Visit the Sex With Emily Website: https://sexwithemily.com/ In this episode of Sex with Emily, world-renowned psychotherapist Esther Perel joins us for an intimate conversation about the complexities of modern love, desire, and relationships. From her groundbreaking work on infidelity to her insights on maintaining passion in long-term partnerships, Esther shares the wisdom that has helped millions navigate the tension between security and excitement in love. We explore Esther's core philosophy that desire is not something you have—it's something you cultivate. She breaks down the fundamental paradox of modern relationships: love seeks closeness and security, while desire craves space, novelty, and mystery. We discuss how to integrate these opposing forces and why the question "Can you want what you already have?" is central to sustaining passion over time. Esther reveals why eroticism is truly a state of mind, how pleasure connects directly to self-worth, and her revolutionary perspective on infidelity—that sometimes people don't go elsewhere to find another person, but to find another version of themselves. We also dive into her new card game "Where Should We Begin," designed to foster vulnerability and deep connection through storytelling. This conversation addresses the unrealistic expectations we place on one partner to be our everything, practical tools for managing relationship anxiety, and why modern love requires us to calibrate rather than abandon our expectations. Whether you're single, coupled, or somewhere in between, Esther's insights offer a roadmap for creating more authentic, passionate connections.

Cette newsletter va vous choquer car vous pensez savoir et vous allez réaliser que non. Notre téléphone est ce que nous touchons le plus dans notre vie avant même le corps de nos enfants ou de notre partenaire. Nous vivons une épidémie silencieuse d'addiction technologique, et contrairement à ce qu'on veut nous faire croire, ce n'est pas de notre faute.Et voici mon tedx : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vhzd2fPtduE&t=18s&pp=ygUJcG91eSB0ZWR4En 2014, il y a 11 ans, ma petite amie de l'époque m'offrait un livre intitulé « Se débrancher chaque jour pour une meilleure vie ».C'est à peu près à cette même époque que je lisais Eli Pariser et sa bulle de filtre.Bref, cela fait longtemps que j'ai un souci avec les écrans, et c'est évidemment lié à ma nature curieuse mais aussi à mon travail de créateur de contenus par définition (ou au moins, c'est l'excuse que je me trouve).Dix ans plus tard, force est de constater que le problème ne s'est pas arrangé. Bien au contraire. Il s'est développé, infiltrant chaque recoin de mon quotidien avec une efficacité terrifiante.Et les études me prouvent que c'est sans doute pareil pour vous.Le sentiment partagé d'une difficulté à s'en libérer est bien réel mais ce n'est pas un manque de volonté individuelle, mais un problème systémique et culturel, intentionnellement conçu.Comme me le rappelle Johann Hari, que j'ai eu la chance de recevoir récemment sur Vlan!, notre attention a été volée. Les réseaux sociaux sont délibérément conçus pour nous rendre complètement addicts.Parce que je suis de bonne volonté et que regarder les heures perdues sur ces réseaux m'effraient, je me suis mis une limite de temps et après 30 minutes quand je vais sur Instagram, LinkedIn ou TikTok, j'ai ce petit message qui me rappelle que « non Greg, c'est pas bien ».Ça me donne une illusion de contrôle, c'est bien mais inutile en réalité, je le passe d'un mouvement de pouce rapide et ferme.Comme tout le monde, je me suis fait manipuler.Je ne sais pas vous, mais je trouve ça frustrant de le savoir, de comprendre un peu près les impacts - et pourtant de ne pas réussir à reprendre le contrôle. Je n'aime pas cette « faiblesse » que j'observe chez moi.C'est terrible parce que je me vois faire et je peste parce que c'est plus fort que moi.Cette newsletter, c'est ma tentative de comprendre pourquoi nous en sommes arrivés là, et surtout, comment nous pouvons nous en sortir - collectivement.Car il ne s'agit pas que de notre addiction compulsive à notre smartphone et de plus en plus à l'IA, mais de l'impact que cela peut avoir sur notre cerveau, notre Q.I., notre Q.E., notre capacité à réfléchir avec une pensée critique et à fonctionner avec d'autres.Après cette newsletter, vous allez vous observer vos usages de manière différente.La psychotherapeute Esther Perel parle d'une « atrophie sociale » - l'atrophie dans le corps, c'est quand un muscle n'est pas assez utilisé, alors il disparaît.ll semblerait qu'il se passe la même chose pour nous et qu'en réalité, cela va beaucoup plus loin que ça.Ne vous attendez pas à ce que je vous dise de faire çi ou ça ou que je sois vent debout contre les technologies.Je suis - vous l'aurez compris –un usager frénétique de mon mobile et de l'IA. Je serai donc mal placé pour vous donner des conseils que je ne mets moi-même pas en place ou vous dire que la technologie c'est mal.Néanmoins, je vais partager avec vous les pare-feux que j'essaie de mettre en place pour me prémunir de tout ce que je vais vous expliquer. C'est plus qu'urgent !

The hosts of the blockbuster podcast We Can Do Hard Things share a fresh guide to being alive and answer life's most difficult questions. Every day, Glennon Doyle spirals around the same questions: Why am I like this? How do I figure out what I want? How do I know what to do? Why can't I be happy? Am I doing this right? The harder life gets, the less likely she is to remember the answers she's spent her life learning. In a particularly difficult year, Glennon was diagnosed with anorexia, her sister Amanda was diagnosed with breast cancer, and her wife Abby's beloved brother died. For the first time, they were all lost at the same time. So they asked each other, their dearest friends, and 118 of the world's most brilliant wayfinders, among them, Jane Fonda, Brandi Carlile, Esther Perel and Ocean Vuong what wisdom might help others find their way. Now they share their discoveries. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast, I'm sitting down with the Two of Cups, but not in the romanticized way we often think about with this card. Sure, this card speaks to connection, mutual care, and being seen, but in this episode, I'm more interested in what is hiding underneath all that sweet relational imagery. Inspired by a lively (and opinionated!) book club discussion inside The Symposium, I revisit Jessica Dore's take in Tarot for Change, where she explores the Two of Cups as a mirror - one that reflects not just the other person, but all of our unconscious projections, unmet needs, and early attachment wiring. Spoiler alert: we had a lot to say about her interpretation.I also spend time honoring Paul Quinn's more relational lens from Tarot for Life, and some attachment theory to explore how this card hits differently when you're someone with a dismissive-avoidant style. We talk about the storylines we pick, as Esther Perel says, when we pick a partner - and how intimacy can feel like a high-stakes negotiation when we're secretly wondering if our cup will be too heavy for someone else to hold.There's a big through-line in this discussion around how intimacy and autonomy often feel like opposing forces, but they don't have to be. Eventually, I explore the Devil and Temperance cards (because of course I do) as well as ALL of the cups as a progression of this dynamic. And we end with a beautiful appearance from the Page of Cups, who offers us a gentle reminder that curiosity can be the antidote to defensiveness.This episode is for anyone who's ever felt the ache of wanting to be close to someone, but fearing what it might cost them. We talk childhood attachment wounds, projections, survival strategies, and how tarot can be a tool for navigating all of it…with softness, insight, and just the right amount of therapeutic nerdiness.Books referenced:Tarot for Change by Jessica DoreTarot for Life by Paul QuinnEsther PerelJoin me in unpacking what it really means to offer your cup, and what it takes to believe someone might actually want to hold it.

