Have you ever felt so burnt out on dating you wanted to give up? This may sound counterintuitive but we're talking about how decentering men and dating could be the key to removing this dating exhaustion – and ultimately finding your person. We're talking with comedian Allison Goldberg about how she shifted her dating strategy to staying open to meeting someone but not making her whole life centered around it. We're discussing the difference of decentering vs not trying at all, how to avoid slipping into the line of heterofatalism, and tangible ways you can build an incredible life that someone is only so lucky to join.

America isn't having a political debate. America is having a nervous system collapse.We're living inside a culture that feels like fight-or-flight with a microphone—where fear becomes identity, identity becomes rage, and rage becomes normal.In this episode, Dr. John delivers a ruthless, practical framework for what's actually driving polarization: our collective “Director of Defense” is running the country—powered by shame, contempt, humiliation, and tribal certainty—while our CEO (the wise adult part of us) gets bound and gagged in the bathroom.Because what we're calling “politics” right now is a culture-wide pattern of fear + humiliation + contempt—a recipe that historically precedes three things:authoritarian drift, moral collapse, and social violence.And the most dangerous paradox in America is this: when you fear authoritarianism, you start sounding authoritarian. When you hate moral collapse, you start treating people immorally.You'll learn the CEO behaviors that stabilize culture at scale: how to stop feeding contempt (the most addictive drug in politics) how to model due process when your side is furious how to practice nuance as strength, not weakness how to lower threat so people can think again Your job isn't to be loud.Your job is to be steady—because the future of democracy is shaped by millions of tiny interactions… and you're in more of them than you think. If you want less extremism, less dehumanization, and less authoritarian energy, here's the hard truth:You don't get there by embarrassing scared people.You get there by regulating the room—starting with yourself.PODCAST LINKS FOR NOTES:Want a Higher Baseline of Calm, Confidence, and Control?

Send a textLove isn't built in the big romantic moments. It's built in the small, ordinary ones most people overlook. In this episode of Girls Gone Gritty, the hosts unpack what love really looks like beyond attraction, especially after Valentine's Day. They share how meaningful relationships are shaped by daily effort, communication, and intentional connection rather than grand gestures.The conversation explores both the classic five love languages and a newer, expanded model that includes emotional support, intellectual connection, financial security, and practical teamwork. Listeners are reminded that love often shows up through everyday acts like helping with responsibilities, listening deeply, or creating shared experiences. The episode also weaves in personal stories about family bonds, parenting, and partnership, reinforcing that love is rarely glamorous. It is gritty, imperfect, and requires patience. A powerful takeaway is that the “little things” consistently matter more than the big things. When people intentionally show appreciation and presence in everyday life, relationships grow stronger and more resilient.Ultimately, this episode encourages listeners to look for simple ways to demonstrate love daily because those small actions create lasting connections.Resources mentioned:https://www.instagram.com/reels/DUynO0uEqbM/https://www.instagram.com/p/DUy29yTgX7F/?igsh=YnNtNnhxYXVlZ2dlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuuWEhT9P3AEpisode Highlights:(0:00) Intro(0:55) Post-Valentine reflections and Unblinded event discussion(3:47) Olympic headlines and trending stories segment(8:31) Why love matters more than anything(8:49) History and meaning of Valentine's Day(10:37) The five traditional love languages explained(12:18) The seven modern love language framework(15:10) Communication and intellectual connection in relationships(16:32) Physical affection beyond intimacy(17:31) Practical partnership and shared responsibilities(18:32) Everyday moments that build deep bonds(19:34) Love is gritty, imperfect, and intentional(20:24) Trust and respect as relationship pillars(22:04) Got Grit story: resilience through tragedy(23:55) Life is short, so love deeply(24:08) Song of the week and gratitude message(25:24) Outro Support the showFollow us: Web: https://girlsgonegritty.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/girlsgonegritty/ More ways to find us: https://linktr.ee/girlsgonegritty

