty versus uncertainty. Your amygdala—the primitive part of your brain responsible for survival—doesn't distinguish between physical threats and emotional ones. When divorce disrupts your predictable patterns, your brain interprets this uncertainty as danger, triggering fight, flight, freeze, or fawn responses that can leave you feeling constantly anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck.  What's fascinating is how we can mistake familiarity for safety. Even in disconnected or toxic relationships, the predictability creates a false sense of security. Your brain says: "I know what to expect here, therefore I'm safe"—even when you're deeply unfulfilled.  The transformative truth? Uncertainty itself isn't dangerous. We live with it constantly! The key is learning to create emotional safety for yourself without requiring external certainty. In this episode you'll learn the first steps to dismantle false safety mechanisms and build true emotional security. If this podcast resonated with you in any way, please take a minute to follow and give me a rating wherever you listen to podcasts.To schedule your complimentary consult with Karin click here.For more information and full show notes go to:https://www.karinnelsoncoaching.com/post/ep213

Send us a textYou say one thing. They hear another. And somehow, the more you try to explain, the worse it gets.Sound familiar?This is what defensiveness does.

Send one way text to Rev Rachel After 32 years together, Rich and I open our hearts to share the profound transformation of our relationship—a journey shaped by Soul Recovery, parenting through addiction, and rediscovering true partnership. As we celebrate Rich's one-year sobriety anniversary, we reflect on the subtle yet powerful shifts that have deepened our connection, moving away from control and quick fixes to create a foundation of safety where vulnerability can thrive. Rich shares how learning to truly listen and express his needs has allowed us to heal individually while growing closer together, revealing the beautiful paradox that the more we focus on our own soul recovery, the stronger our relationship becomes. We also explore the wisdom gained from supporting our adult children, navigating family complexities, and facing life's challenges with presence instead of numbing.

Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you work, something is always holding you back from achieving your dreams? In this new series [Essentials To Inner Healing], we're diving deep into the connection between nervous system regulation and sustainable success in business. In this first episode, we start by laying the foundation, including why it's important to feel safe in your body to attract clients, as well as opportunities and abundance.  Before we rise to our fullest potential, we must learn to regulate our nervous system. We break down the three states of the nervous system—regulated (green zone), activated (yellow zone), and shutdown (red zone)—and how each state impacts our capacity to receive and create. In this episode, I share practical tools for creating safety within your body, including breathwork, grounding techniques, and co-regulation practices. I address common blocks entrepreneurs face, such as the fear of visibility and the tendency to overwork, which can lead to burnout.  In this episode, we discuss: The importance of nervous system regulation for sustainable success. How to identify and shift between the three states of the nervous system. Practical techniques for creating safety in the body. The impact of fear and overworking on our ability to receive.  Reflections on my personal experience and client stories.

In this episode of the Love Stories podcast, I had the pleasure of welcoming Yats Palat, a relationship inner work coach dedicated to helping high-achieving women break free from painful relationship cycles and reconnect with their feminine energy.Throughout the episode, we discussed the significance of emotional safety in relationships and how women can reclaim their femininity by allowing themselves to be vulnerable. Yats shared insights on how a woman's upbringing, particularly her relationship with her father, can influence her ability to receive love and nurture in adulthood. We also touched on the idea that many women feel the need to "fix" their partners, often at the expense of their own well-being.IN THIS EPISODE:- (04:41) Realizations of Fatherhood- (12:28) Inner Child and Relationship Dynamics- (22:59) Wounded Women Attracting Wounded Men- (30:27) Father Figures and Emotional Safety- (35:02) Emotional Expression in Relationships- (41:40) Cultural Differences in MasculinityRESOURCESCheck out my How to Attract Devoted Masculine Men Masterclass HERE My FREE eBook The Magnetic WomanApp rec: BumbleFeminine Embodiment HERECONNECT WITH CHARLENE On Instagram @mscharlenebyars On YouTube @chosentrainingWork with me HERECONNECT WITH YATSOn Instagram HERELinks HERE