Over the last few decades, our relationships have become increasingly mediated by technology. Texting has become our dominant form of communication. Social media has replaced gathering places. Dating starts with a swipe on an app, not a tap on the shoulder.And now, AI enters the mix. If the technology of the 2010s was about capturing our attention, AI meets us at a much deeper relational level. It can play the role of therapist, confidant, friend, or lover with remarkable fidelity. Already, therapy and companionship has become the most common AI use case. We're rapidly entering a world where we're not just communicating through our machines, but to them.How will that change us? And what rules should we set down now to avoid the mistakes of the past?These were some of the questions that Daniel Barcay explored with MIT sociologist Sherry Turkle and Hinge CEO Justin McLeod at Esther Perel's Sessions 2025, a conference for clinical therapists.

Are we expecting too much from our jobs - and is it costing us our health, relationships and happiness?   This week I'm delighted to welcome back someone who is regarded as one of the most insightful and original voices on modern relationships, the psychotherapist Esther Perel. Fluent in nine languages, Esther has her own therapy practice in New York City, serves as an organisational consultant for multiple Fortune 500 companies and is ALSO the author of the New York Times Bestselling books, ‘Mating in Captivity' and ‘The State of Affairs'.   Although Esther is probably best known for her teachings and wisdom on our romantic relationships, more recently she has turned her attention to our work relationships. The occasion for this appearance on my podcast is to celebrate the release of her brand new 100-question card game designed to transform your work culture – one story and one relationship at a time.   In this thought-provoking conversation, we explore how our expectations of the workplace have shifted dramatically – and why it's creating both opportunity and strain. Esther shares that in the past, work was primarily about survival, duty and financial stability. But today, many of us are looking to our jobs to provide identity, belonging, fulfilment and even self-worth.   We discuss: Esther's four key pillars of healthy workplace relationships – trust, belonging, recognition and collective resilience – and why these needs mirror those in our romantic lives How unresolved workplace issues can lead to emotional exhaustion, poor health choices and a reduced capacity to connect at home How our increasingly digital lives are reducing the everyday social skills we need to connect, communicate and collaborate How our personal relationship history – our “unofficial CV” – shows up at work and influences how we handle authority, conflict, feedback and boundaries Why managing conflict well can deepen connection – and how curiosity and honest self-reflection can transform how we show up in all areas of life  Throughout our conversation, Esther offers compassion and clarity, breaking down complex emotional patterns into simple, human truths we can all relate to – and, most importantly, act on.    She encourages us to approach work relationships not as transactional, but as relational, inviting us to bring the same level of curiosity, empathy, and accountability that we would bring to any meaningful connection.   At a time when so many of us are feeling isolated or overwhelmed, Esther's advice shows that even small shifts in how we relate, listen and respond can spark meaningful change at work, with our families and ourselves.

This is a classic session, from the second season of How's Work? From day one, they've described their relationship as “tumultuous," but there are highs as well as lows. One is new to the work force, the other is new to this particular work place. One manages the other. And while they like each other on a personal level, they clash over their fundamentally different approaches to getting the job done. Over the last few years, workplace culture has been transformed by remote work, inconsistent in-office presence, and an intergenerational workforce. Where Should We Begin? At Work is a new game designed to transform your work culture – one story and one relationship at a time. Brought to you by Esther Perel and Culture Amp, this isn't your typical icebreaker. It's a new data-backed game that will help you create community at work. Details at www.estherperl.com Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Welcome to the podcast!!! We have a special episode today where the girls explore some alternatives to transitional marriage.  In this thought-provoking episode, our hosts delve into the realm of non-traditional marriages, inspired by a recent Forbes article. They discuss various alternative forms of marriage, including starter marriages, companionships centered around friendship, and parenting-focused unions, among others. The conversation expands to consider how societal expectations shape our perception of marriage, recalling insights from experts like Esther Perel. They reflect on the diverse needs and pressures faced by couples and how these impact the conventional view of marriage. Listeners are encouraged to rethink what commitment means to them and consider how actively choosing their relationship path can offer a more fulfilling life together. Diving into emotional aspects, the hosts explore how these diverse union types can meet different needs and how recognising and navigating these differences can lead to healthier, happier relationships. With humour and candor, they offer a fresh perspective on embracing unique marital journeys that reflect personal values and desires.

Nothing good lasts. Right? In this deeply moving episode, Canadian singer-songwriter Alessia Cara joins Shan Boodram to explore the connection between intimacy, loss, and the fear of death (thanatophobia). Inspired by her song "Sublime" from Love and Hyperbole, Alessia opens up about her personal journey with grief and how it shapes the way she loves and creates. Together, they dive into universal questions: How do we hold on to love while letting go of control? How does the fear of loss impact our relationships, intimacy, and even our everyday choices? Esther Perel talks about how desire and loss can sit right next to each other. This made me think about how those ideas show up in everyday relationships: the death of connection, the slow fading of intimacy, or the fear that something we've built might not last. When you zoom out, so much of how we attach, how we love, and even how we have sex is shaped by that deeper fear, what happens if I lose this? Or if I lose you? Or if I lose me in this?

