How to Craft the Love Relationship of Your DreamsAre you feeling stuck in a dead-end relationship? Do you want more in your romantic life but are afraid to let go of what you have? From a lack of sex or emotional intimacy to ongoing conflict, issues often arise in relationships that leave one or both partners feeling distressed. And in my work with individuals and couples, I've found that many people can't decide if it's best to leave a romantic relationship or stay in it for the long haul. It's no easy matter. And, the truth is, no one can tell you what path you should take; the decision--as hard as it might be--is ultimately up to you. In this episode, I'm joined by an international relationship and intimacy coach Ken Blackman who will help us dive deep into knowing when you might want to commit fully--or when you might want to let go. Topics discussed include sexual intimacy, infidelity, sex, connection, emotional connection, love, marriage, dating, love life, agreements, conflict, red flags, dealbreakers, divorce, commitment, betrayal, office romance, emotional infidelity, infidelity, narcissism, NPD, narcissistic personality disorder, abusive relationships, gaslighting, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, physical abuse, spiritual abuse, communication, meditation, and mindfulness.Please note that this episode contains sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Note: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.

Our whole lives are sex. Yes, you read that right. And I don't mean it literally. Sometimes sex is boring; other times, it is exciting–which is pretty much like it. Here's a truth about sex– it's not just about you getting an orgasm; forget about penetration; it's just part of it. The truth is, sex feels good and even feels best when it touches parts of us that haven't felt good in a while; it could be our fears, our traumas, our insecurities, or whatever that isn't feeling good inside of us, or it could be just pure connection. What feels good happens everywhere, not just in the bedroom. In today's episode of The Better Sex Podcast, Ana Del Castillo is a Rightness Expert & Certified Coach with over 20 years of experience working with men and women who have great lives but still always feel like there's something wrong. By addressing the underlying source of their suffering, Ana creates transformative experiences for her clients so they can own their inherent rightness and feel vital and alive in their skin and lives again. An energetic, warm and empathetic leader, Ana has spoken to audiences all over the country and has coached women rock stars, entrepreneurs, and homemakers on the power and freedom of authentic rightness, whose name appeared on NPR, the NY Post, People Magazine, and The Moth. Ana coaches, speaks, and leads courses on Rightness, married to the love of her life, Ken Blackman.

Show Notes:What does it mean to be in a fulfilling meaningful relationship with someone? How do intimacy & sex complicate that relationship? Enter Ken Blackman, known relationship coach who’s guidance for couples seeks to foster deeper relationships between partners. In this podcast, Kevin delves into the complex dynamic of how relationships can often bring out both the best (& worst) in people working together. Ken draws from years of experience in coaching couples to provide sound advice in helping partners meet mutual goals: both professionally and sexually.From a coaching perspective, Ken believes that perception remains one of the strongest influences in our personal relationships with others. Projecting negativity can manifest poor life experiences. However you feel about yourself is also what you are destined to attract. As feelings about ourselves change for the better, so will those forces gravitate towards us. Mentors are instrumental in helping us see ourselves differently and drag us out of ruts.They help us to relate with ourselves and others differently.Ken explains about deconstructing historical stereotypes of gender roles within society and how they influence our interpersonal relationships. Helping people recognize WHAT goals people seek out in others and within their relationships has become Ken’s focus. There is no new “model” or template by which to set relationship roles. There is no “producer” or “protector”, so Ken is working on organizing that modern dynamic in his new book.Ken's primary Key Performance Indicator by which he measures relationship success is: Are they generally happy on a day to day basis - do they operate from a point of generosity? (willing to give unto the others) In a happy relationship people look for ways to serve others. Society will sometimes try to whitewash a stigma of women being primary breadwinners within a household. Couples that are attracted to Ken are normally when SHE is stepping into her power and how to go about setting up that dynamic. That dynamic isn’t flipped, it is dismantled and requires an entirely new mindset for a prosperous future.Key Points From This Episode:-Lasting relationships require partners to recognize and nourish what the other brings to the table.-Ken explains Key Performance Indicators (KPI) for good relationships.-There is no secret formula for setting a baseline of relationship dynamic in society.-Sometimes the greatest barriers are those that we create for ourselves.-Much of the techniques used by Ken are from experience with previous couples.-Challenging societal stereotypes can be a challenge in changing public opinion on breadwinners in relation to gender roles.-Reforming corporate stereotypes with relationships can help modernize the workplace.-As a woman steps into her power, couples need a new understanding of their relationship.Tweetables:“In a healthy relationship, couples are looking to do more for each other.” - Ken Blackman (26:47)“In clients (men) you work with, these are common threads (gender societal stereotypes) that are put upon people.” - Cassandra Shuck (17:56)“We no longer operate from that old (traditional) model of masculinity.” -Ken Blackman (18:57)Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode:Cassandra ShuckKen BlackmanSex & Connection Blog

Having a powerful love life truly starts as a party of one. This episode explores what makes a gourmet love life in the first place, how we thrive in our relationships, looking back on our love story with eyes wide open, understanding how our preferences and needs have emerged in life after loss, how we can turn toward ourselves as a source of love, and how self love is truly our most important relationship. Tender curiosities: Do you have this awful feeling that you are being disloyal to your previous beloved by secretly hoping for a powerful new love? Are you longing for someone to choose to love you again? Do you stuff your starvation for physical and emotional connection due to an intense shame you feel around that? The three most common hurdles to creating a deeply satisfying love life, and how your “checklist” might actually be keeping you from getting over them. Today we are coloring way outside the lines of grief support as we get real about sexual healing. Our guest was a socially awkward software engineer who learned how to give women pleasurable orgasms and developed a capacity for intimacy he didn’t realize he was hungry for. Ken Blackman then decided to become a rebel relationship myth-buster and has an 18-year track record of happy couples. Connection is a nutrient that helps us feel satiated. Join us for a taste of guilt-free recipes for a gourmet love life.