Ever feel like you're the only one trying to improve your marriage?It seems as though you're constantly reflecting, adjusting, and trying to make things better—while your spouse seems unaware or unwilling to see their part? Maybe they shut down, get defensive, or act like you're the one making a big deal out of nothing.It's frustrating. Exhausting. And it can make you feel completely alone in the relationship.But why does this happen?Why is it so hard for some people—especially men—to admit their own brokenness?This week on the podcast, I'm diving into this question. Because when one spouse refuses to acknowledge their contribution to marital struggles, it creates a wall that keeps the relationship stuck. The other partner is left feeling unheard, unseen, and reluctant to change because why should they be the only one doing the work?The truth is, many people—men in particular—have been conditioned to see admitting fault as a weakness rather than a strength. They've been taught that being a “good” spouse means providing and protecting, not necessarily self-reflecting and taking emotional responsibility.And when they do start to see their part, it can feel overwhelming—like they're failing or disappointing the person they love. So instead of leaning in, they push back.In this episode, I'm unpacking:Why taking ownership of our flaws feels so difficult.How this resistance impacts the marriage dynamic.What creates safety for BOTH spouses to be honest about their struggles.And how even one person can start to shift the cycle in a healthier direction.But that's not all—I'm also bringing Jeff into this conversation.Next week, I'll be sharing a raw and honest interview with him about this very dynamic. We'll talk about what was going on inside of him when he struggled to admit his own brokenness, what finally shifted for him, and what he would say to other spouses who feel stuck in this cycle.This follow-up episode is going to be a powerful one—especially if you've ever wished your spouse could just see their part in the struggles.So first, listen to this week's episode to lay the foundation, and then get ready for next week's conversation with Jeff.Have you ever felt like your spouse just doesn't see their part in the struggles? CBS News Interview: 6 Tips For A Healthy & Loving RelationshipUnlock deeper connection in your marriage with my free guide, Daily Prompts for Deeper Connection with Your Spouse—get it now!

In this week's episode, Rebecca dives into the deep-seated fears surrounding intimacy and how they shape our relationships. If you've ever struggled with vulnerability or felt the urge to protect yourself from being truly seen, this episode is for you! Understanding Intimacy: True intimacy isn't just about physical closeness—it's about being seen, understood, and accepted. Many people fear this level of vulnerability due to past experiences of rejection, judgment, or abandonment. Subconscious Patterns: Rebecca unpacks how early life experiences program our subconscious beliefs about intimacy, often leading to protective behaviors that block deep connections. Recognizing Avoidance Patterns: Are you holding back parts of yourself in relationships? Identifying these tendencies is the first step toward breaking free from unhealthy cycles. Healing & Safety: Creating emotional safety is key. Healing past wounds helps us realize that being seen is not dangerous and that love can be safe and fulfilling. Practical Steps to Embrace Intimacy: Rebecca shares actionable strategies to help you open up, including small steps, affirmations, and intentional vulnerability in safe spaces. If you're ready to move past the fear and create deeper, more meaningful relationships, tune in to this powerful episode.

What really makes a relationship feel safe? Many of us believe that deep connection means merging emotions, fixing each other's problems, or intuitively knowing what the other person needs. But what if the very things we think create closeness are actually keeping us stuck in unhealthy dynamics? In this episode, we explore how to recognize what belongs to you in a relationship—your emotions, thoughts, choices, behaviors, and beliefs—and why understanding this is the foundation for trust, emotional safety, and true intimacy. We'll also dive into how blurred boundaries often get mistaken for love and why setting clear, healthy boundaries doesn't push people away—it actually makes relationships stronger. Whether you struggle with taking on too much emotional responsibility or feel frustrated when others try to control your choices, this conversation will help you see relationships through a new lens. Real connection doesn't come from losing yourself—it comes from knowing where you stand.   Three Key Takeaways for Listeners: 1️. Real love isn't about absorbing each other's feelings—it's about respecting each other's autonomy while staying connected. 2.  The strongest relationships aren't ones without boundaries—they're ones where both people feel safe being fully themselves. 3.  You can't trust someone who won't let you be responsible for your own emotions, choices, and beliefs—and vice versa.   People don't change  because we demand it. They change because  they decide to.   Get your FREE Boundaries Ebook here!