What if friendship—not romance, not marriage—were the central relationship in your life?That's the question Rhaina Cohen asks in her book The Other Significant Others. And wow, do we love this book. David, TJ, and Elena sat down with Rhaina to talk about what it would mean to build a life around deep, committed friendship—and why our current relationship hierarchy (romantic > everything else) might be due for a rethink.Once you start centering friendship, it starts disrupting many other assumptions. We talked about: what it looks like to live near your friends, how parenting could look different, what happens when friends make commitments, when other people don't recognize those commitments, and whether secular folks should borrow a few ideas from monks.Join us and—if you haven't already—go read the book!About Our GuestRhaina Cohen is an award-winning editor for the NPR documentary podcast Embedded and the author of the national bestseller, The Other Significant Others: Reimagining Life with Friendship at the Center, which Trevor Noah described as "my new Bible."

Description: In the span of a single year, Abby Wambach lost her beloved brother, her wife Glennon Doyle  was diagnosed with anorexia, and her sister-in-law Amanda Doyle was diagnosed with breast cancer. For the first time, the trio who host the wildly popular We Can Do Hard Things podcast, all found themselves simultaneously lost, looking for answers. So they turned toward the only thing that's ever helped them find their way: deep, honest conversations with other brave, kind, wise people. What resulted from those conversations was a myriad of guideposts, words of wisdom from some of the most brilliant wayfinders in the zeitgeist today. In this episode, Jen and Amy talk with Abby and Amanda about some of the most meaningful bits of guidance that they have received from inspirational voices like Elizabeth Gilbert, Jane Fonda, Michelle Obama, Ocean Vuong, Esther Perel,  Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, and others that they have gathered into a new book called, We Can Do Hard Things: Answers to Life's 20 Questions. Some of the conversations they delve into include: Why are we like this? How do we figure out what we really want? How do we let go, or forgive, or get unstuck? Why do we wake up every day having forgotten everything we know? Why self-loyalty is so damn hard for women? Thought-provoking Quotes: “I'm just trying to remain a human in this political environment, in this place of deep fear where so much is at risk. And I think the way we do that is continuing to see each other as human and continuing to let our hearts break over what should break our hearts.” – Amanda Doyle “Having played on many different teams, I'm well suited to work well with others. I just have to be here and be myself. That is the way that I add value. I am not gonna add value in the way that Glennon and Amanda do. I know that. But that doesn't give me any lack of confidence because I know I bring something to the team.” – Abby Wambach “After 400 or so conversations, it was so wild that, whether we were talking to a person who's been a therapist for 40 years, or a person who's a poet, or a person who's an activist, there were just a handful of questions that all of these people are struggling with. The smartest people in the world are trying to figure out the same things that we are.” – Amanda Doyle Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Forward: A Memoir by Abby Wambach - https://amzn.to/4ckZOFi WOLFPACK: How to Come Together, Unleash Our Power, and Change the Game by Abby Wambach - https://amzn.to/4cpazqg We Can Do Hard Things: Answers to Life's 20 Questions by Glennon Doyle, Abby Wambach, and Amanda Doyle - https://amzn.to/3EfeZ6r Glennon Doyle - https://momastery.com/ Amanda Doyle Stops Keeping Score And Stays In The Moment - https://jenhatmaker.com/podcasts/series-60/amanda-doyle-stops-keeping-score-and-stays-in-the-moment/ Brené Brown - https://brenebrown.com/ Kate Bowler - https://katebowler.com/about/ Suzanne Stabile - https://suzannestabile.com/ Guest's Links: Website - https://abbywambach.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/abbywambach/ Twitter - https://x.com/abbywambach Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/abbywambach/ Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCej3anJvC-rSMd63asN8cXg Podcast - https://wecandohardthingspodcast.com/ Guest's Links: Twitter - https://x.com/amandafdoyle Podcast - https://wecandohardthingspodcast.com/ Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.

This time around, we have a bit of a different format, featuring the book that started it all for me, The 4-Hour Workweek. Readers and listeners often ask me what I would change or update, but an equally interesting question is: what wouldn't I change? What stands the test of time and hasn't lost any potency? This episode features two of the most important chapters from the audiobook of The 4-Hour Workweek. The chapters push you to defend your scarce attention—one by saying no to people, the other by saying no to excess information.Sponsors:David Protein Bars 28g of protein, 150 calories, and 0g of sugar: https://davidprotein.com/tim (Buy 4 cartons, get the 5th free.)Our Place's Titanium Always Pan® Pro using nonstick technology that's coating-free and made without PFAS, otherwise known as “Forever Chemicals”: https://fromourplace.com/tim (Shop their Spring Sale today!)AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: https://DrinkAG1.com/Tim (1-year supply of Vitamin D (and 5 free AG1 travel packs) with your first subscription purchase.)*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissPast guests on The Tim Ferriss Show include Jerry Seinfeld, Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, LeBron James, Kevin Hart, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jamie Foxx, Matthew McConaughey, Esther Perel, Elizabeth Gilbert, Terry Crews, Sia, Yuval Noah Harari, Malcolm Gladwell, Madeleine Albright, Cheryl Strayed, Jim Collins, Mary Karr, Maria Popova, Sam Harris, Michael Phelps, Bob Iger, Edward Norton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Neil Strauss, Ken Burns, Maria Sharapova, Marc Andreessen, Neil Gaiman, Neil de Grasse Tyson, Jocko Willink, Daniel Ek, Kelly Slater, Dr. Peter Attia, Seth Godin, Howard Marks, Dr. Brené Brown, Eric Schmidt, Michael Lewis, Joe Gebbia, Michael Pollan, Dr. Jordan Peterson, Vince Vaughn, Brian Koppelman, Ramit Sethi, Dax Shepard, Tony Robbins, Jim Dethmer, Dan Harris, Ray Dalio, Naval Ravikant, Vitalik Buterin, Elizabeth Lesser, Amanda Palmer, Katie Haun, Sir Richard Branson, Chuck Palahniuk, Arianna Huffington, Reid Hoffman, Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Rick Rubin, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Darren Aronofsky, Margaret Atwood, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Dr. Gabor Maté, Anne Lamott, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and many more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

SYNOPSIS:This is a recording of one of our free, live Eventbrite sessions, where Ali Mezey was joined by Jane Peterson, PhD - and you, our audience - for a live, honest, body-centered conversation about the real work of being in relationship.(Yes, this episode includes live audience questions!)Together, we explore how our bodies carry old relational patterns - what Jane calls the "social soma" - and how these hidden imprints can shape the way we love, fight, and stay (or don't stay) connected.We talk about why love alone isn't always enough to align two people's lives, and why asking deeper, more honest questions early on matters so much.Jane shares practical ways to stay close even when life pulls you in different directions: evolving agreements, repairing after hurt, setting shared goals, and building intimacy that grows with you.We touch on marriage, infidelity, and non-traditional relationships with honesty and warmth, offering grounded advice for navigating real-world love.Whether you're partnered, single, or somewhere in between, this conversation will leave you with new ways to understand yourself, your relationships, and the deep intelligence of your body in all of it.To be an angel to the podcast, click hereTo read more about the podcast, click hereMORE ALI MEZEY:Website:  www.alimezey.comPersonal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course information:www.alimezey.com/personal-geometry-foundationsTransgenerational Healing Films: www.constellationarts.comMORE JANE PETERSON:Website: www.human-systems-institute.comContact: humansystemsinstitute@gmail.comBIO:Jane Peterson, PhD, is the co-founder and executive director of the Human Systems Institute, Inc.

