Podcasts about healthy relationships

This podcast is about how to build a healthy relationship with yourself. It's about self-trust, identity, boundaries, respect, repair, communication, and consistency. You'll learn the same behaviors and expectations you'd want in a healthy relationship with someone else and how to mirror them back to yourself. I'll talk about showing up for yourself, keeping your word, honoring your limits, supporting yourself with action, holding yourself accountable, and celebrating your growth. It's about trust, loyalty, honesty, patience, encouragement, and vision. If you want to stop betraying yourself and start living with discipline, integrity, and purpose this is where it starts.   Kate Hastings | Mental Health Coach

A strong, healthy relationship is one in which we create a very safe place for each person to be 100% themselves. So many of us did not learn growing up what it means to be in a relationship this way.  If you're like me, you thought that growing up and getting married would mean that you would have someone to love you, to shore up your insecurities, to validate you, or to agree with your opinions.  Strong, happy relationships are places to learn how to be more loving and kind and show up in a space of US rather than a space of ME.  In this podcast we are digging a little deeper into what it means to show up in relationship to create a safe space for our partner.

A sermon from Ephesians 4:25-27.Speaker: Gregory W Mathis.Series: LIFE IN CHRIST: A Study of Ephesians. Delivered: August 10, 2025.

From grandma's kitchen to Ozempic - how eating got so complicated. This condensed version of the full-length documentary unpacks the surprising history behind food confusion, the tricks used by the diet and processed food industries, and what GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic really mean for the way we eat.

The divide between men and women has never been more pronounced in our culture, especially when it comes to who bears responsibility for healing relationship wounds. Drawing from years of experience as a counselor and my own personal journey, I tackle the dangerous tendency to place blame solely on one gender while absolving the other.Most relationship discourse online falls into one of two extremes – either men need to do all the emotional work while women are already evolved, or women are manipulative while men are just logical beings responding to provocation. Both narratives miss the fundamental truth that healing requires mutual accountability. As someone who's witnessed countless therapy sessions where men and women voice remarkably similar complaints about their partners, I can attest that shadow work isn't gender-specific.What makes someone truly attractive goes beyond physical appearance or social status – it's their commitment to self-awareness, their ability to own their past without blaming others, and their courage to remain open despite previous hurts. This balance of strength and vulnerability creates a magnetic presence that transcends conventional attractiveness. The "Holy Trinity," as I playfully call it, is emotional maturity, a good heart, and yes – physical attraction matters too.My personal battle with chronic pain following botched surgeries has taught me that making excuses never empowers us – only taking action does. The same principle applies to our relationships. We can't control how others show up, but we can control our own healing journey. When both partners commit to doing 100% of their own work rather than a transactional 50/50 split, relationships transform from battlegrounds into sacred spaces of growth.Are you ready to move beyond blame and into the challenging but rewarding space of mutual healing?

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're sharing the relationship habits that have actually helped us (and YOU GUYS) stay connected as new parents — from daily 15-minute check-ins to remembering not to “talk through” your baby.

Financial Peace Plan/Financial Peace Plan Especially in the early stages of business, when wearing many hats, it's easy to let focus on the finances slide.  This can leave many Christian Business owners feeling overwhelmed by the financial chaos.  Wanting to adhere to the teachings of our Christian faith can further confuse how we should be approaching our finances in business and life, and what we should be doing and avoiding doing.

Episode 2674: David and Constantino Khalaf explore how healthy dependence, rather than complete self-reliance, can foster deeper intimacy and emotional connection in relationships. By shifting from “I'll do it myself” to “How can we do this together?”, couples can strengthen their bonds through vulnerability, mutual influence, and intentional acts of connection. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.gottman.com/blog/healthy-dependence-healthy-relationships/ Quotes to ponder: "Depending on others is part of our genetic makeup, our emotional dependence on loved ones remains strong." "Being depended on helps Constantino feel that he is appreciated and useful in our marriage rather than feeling left out or neglected."

In this heartfelt and highly practical episode of Faith Talks, Janna and Anna Faith return in person to continue their series on “Faith Over Fear.” Today's focus is the often-overlooked yet deeply personal fear of communication—whether it's not knowing who to talk to, what to say, or when to say it. They candidly share biblical wisdom, personal stories, and real-life encouragement to help you overcome fear and choose faith in your daily conversations.Topics DiscussedThe spiritual power of the tongue (James 3)Fears surrounding communication: who, how, what, and whenHonoring parents through open communication (Ephesians 6:2)Speaking truth even when it's hard (Proverbs 12, 27)Moses' fear of speaking and God's promise to help (Exodus 4)Giving grace in speech (Colossians 4:6)Personal stories of bitterness, forgiveness, and reconciliationSimple steps for starting spiritual conversationsCreative methods for difficult conversations (writing letters, texting)Pouring your heart out to God (Psalm 62:8)Key TakeawaysCommunication is one of the most powerful tools God has given us, and it should be stewarded in faith, not fear.Speaking the truth—especially when it's hard—is not only obedience to God but a gift to those around you.God promises to help us communicate when we feel weak or inadequate—He made our mouths (Exodus 4)!Reconciliation and honesty bring spiritual freedom, even when they take time or courage.When you pour out your fears to God, you'll find the strength to speak with grace, humility, and purpose.Faith Talks is a monthly program on the Thee Generation podcast designed to help young ladies discover greater ways to nurture and exercise their faith in their day-to-day walk with Christ.