“We’re all human beings and we all crave connection with other human beings.”In this episode, I get to speak with the incredible Ken Blackman - a sex and relationship expert who focuses on sex, intimacy, and connection.I believe your life is a product of your relationships - whether that’s with your friends, parents, your partner, your kids, or your work colleagues. In my own life I’ve found that the better your relationships, the better your life becomes so I couldn’t wait to get an expert perspective on something we all struggle with to some degree.We’re social beings - we CRAVE connection - but it’s also an area of lives where we can find it difficult to have what we really want.And in this episode, you’ll get some insights that will help you understand why that is.“Courage is NOT fearlessness.”Although Ken has been coaching for over 20 years, he wasn't always a relationship expert. Previously, he worked at Apple, but he found his true passion after struggling with intimate relationships himself.Ken used to believe he had it all going against him - that he was a ‘hopeless case’. He didn’t see himself as attractive or charming. Instead, he saw himself as short, shy, and introverted - until he changed ONE thing.And that’s just one of the topics we cover in this deep conversation.So if you’re socially awkward, or you struggle with intimacy, or you just find connection hard, you’re going to want to tune into this episode. I promise you’ll take away some insight and some practical ideas that are going to transform the way you interact with the people in your life.So enjoy!“I learned that the only thing that mattered in my relationships is how I felt about myself.” Some questions I ask: Let’s go back to that first year. How did you become a relationship expert, what drew you to that, and how was it starting something new when you came from a corporate background. [1:10]You mentioned that what happens in the bedroom is a microcosm for what’s happening in the entire relationship. What role does self-awareness play in this? [4:55]What are some of the things you did that made you feel good about yourself? [7:21]Do you think self awareness and self belief are the same thing? [8:36]Why do you think facing your fears allowed you to feel better about yourself and shaped the man you are today? [10:22]How do you turn things around if you’re afraid of social situations? [14:45]Is vulnerability an absolute must for connection? [17:00]How does emotional intelligence help you build a fulfilling life? [22:16]How can you develop intuition and then use it to make sound decisions? [32:56]Does the fear voice get quieter or does it get smarter? [37:10]How do the best relationships stay grounded? [48:25] In this episode, you will hear about: How Ken’s relationship challenges and the transformation he personally experienced, kick-started his coaching journey.[2:51]Why changing the way you feel about yourself can change your experience in relationships. [7:00]The important difference between having an emotion and feeling an emotion. [8:50]Why you should say the elephant in the room if you’re feeling socially awkward. [15:36]What emotional intelligence actually is. [20:05]The real reason we’re drawn to another human being (it’s not what you think!) [23:37]‘Spidey sense’ - what guys (in general) are really looking for in a relationship. [27:25]All about Gourmet Love Life. [44:47]Why we judge our emotions.

Ken Blackman is truly a master of the dynamic interplay between men and women. Having been first a student and then a teacher of relationships, sexuality and communication, Ken doesn't tell the story of men and women quite as conventionally as all the other relationship experts out there. I hope this interview rocks your world as much as Ken's teaching has mine. Ken's website: www.kenblackman.com Ken's writing: https://medium.com/straight-talkers

There are many men in the world who seem to be succeeding at everything, except when it has something to do with women. Ken Blackman was once one of those men until he figured out that he needed to shut off that part of his brain that is asking for instructions and instead just let intuition take over. He has been teaching couples for 18 years on how to get to this channel of intuition, so they can get into a deeper level of intimacy and communicate each other’s emotions and energies. Ken defines great sex is one that gets better continuously and the ideal place to get this great sex life is through committed relationships. Love the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share!

[Listen on iTunes] KEN BLACKMAN is a sought-after lecturer and coach, teaching workshops worldwide and working one-on-one with select clients from SF, LA and NY to London, Paris, Sydney and Bali. His approach is brash, unorthodox and effective. He was one of the principal architects of a curriculum that is now shifting the world conversation around sex and human relating through OneTaste. His main focus these days is on custom-tailoring relationships to be resilient, passionate, intimate, connection-rich and deeply fulfilling. In this episode we talk about: Ken’s journey - from feeling unlikable and unattractive to now teaching men and women all over the world how to have resilient and deeply gratifying relationships. Why trying to be attractive to women is the thing that’s keeping you from being attractive to women. Quotes from this episode: The one thing that I want all guys to get is that the you that’s actually in there is 10x more attractive than the you that you’re trying to pretend to be. The divorce rate is really high. But also people who are together have got all the checkmarks marked off but they’re not happy. What happened? I had women who were willing to tell me the truth and start to train me in what they wanted and it was nothing like what I thought. Resources from this episode: www.kenblackman.com

Want to date and be in relationship with beautiful, successful women? Ken Blackman drops some compelling wisdom and advice on how to be confident around powerful femininity.
Approximately 15-20% of couples are in sexless relationships (including marriages). Both men and women want satisfying sex and fulfilling dating and relationship lives -- so how do we get there? Ken Blackman, relationship expert, breaks down how to get the sex & orgasms back.
Polarity is complex and involves a number of dynamics, including men leading and women surrendering (both in sex and outside of it). But it also involves relationship "landmines" -- topics you both avoid because you're afraid it'll blow up your relationship. Here we delve into that, and the surprising sexual energy released when you both finally tell the truth.