Inspired by the work of Esther Perel, we are opening up a conversation around women being more narcissistic lovers. What does this even mean? According to experts, women tend to be more focused on their partner's experience in bed and less focused on their own pleasure. The caretaking cycle remains engaged, leaving many women disconnected and disengaged from their own sex lives. Join Laurie and George today for this riveting conversation on healthy ways women can be more selfish, self-focused and engaged during sex. This episode will have you thinking about what you actually like, find pleasure in, create more desire and assert your needs to your partner. What makes you feel desired, hot and fully in your sexual cycle, not the nurturer you are in day-day life? Both men and women will take away some great tips from this episode and really start to know what makes and keeps it hot!  Please visit this episodes sponsor (and help the pod!)

Cet épisode est tiré de ma newsletter, pour vous abonner c'est ici!!!Comme je vous. le dis je vous remercie mille fois pour me suivre dans cette aventure de Vlan!J'adore mon célibat actuel, cette liberté exquise de décider de mon emploi du temps sans compromis.Et pourtant, je suis un incorrigible romantique !Ce paradoxe délicieux me constitue et colore ma vie de nuances fascinantes.Cette dualité n'est sans doute pas étrangère à mon histoire familiale.J'ai grandi avec des parents qui se sont rencontrés jeunes, ont eu des enfants à 24 et 26 ans et sont restés ensemble jusqu'à la fin malgré les tumultes de la vie – chose de plus en plus rare, j'ai l'impression.Ils ont incarné devant moi la possibilité d'un amour durable, même si le chemin n'était pas toujours facile.N'est-ce pas incroyable que nous puissions simultanément chérir notre indépendance et rêver de construire à deux ?L'amour reste cette aventure extraordinaire qui transcende les époques.Au 18ème siècle, Benjamin Franklin déclarait qu'un "homme sans femme n'est rien d'autre qu'un demi-homme" (on était moins subtil à l'époque...d'autant moins quand on sait que les femmes célibataires étaient, elles, brûlées vivent pour sorcellerie), et aujourd'hui encore, malgré toutes nos avancées, le couple demeure cette quête collective qui nous anime presque tous.Qu'y a-t-il de si captivant dans cette danse à deux ? Pourquoi continuons-nous à nous lancer dans cette entreprise hasardeuse, malgré les cicatrices et les déceptions ?Peut-être parce que l'amour, dans ses plus beaux moments, nous offre cette alchimie rare entre sécurité et aventure, entre connaissance profonde et éternelle découverte.J'ai connu des histoires d'amour intenses - dont une qui m'a conduit à imprimer un livre de 400 pages de nos échanges et à déménager à New York !Ces expériences m'ont transformé, enrichi, parfois blessé, mais jamais je n'ai regretté de m'être lancé et de vivre pleinement les choses (c'est ce que me disais ma psy).Chaque relation a ajouté une couche de compréhension à ma carte du monde émotionnel.À travers cette newsletter, je vous invite à explorer avec moi les mystères et les joies de l'amour moderne, ses défis et ses trésors cachés.Je partagerai mes découvertes (j'ai beaucoup cherché), mes erreurs (nombreuses !) et les pépites de sagesse glanées en chemin.Car si j'ai renoncé au mythe paralysant de l'âme sœur, je n'ai certainement pas abandonné la quête d'un amour authentique et vibrant.Comme l'écriture elle-même, l'amour nous enseigne ce que nous ne savions pas connaître sur nous-mêmes. Embarquons ensemble dans cette exploration joyeuse !Mon parcours amoureux : des cicatrices comme boussoleMa première histoire d'amour a duré sept ans. Je l'ai rencontrée dès les premières semaines d'école de commerce, nous nous sommes fiancés, le mariage était planifié. Vingt ans plus tard, nous sommes toujours proches, mais cette relation était fondamentalement dysfonctionnelle — principalement à cause de moi, je dois l'admettre.J'avais endossé la cape du sauveur pour surmonter ma timidité. Mon besoin d'appartenance était si intense et elle incarnait tout ce que je n'étais pas.C'était profondément injuste pour elle mais j'y reviendrais.J'ignorais alors mes propres besoins, mes névroses, mon style d'attachement.Elle est devenue malveillante malgré elle, et cette histoire était condamnée dès le départ.Ma deuxième relation significative m'a conduit chez un psychologue, perdu que j'étais. Sans doute l'une des décisions les plus sages de ma vie. C'est aussi à cette période que j'ai commencé à consulter des voyantes, cherchant désespérément des réponses que je ne trouvais pas en moi.Puis est venue LA relation passionnelle de ma vie.Une relation tellement intense qu'elle est difficile à expliquer.Pour vous donner une idée: j'ai compilé les trois premiers mois de nos échanges dans un livre de 400 pages imprimé en deux exemplaires (un pour elle et l'autre pour moi), et j'ai déménagé à New York pour elle.Cette femme réputée pour son légendaire self-control ne maîtrisait plus rien non plus.Certains parleraient d'âme sœur ou de flamme jumelle — j'ai cherché toutes les explications possibles. Après quatre ans d'une intensité intacte, elle est partie sans un mot d'explication.Huit ans ont passé, et il m'en a fallu 6 pour m'en remettre. Je le dis ici car dans cette société ou tout va de plus en plus vite parfois on n'accepte plus chez les autres mais aussi chez soi même que certains processus prennent du temps.Quoiqu'il en soit cette rupture m'a transformé.Comme me l'a fait remarquer un ami, peu d'hommes parlent ouvertement de leurs blessures amoureuses. Je n'avais pas le choix — cette histoire m'a bouleversé dans ma chair.Je crois que c'est important d'en parler et c'est la raison pour laquelle j'ai accepté l'invitation d'Anne du podcast Métamorphose à l'époque.C'est essentiel de montrer la vulnérabilité sans faux semblant et que les hommes ne sont évidemment pas insensibles aux ruptures. J'espère que cela aura permis à d'autres hommes de se connecter avec eux même.Et puis, je suis heureux d'avoir fait un kinsugi de cette rupture en co-créant un kit de secours pour cœur brisés.Durant ces six années de deuil, j'ai sabordé des relations avec des femmes extraordinaires, les comparant inévitablement à elle. J'ai finalement réussi à briser ce lien toxique grâce à un travail acharné avec psychologues, énergéticiens, voyantes, astrologues, constellations familiales, et même l'ayahuasca. J'ai tout essayé pour m'en libérer.J'ai su que j'étais guéri quand je suis retombé amoureux. Même si cette nouvelle histoire fut brève pour d'autres raisons, elle a confirmé ma guérison. Aujourd'hui, je reste ouvert à construire quelque chose avec quelqu'un, mais ce n'est pas simple.Les raisons de cette difficulté sont précisément l'objet de cette newsletter et je vous livre ce qui selon moi cloche en 5 grands points !Raison #1 : Nous sommes des idéalistes irréalistes par essenceNous avons grandi bercés par des mythes grecs(ne les sous-estimons pas, ils sont centraux), des histoires comme celle de Roméo et Juliette, des contes pour enfants ou encore des films hollywoodiens qui nous ont fait croire que l'impossible devenait possible par amour.Mais ces récits se concentrent presque exclusivement sur la quête amoureuse, rarement sur ce qui vient après."Ils vécurent heureux et eurent beaucoup d'enfants." Mais qu'est-ce que cela signifie concrètement ? Comment ont-ils géré leurs névroses respectives ? Leurs univers distincts ? Leurs problèmes de communication ? Leurs baisses de désir ? Leurs potentielles tentations extraconjugales ?Dis rapidement, notre idéal romantique est incompatible avec la réalité d'une connexion humaine.Ces expressions comme "ma moitié" sous-entendent que nous serions incomplets avant de rencontrer l'autre. "The one" ou "l'âme sœur" suggèrent qu'une seule personne au monde peut nous convenir.Vous l'aurez compris, j'ai personnellement