Episode 290 of the PBSE Podcast explores a powerful question submitted by a betrayed partner whose addict husband is in active recovery but refuses to discuss his past. The discussion centers on what real intimacy requires—emotional nakedness, vulnerability, and the willingness to be known. While many addicts hold back due to fear, shame, or cultural conditioning, we unpack how these barriers undermine authentic connection in relationships. Intimacy is described as a process of “emotional disrobing,” where both partners share parts of themselves in increasing depth to build emotional closeness.We argue that the past is never truly in the past—it shapes our present behaviors, beliefs, and relationships. Refusing to share one's past doesn't make it irrelevant; it only creates confusion and distance. For a partner to heal and understand the addict's behaviors, context is essential. Without that, partners are left guessing and often interpret behavior as hatred or rejection rather than unhealed trauma. Disclosure doesn't excuse past harms, but it provides meaning and supports empathy, healing, and deeper trust.Ultimately, a couple can technically survive without full transparency, but they cannot thrive. Choosing to withhold emotional truths places a glass ceiling on the relationship's potential. Vulnerability is scary, but it's the only path to real, lasting intimacy. Through formal disclosure processes, safe conversations, and daily acts of honesty, couples can build something far deeper than simple sobriety—a relationship rooted in truth, empathy, and enduring connection.For a full transcript of this podcast in article format, go to: Can I Have a Healthy Relationship with my Addict Partner without him Sharing His Past?  Learn more about Mark and Steve's revolutionary online porn/sexual addiction recovery and betrayal trauma healing program at—daretoconnectnow.comFind out more about Steve Moore at:  Ascension CounselingLearn more about Mark Kastleman at:  Reclaim Counseling Services

As a dad, I've learned over and over that I need to choose my words carefully. I'm usually reminded after moments of being very careless with my words. Proverbs 12:18 tells us that “Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.” I read that and can only respond with one word. . . . “Guilty!” I've thrown reckless words around my relationships with abandon, especially with those who live under my roof. Reckless words are not only harmful to our communication, but to our relationships with our kids. Stuff that mindlessly rolls off our tongues in a rage-filled or careless moment can stick with them forever. Taking the time to habitually think before we speak is an investment that will pay great dividends in strengthened parent/teen relationships and positive parental influence. A necessary mark of healthy relationships is that we are dads and moms who always take the time to think before we speak.

 Are you constantly wondering if that "quirk" is actually a warning sign? In "Decoding Disaster," we dive deep into the often-ignored, sometimes-subtle, and always-critical red flags that pop up in relationships. Join LET THE STREETS REJOICE Podcast as they share personal anecdotes, expert insights, and listener stories to help you identify manipulative behaviors, unhealthy patterns, and compatibility mismatches before they lead to heartbreak. From gaslighting and love bombing to control issues and a lack of empathy, we'll equip you with the tools to spot the danger zones and build healthier, happier connections. 

You walk into an emotionally abusive relationship as one person, but where do you go after you're in one for a while? Is the person you're with trying to change you into someone you're not? 

Mindset Improvement Strategies/Mindset Training   The human mind is an enigmatic labyrinth, harboring a vast reservoir of untapped potential. Our subconscious mind, in particular, is a powerful force that influences our thoughts, beliefs, and actions in ways we often fail to comprehend. The idea that we can harness this hidden powerhouse and train it to work in our favor has captivated thinkers, philosophers, and scientists throughout history.   Our guest in this episode has discovered why we act and react habitually, why we make the choices we make, and what causes us to either take action or sit on the sidelines as we watch life pass us by.   Because of this, Subconscious Mindset Training™ utilizes scientifically proven tools and techniques that quickly align your subconscious mind with exactly what you desire; to get your entire mind system working on autopilot.   Joey Drolshagen was a  former VP of Sales over multiple corporations.

Artificial intelligence is changing how we experience relationships, and not always for the better. In this episode, we are joined by guest Adam Dodge, founder of EndTAB (End Tech-Enabled Abuse), to unpack the growing role of AI and digital tools in gender-based violence and intimate relationships. EndTAB works with victim service providers and community organizations to help them confidently address and prevent technology-facilitated harm. Their work covers everything from image-based abuse and tech safety planning to digital breakups and healthy masculinity in the age of AI. Today's conversation gets into the drawbacks and benefits of AI and how to navigate this rapidly changing landscape. We explore how AI companions are influencing relationships, how AI is hypersexualizing girls and women, the impact of algorithm-driven misogyny on young boys, and the need for emotional literacy in both kids and adults. Adam also shares practical steps for advocates and parents to support young people to help them safely navigate these technologies. Join us for this essential conversation on safety, consent, awareness, and what it means to build real relationships in the era of AI.