Are you tired of repeating the same relationship patterns? Whether it's constant worry about abandonment or a tendency to keep people at arm's length, these behaviors - known as attachment styles - aren't set in stone. In part one of this two-part series, therapist Tony Overbay examines the science of attachment theory, tracing its development from John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth's pioneering "Strange Situation" experiment to current research demonstrating how people can actually change their relationship patterns. Through clinical examples and accessible explanations, Tony breaks down how early experiences with caregivers create blueprints that influence adult relationships - and more importantly, why these patterns can evolve. Tony explains how understanding attachment style connects to emotional maturity and self-awareness. Listeners will learn about different attachment patterns, how they manifest in daily life, and why these early-developed patterns aren't a reflection of personal failure - they emerged before conscious choice was possible. This episode provides the foundation for a deeper exploration of attachment style change and relationship transformation. For anyone dealing with trust issues, abandonment fears, or struggles with emotional intimacy, the discussion offers concrete insights into becoming more secure in relationships. Part 2 will delve into specific strategies for building secure attachments and showing up differently in relationships. As Tony often says, "You're not broken, you're human" - and humans have a remarkable capacity for growth. 00:00 Welcome Back and New Beginnings 00:28 Understanding Narcissism and Emotional Maturity 02:05 Personal Struggles and Emotional Growth 04:40 Podcast Updates and Future Plans 06:59 Introduction to Attachment Theory 10:06 The Strange Situation Experiment 12:28 Attachment Styles and Their Impact 17:25 Early Childhood and Relationship Templates 21:04 Avoidant Attachment in Adulthood 22:07 The Painful Dance of Intimacy 23:52 The Role of Fathers in Attachment 24:37 Presence and Radiance: A Father's Influence 26:18 Emotional Safety and Consistency 29:31 Navigating Emotions and Independence 39:53 Challenges of Absent Fathers 44:12 Healing Attachment Wounds 44:33 Conclusion and Next Steps Find more from Tony Overbay: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@virtualcouch Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/virtual.couch/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tonyoverbaylmft/ Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-virtual-couch/id1275153998 Website: https://www.tonyoverbay.com/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/virtualcouch To learn more about Tony's upcoming re-release of the Magnetic Marriage course, his Pathback Recovery course, and more, sign up for his newsletter through the link at https://linktr.ee/virtualcouch Available NOW: Tony's "Magnetic Marriage Mini-Course" is only $25. https://magneticmarriage.mykajabi.com/magnetic-marriage-mini-course Subscribe to Tony's latest podcast, "Waking Up to Narcissism Q&A - Premium Podcast," on the Apple Podcast App. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/waking-up-to-narcissism-q-a/id1667287384 Go to http://tonyoverbay.com/workshop to sign up for Tony's "Magnetize Your Marriage" virtual workshop.

Through his unique two-part approach of "marathon and sprint," he explains how our reactions to our children's vulnerable moments become the deciding factor in whether they'll trust us with future challenges. The discussion focuses on transforming those critical moments when children share mistakes or difficulties, demonstrating how to shift from being a punitive figure to a trusted confidant. Larry shares practical strategies for responding to everything from poor grades to serious mistakes, emphasizing that our children's willingness to be open with us in the future is shaped by how we handle their vulnerability today. Through personal stories and actionable advice, he shows how fathers can create an environment where children feel safe sharing anything, ultimately building stronger, more trusting parent-child relationships. www.thedadedge.com/friday190 www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.thedadedge.com/squire www.themensforge.com www.thedadedge.com/daddydaughter