expérimenté ce mythe de l'âme sœur — et en ai payé le prix fort.Cet idéal présuppose que notre partenaire devrait tout comprendre de nous sans communication verbale, alors même que nous peinons à nous comprendre nous-mêmes (personnellement, je me découvre encore chaque jour).Cela est évidemment accentué par un individualisme (pour ne pas dire égoïsme) sous stéroïdes.L'autre vit dans un univers parallèle, avec un système proche mais fondamentalement différent du nôtre.De manière anecdotique, lors d'un de mes événements sur l'IA, une personne a partagé qu'elle se sentait plus "vue" et "entendue" par ChatGPT que par son médecin ou ses amis.Notre société d'hyper-optimisation nous a fait perdre la capacité à prendre le temps — ou à l'accorder à l'autre.La conséquence est ce manque d'écoute mutuel et donc des incompréhensions en pagaille.Et si vous ajoutez à cela des différences culturelles, comme je l'ai vécu, cela complique encore davantage la situation.Esther Perel m'a fait réaliser que nos attentes sont démesurées : nous demandons à une seule personne de nous apporter ce qu'autrefois tout un village nous fournissait — sécurité, identité, amitié, sexualité, complicité émotionnelle et intellectuelle, goûts communs...Je ne vous fais pas la leçon, je suis le premier à tomber dans ce piège, tout en sachant parfaitement son absurdité.Le couple exige des compromis et un travail constant de construction à deux.Par ailleurs, nous entrons dans une relation avec une vision identitaire, un rêve de qui nous voulons devenir — souvent flou ou fantasmé.Quand on s'engage, ce n'est pas seulement l'autre qu'on cherche, mais une version future de soi-même. Ici aussi je plaide totalement coupable et ma 1ère longue relation s'inscrivait à 200% dans cette dynamique.Mais comme le souligne Esther, ce processus est inconfortable car l'autre ne change pas à notre rythme et ne comprend pas nécessairement le rôle implicite que nous lui avons assigné (m'apaiser, m'ouvrir, m'élever, m'intégrer…).Le changement personnel étant douloureux, nous finissons par reprocher à l'autre ce qui nous fascinait initialement. Ainsi, un partenaire choisi pour sa légèreté devient "irresponsable", une personne stable devient "ennuyeuse"…Le fantasme identitaire se heurte inévitablement à la réalité relationnelle.Et bien sur, les applications de rencontre aggravent le problème en alimentant l'illusion d'une offre infinie, comme si l'amour n'était qu'à un swipe de distance.Pour y avoir passé du temps, je vous rappelle (particulièrement si vous êtes en couple) que c'est aussi illusoire que ces couples Instagram où tout semble parfait.Raison #2 : Les papillons dans le ventre sont souvent un dangereux leurreNous avons tous éprouvé ces fameux papillons dans le ventre, cette sensation vertigineuse que nous pourchassons comme le nectar ultime de l'amour.C'est le moment où nous nous sentons le plus vivants d'ailleurs souvent considéré comme l'indicateur suprême de l'amour véritable.Franchement, quoi de plus délicieux que cette vibration viscérale ?J'adore personnellement cette sensation, mais les avertissements d'Alain de Botton m'ont ouvert les yeux : ce frisson que nous ressentons est très souvent une réaction à quelque chose de familier, parfois simplement l'activation d'un vieux schéma ou d'une blessure non cicatrisée.Voilà pourquoi nous sommes parfois attirés par des personnes qui ne nous conviennent pas du tout.En réalité, nous sommes attirés par ceux qui vont nous faire souffrir d'une manière qui nous est familière.Une relation calme, douce et respectueuse peut nous sembler étrange, "sans passion", voire profondément ennuyeuse, parce qu'elle menace notre scénario intérieur bien rodé.De Botton nous met en garde : ne confondez pas compatibilité avec familiarité traumatique. C'est extrêmement frustrant, car j'aime cette sensation d'intensité.D'ailleurs, même en sachant que c'est un indicateur défectueux, j'adore ces papillons et ce deuil n'est pas facile à faire (long way to go greg…ahahahhah).Alors à quoi se fier si les papillons sont trompeurs ?J'ai découvert que j'appliquais inconsciemment les conseils d'Alain de Botton quand je me sentais particulièrement à l'aise avec quelqu'un.L'une de ses questions préférées: "C'est quoi le weirdo en toi?" Parce qu'en vérité, sans masques ni artifices, nous sommes tous un peu étranges.Je sais que je suis vraiment amoureux quand j'ose révéler mes aspects les plus singuliers sans crainte du jugement, je laisse entrevoir ce qui se passe derrière le masque.Un autre signal essentiel selon lui — et auquel je suis attentif sans vraiment y réfléchir : observer si l'autre personne est capable de reconnaître ses propres biais et imperfections et si elle sait s'excuser quand ils se manifestent.Il faut également s'interroger honnêtement : sommes-nous nous-mêmes capables de cette introspection ? Je ne parle pas de sautes d'humeur passagères, mais de nos véritables zones d'ombre.On peut mesurer l'évolution d'une personne à sa capacité à reconnaître qu'elle est loin de l'idéal.Ce n'est pas quelque chose qu'on peut demander directement ; il faut l'observer à travers l'expérience partagée.L'objectif n'est évidemment pas l'auto-flagellation, mais une lucidité bienveillante sur nos mécanismes.Enfin, il est crucial de déterminer si la personne comprend que l'amour est une compétence plus qu'une émotion. Ressentir, bien sûr, mais surtout comprendre qu'un couple exige un travail commun, des compromis, des discussions et des efforts constants.Une amie a pris la décision d'aller voir un thérapeute de couple dès qu'elle a senti que sa relation devenait sérieuse.Non pas parce qu'ils rencontraient des problèmes, mais pour s'assurer que leur communication resterait toujours fluide.J'ai trouvé cette initiative particulièrement mature et judicieuse.D'ailleurs, je serais curieux de connaître votre opinion à ce sujet que certains pourraient qualifier de « tue l'amour ».Raison #3 : La catégorisation devient notre prison mentaleLorsque j'ai réalisé mon épisode sur les "pervers narcissiques", ma première observation fut celle-ci : quand tout le monde devient pervers narcissique, plus personne ne l'est véritablement.Et cette banalisation est irrespectueuse envers les véritables victimes.Cette réflexion s'applique à toute cette culture de surface et ces catégorisations simplistes que nous accumulons : styles d'attachement, langages de l'amour... sans oublier le mot fourre-tout "toxique", tellement galvaudé qu'il a perdu toute substance.Certes, se positionner sur un spectre a son utilité, mais comme son nom l'indique, c'est un "spectre" — il est rare d'incarner une seule catégorie pure.Personnellement, je trouve difficile d'identifier MON langage de l'amour principal, car tous me parlent profondément.Il en va de même pour la sexualité. Dans ce domaine, j'ai l'impression que nos corps communiquent directement.Certaines connexions sont extraordinaires, d'autres catastrophiques, sans que ce soit nécessairement la faute de quiconque. C'est ainsi, et ce n'est pas grave.Je l'avoue sans souci, j'ai été un « mauvais coup » pour certaines personnes mais j'espère un meilleur pour d'autres.J'ai souvent remarqué que cette alchimie se ressent dès le premier baiser. Cela dit, la sexualité reste un territoire d'exploration infini où nous devons d'abord accepter notre ignorance fondamentale.C'est particulièrement vrai pour les hommes car, d'après mon expérience, les femmes réagissent très différemment aux mêmes stimuli.Je n'ai pas d'expérience avec les hommes, mais j'imagine que c'est un peu plus mécanique — quoique vous pourriez me contredire.Au-delà de l'attraction initiale et des premières années, l'enjeu devient de faire durer le désir. J'ai adoré recevoir Anne et Jean-François Descombe sur ce sujet.Ils encouragent à dépasser l'idée reçue selon laquelle le sexe doit toujours naître spontanément du désir dans un couple établi.En réalité, aussi peu romantique que cela puisse paraître, il est souvent préférable de planifier des rendez-vous intimes, de créer délibérément des moments de connexion et de transcender les conventions en développant une perception corporelle plus subtile.Je n'ai jamais mis cette approche en pratique car ma compréhension de ces dynamiques est arrivée tardivement et mes relations récentes ont été trop brèves pour arriver à cet endroit. Cependant, j'observe que nous sommes souvent complètement déconnectés de nos corps sans même nous en rendre compte, parce qu'ils se protègent naturellement.Il faut réapprendre à ressentir, à ramener la sexualité dans le corps plutôt que dans la tête. C'est un travail considérable (pour moi aussi qui suis tellement cérébral).Raison #4 : Prisonniers de la performance, même dans l'intimitéLa sexualité demeure un enjeu majeur dans les relations, devenant souvent une difficulté dans les couples établis.Je crois que nous sommes conditionnés à la performance dans tous les domaines, alors que l'intimité devrait être précisément l'espace où cette pression n'existe pas.Pourtant, nous sommes obsédés par le plaisir de l'autre, et si nous échouons à l'atteindre, nous remettons tout en question. Cette pression existe pour les hommes, mais je la perçois encore plus forte chez les femmes.Un homme qui n'éjaculerait pas à répétition serait source d'inquiétude majeure pour sa partenaire, et probablement pour lui-même. J'ai conscience que mes propres biais transparaissent ici, mais j'ai l'impression que dans le sens inverse, ce serait moins problématique.Esther Perel dit: "Dis-moi comment tu as été aimé, je te dirai comment tu fais l'amour."Selon elle, notre histoire émotionnelle s'inscrit dans la physicalité de notre sexualité. Personnellement, il y a longtemps, j'entretenais une forme de respect que je qualifierais aujourd'hui de "déplacé" envers mes partenaires — déplacé parce que la sexualité n'implique pas un manque de respect.Typiquement, le problème résidait dans mon rapport à l'autre et à la sexualité en général.Un autre exemple peut être plus parlant pourrait être celui d'une femme qui n'oserait jamais dire à son partenaire qu'elle n'appréciait pas certaines pratiques sexuelles - cela illustre comment des schémas émotionnels anciens (peur du conflit ou de la désapprobation) créent des blocages dans l'intimité physique.Parfois, des couples apparemment harmonieux connaissent aussi des blocages sexuels malgré leur amour et leur entente.Esther Perel a développé toute une méthodologie de questions pour identifier comment nous avons appris à aimer, quelles ont été nos figures protectrices durant l'enfance, et si l'expression de nos émotions et de notre plaisir était considérée comme acceptable.Les réponses à ces questions révèlent comment nos expériences passées façonnent notre "plan érotique" et influencent nos défis émotionnels dans l'intimité.Notre histoire émotionnelle marque profondément notre sexualité, se manifestant à travers nos conditionnements, la reproduction de schémas relationnels, nos peurs de la vulnérabilité et la dynamique même de nos interactions intimes.Heureusement, la sexualité peut également devenir un outil pour accéder à des émotions profondes et résoudre des blocages que nous n'arrivions pas à surmonter autrement.En définitive, je crois que le couple n'existe pas pour "réussir" mais pour nous permettre de "ressentir".Nous devons impérativement nous libérer de cette logique performative et productiviste pour simplement nous sentir vivants.C'est une véritable révolution intérieure qui s'impose.Raison #5 : Nous entrons dans le couple pour évoluer, mais résistons au changementDepuis les Lumières, nous avons élevé l'individualisme au rang de valeur suprême. Comme je l'ai abordé dans une précédente newsletter, nous nous imposons une isolation que nous semblons apprécier, mais qui nous déconnecte de notre humanité fondamentale.La vie de couple exige d'articuler une dynamique entre préservation de son identité propre et connexion authentique avec l'autre.Comme évoqué dans la première raison, nous sommes des idéalistes irréalistes, portés par l'illusion d'un amour parfait qui nous transformerait en une version améliorée de nous-mêmes.Pourtant, lorsque nous nous engageons, cette promesse de métamorphose se heurte à la réalité.Nous ne choisissons pas un partenaire uniquement pour ses qualités ; inconsciemment, nous choisissons aussi une version future de nous-mêmes que nous aspirons à incarner — devenir plus calme, plus fort, plus complet.Esther Perel l'exprime magnifiquement : nous rencontrons l'autre pour retrouver une partie de nous encore inexplorée.Cette promesse d'évolution engendre cependant une tension profonde.Ce qui nous fascinait initialement devient source d'inconfort.Le calme apaisant se transforme en froideur détachée, la liberté joyeuse en irresponsabilité.La vision identitaire que nous avions imaginée entre en contradiction avec la réalité quotidienne du changement.Nous résistons à cette évolution parce qu'elle bouscule notre identité, même celle que nous avions idéalement construite.Le couple devient ainsi un espace paradoxal où nous aspirons à grandir tout en redoutant de perdre notre stabilité.Nous voulons évoluer, mais uniquement à notre rythme, sans que les transformations imposées par l'autre ne remettent en question ce que nous considérons comme notre essence. Ce conflit nous pousse souvent à rejeter ce qui devait nous transformer, à blâmer l'autre pour une inertie que nous percevons comme une trahison de notre idéal initial.Ce tiraillement entre l'envie d'ouvrir un nouveau chapitre et la peur d'abandonner l'image rassurante de notre identité constitue l'une des dynamiques les plus universelles et douloureuses de la vie à deux.C'est pourtant dans cette lutte que réside le potentiel d'une transformation authentique, si nous acceptons enfin le coût du changement intérieur.En conclusion: l'amour comme territoire d'exploration, non de performanceAimer aujourd'hui est difficile, non pas parce que nous serions devenus incapables d'aimer, mais parce que nous attendons de l'amour qu'il résolve tout.Qu'il nous apaise, nous élève, nous stimule, nous révèle.Qu'il nous offre simultanément la sécurité d'un foyer et l'ivresse d'une passion.Qu'il nous soutienne dans les moments difficiles tout en nous laissant respirer quand nous avons besoin d'espace.Ce n'est plus simplement une relation: c'est une architecture existentielle, un miroir identitaire, un incubateur de sens. C'est trop demander.Lorsque la réalité ne correspond pas à cette fiction intérieure, nous résistons.Nous accusons, fuyons ou nous replions.Nous croyons que l'autre nous blesse intentionnellement, alors qu'il réveille en nous des mémoires anciennes, des blessures non cicatrisées, des récits que nous tenons pour vérités absolues. Et nous l'avons vu, les papillons n'y sont pas pour rien…Nous oublions que dans toute relation, il n'existe jamais une vérité unique mais deux narrations distinctes — souvent incompatibles.Nous redoutons également le conflit, que nous confondons avec la fin de l'amour.Je déteste le conflit en bon « gentil », pourtant, un conflit traversé avec conscience est peut-être ce qu'il y a de plus vivant dans une relation.Il ne signale pas l'échec, mais la possibilité d'un lien authentique — non plus idéalisé, mais profondément incarné.Le couple n'a pas vocation à nous rendre heureux comme le ferait un produit fini.Il existe pour nous faire grandir, parfois nous ébranler, souvent nous décaler.Aimer n'est pas maîtriser, ni guérir, ni même comprendre entièrement.C'est oser traverser l'inconfort du lien sans fuir à la première dissonance.C'est abandonner l'idée qu'il existe une méthode parfaite pour aimer, pour embrasser la complexité d'un ch Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : [Solo] Ca veut dire quoi d'être un homme?

Send us a textPassionate relationships require more than love—they need the right psychological dynamics to keep desire alive. When couples come to me feeling more like roommates than lovers, they're often surprised to learn that their sexual disconnection has less to do with libido or attraction and more to do with unrecognized emotional patterns.The truth about passionate marriages might surprise you. While emotional connection matters, your sexual relationship operates with separate dynamics that need specific attention. Differentiation—maintaining your sense of self while being emotionally connected—creates the foundation for desire. As relationship expert David Schnarch explains, people who struggle with differentiation often resort to control tactics or emotional distance rather than healthy interdependence.Your sexual connection is also deeply influenced by context, as Emily Nagoski brilliantly explains. Desire isn't simply spontaneous—it's responsive to your environment and circumstances. This means transitioning from daily responsibilities to intimate connection requires intentional shifts in mindset, not just spontaneous attraction. Meanwhile, Esther Perel reminds us that "fire needs air"—eroticism thrives in the space between partners, requiring some degree of mystery and novelty to remain vibrant.The good news? These dynamics can transform with intentional effort. Start by reconnecting with what makes you feel alive and embodied, practice differentiation by expressing needs without controlling your partner, and prioritize whatever helps you transition into a sensual mindset. Build erotic tension through flirtation and novel experiences, and commit to regular conversations about your sexual connection.Sexual disconnection isn't a life sentence—it's an invitation to grow together. Remember that having differing levels of desire is normal in every aspect of marriage. With understanding and the right tools, you can rediscover the passion that may have temporarily dimmed and create a sexual relationship that's fulfilling for both partners.Have questions about your own relationship dynamics? Reach out to me directly—I'm passionate about helping couples move beyond roommate syndrome to rediscover true intimacy and desire.

She identifies how our rigid belief systems create confirmation bias, causing us to unconsciously seek evidence that reinforces our negative relationship patterns. Perel exposes the fundamental attribution error that plagues many relationships—where we see ourselves as complex while reducing others to simple characteristics—and reveals why turning dates into "job interviews" kills authentic connection.Perel shares transformative insights on conflict, explaining that what truly matters isn't what we fight about but what we're fighting for: care and closeness, respect and recognition, or power and control. Through illuminating examples, she demonstrates how seemingly trivial arguments about cat litter boxes or closet doors actually mask deeper emotional needs rooted in our earliest experiences. This wisdom offers listeners practical tools to break destructive patterns and build relationships based on genuine understanding rather than projected fears.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

Have you heard the term erotic intelligence before?  If you haven't, does it sound like it's all about sex? Before attending a transformative retreat with Esther Perel and Paul Browde, that's kind of what I thought.  Talk about confronting! I had agreed to attend with a friend after her husband dropped out, without knowing the details, because it was in Costa Rica and who would say no to that? I was surprised to learn erotic intelligence is actually about feeling alive and energized in your life, and I walked away with a renewed sense of vitality.  In this episode, I'll share what I learned during the retreat as well as the questions and exercises we walked through to help raise your awareness around erotic intelligence. By the end, I hope you'll feel similarly lit up about life. Read the show notes for today's episode at terricole.com/696

Dr. Keith Baar is a Professor at the University of California, Davis in the Department of Physiology and Membrane Biology. During his Ph.D. studies, his research revealed that mechanical strain on muscle fibers activates the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, a crucial regulator of muscular hypertrophy. Subsequently, he studied the molecular dynamics of skeletal muscle adaptation to endurance training under the guidance of Dr. John Holloszy, a legend in the field of exercise physiology, considered the father of modern exercise biochemistry. Building on all of this experience, he conducted research into tendon health and the potential for engineering ligaments, which could have implications for treatment and recovery from injuries.Sponsors:Cresset prestigious family office for CEOs, founders, and entrepreneurs: https://cressetcapital.com/tim (book a call today)AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: https://DrinkAG1.com/Tim (1-year supply of Vitamin D (and 5 free AG1 travel packs) with your first subscription purchase.)Shopify global commerce platform, providing tools to start, grow, market, and manage a retail business: https://shopify.com/tim (one-dollar-per-month trial period)*Links to everything discussed: https://tim.blog/2025/02/26/dr-keith-baar/Timestamps:[00:00:00] Start [00:07:12] How I discovered Keith's work through a tweet about tennis elbow and rock climbing.[00:07:54] Emil Abrahamsson's hangboard training protocol.[00:09:20] The fundamental principles of strength training and connective tissue adaptation.[00:10:36] mTOR complex 1 and its role in muscle growth.[00:12:06] Engineered ligaments and the discovery of minimal effective doses for tendon adaptation.[00:13:50] The refractory period between optimal tendon loading sessions.[00:16:42] Rapamycin's effects on muscle hypertrophy.[00:18:49] Protocols for tennis elbow rehabilitation.[00:20:28] Why isometrics work better than eccentrics for tendon healing.[00:22:14] Stress shielding and how load distribution affects tendon healing.[00:29:07] The misconception about eccentric loading for tendon injuries and why velocity matters.[00:29:58] Ideal duration for isometric holds (10-30 seconds) based on injury status.[00:33:50] My elbow issues and current rehab approach.[00:36:02] Overcoming vs. yielding isometrics and optimal loading strategies.[00:47:11] Dr. Barr's movement prescription for my tennis elbow.[00:52:18] Loading timing post-surgery and RICE protocol criticism.[00:56:58] Achilles tendon rehabilitation after surgery.[01:00:18] Critique of orthopedic suturing techniques and recommendation for resorbable sutures.[01:04:02] Multiple position isometrics for tennis elbow rehabilitation.[01:07:26] Collagen synthesis, supplementation, and vitamin C timing.[01:12:59] Critique of BPC-157 and other injectable peptides for tendon healing.[01:18:19] Evaluation of orthobiologics' (PRP, prolotherapy, stem cells) effectiveness.[01:21:37] JAK-STAT inhibitor drugs and their effects on tendon growth.[01:25:35] Drugs that increase risk of tendon ruptures (fluoroquinolones, AT-1 receptor drugs).[01:29:33] How estrogen affects tendon stiffness and injury risk in women.[01:32:48] Testosterone's opposite effects on tendon compared to estrogen.[01:35:31] Protein intake recommendations and timing.[01:40:11] Ketogenic diet effects on mitochondrial biogenesis and longevity.[01:41:57] Comparison of ketogenic diet, low protein diet, and rapamycin for longevity.[01:47:19] Inflammation's role in adaptation and when to reduce it.[01:51:17] Timing of ice baths relative to training for optimal recovery.[01:52:33] Parting thoughts.*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissPast guests on The Tim Ferriss Show include Jerry Seinfeld, Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, LeBron James, Kevin Hart, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jamie Foxx, Matthew McConaughey, Esther Perel, Elizabeth Gilbert, Terry Crews, Sia, Yuval Noah Harari, Malcolm Gladwell, Madeleine Albright, Cheryl Strayed, Jim Collins, Mary Karr, Maria Popova, Sam Harris, Michael Phelps, Bob Iger, Edward Norton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Neil Strauss, Ken Burns, Maria Sharapova, Marc Andreessen, Neil Gaiman, Neil de Grasse Tyson, Jocko Willink, Daniel Ek, Kelly Slater, Dr. Peter Attia, Seth Godin, Howard Marks, Dr. Brené Brown, Eric Schmidt, Michael Lewis, Joe Gebbia, Michael Pollan, Dr. Jordan Peterson, Vince Vaughn, Brian Koppelman, Ramit Sethi, Dax Shepard, Tony Robbins, Jim Dethmer, Dan Harris, Ray Dalio, Naval Ravikant, Vitalik Buterin, Elizabeth Lesser, Amanda Palmer, Katie Haun, Sir Richard Branson, Chuck Palahniuk, Arianna Huffington, Reid Hoffman, Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Rick Rubin, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Darren Aronofsky, Margaret Atwood, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Dr. Gabor Maté, Anne Lamott, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and many more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