Jonathan Pokluda (JP) joins Sadie and Christian for a wide-ranging conversation that goes everywhere—in the best way. They cover Christian's beard (and his tendency to “smack”), dating red flags, church hurt, “superstitious” prayers, awkward preaching moments, and the big question: is it wise to date someone battling a sin addiction like pornography? JP also shares about his involvement in a biblical matchmaking initiative called Qualified Date, where the goal isn't just vibes—it's lifelong marriage. The focus is on faith, community, and trusting God to connect you with someone truly qualified (yes, we're redefining your “type”). Known for breaking down big, complicated ideas with clarity and honesty, JP brings both humor and depth. He also shares a powerful health update after a nightmarish 17-day hospital stay that left him unable to walk. It's honest, hopeful, and the kind of conversation that might just change how you see dating, faith, and the people trying to set you up.

Impact and blame are not the same thing, and horses need our clarity far more than our guilt. Together, we unpack how love can create blind spots, why discomfort is often a sign of growth, and what accountability looks like when it makes us more capable instead of smaller. A steady conversation for anyone learning to stay open, listen deeper, and do differently once they know better.Come and learn with Lockie in the EH SCHOOL, a low-cost, high value, flexible community where a video library, discussion forum (off social media) and live coaching calls with Lockie help you get to the heart of the matter with your horsemanship.https://emotionalhorsemanship.com/eh-school-sign-upCome and learn with Lockie inside the EH School.

If you've ever looked at your partner in the parenting trenches and thought, “Wait… who are you—and what happened to us?” this episode is for you. Dr. John sits down with Eli Weinstein—therapist, no-BS truth-teller, and author of From I Do to We Do (out March 2026)—to unpack why couples drift after kids… and how to rebuild the “we” without buraning the whole house down. You'll hear the real stuff:  why new dads can love their kids but not always like them (and why that doesn't make you a monster),  how men get trapped between “be strong” and “be emotional,”  and what happens when a partner asks for feelings… then punishes vulnerability.  John and Eli also dig into the heavy reality therapists carry—especially with suicidal clients—and the skill of caring deeply without being crushed by it. The practical gold is Eli's “holy trinity” for relationship peace: expectations, perceptions, and reality—plus a simple daily check-in that prevents 90% of avoidable fights (Listen to discover this cheat code!). Add in “assume positive intent,” “treasure hunt” for what your partner does right, and a mindset shift toward rewarding effort over outcome—and you've got a blueprint for staying connected when life is chaos. Want a Higher Baseline of Calm, Confidence, and Control?

Most people say they want love, then date like they're configuring a device: height, income, politics, trauma level, texting cadence, therapy status, “emotional intelligence,” travel appetite—tick, tick, tick. It feels safe. It feels efficient. It feels like control. But love isn't mechanical. People aren't programmable. They have grey areas: prickly parts, warm parts, avoidant parts, tender parts, contradictions, history. A checklist can't measure inner world alignment, truth-telling, repair ability, or whether two people can actually build safety together. I unpack how romantic idealism can make you naïve—especially when you grew up in warmth and assume everyone else did too. Then reality hits: people don't always tell the truth, not always under pressure, and if you don't interrogate someone's inner world you end up in cycles that feel “mystical” but are actually predictable scripts. The shift is simple: keep your values, drop the robot requirements. Choose moment-to-moment evidence. Build the skill of doing things well with people—clarity, repair, accountability, warmth. Then create a vehicle for connection that's alive, consistent, and real. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

#surrogacy #ivf #surrogateBrittany's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pavinourway?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==Shelbie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/surroshelbie?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==Most people ask the same question first: “Don't you get attached to the baby?” We take that head on with two experienced gestational carriers who explain, with compassion and clarity, how surrogates prepare, set healthy boundaries, and celebrate the handoff without trying to keep what was never theirs. The story here isn't about loss—it's about stewardship, respect, and the euphoria of seeing parents meet their child.We talk candidly about where real attachment lands: with the intended parents and the shared mission. You'll hear how early transparency, a thoughtful match, and clear agreements create trust from transfer to delivery. Our guests share why emotions run high at birth (and why those tears aren't about “giving up” a baby), how they navigated faith and family pushback, and the surprising reason many surrogates choose to do it again. We also explore the underrated power of closure—brief private time after delivery that helps a surrogate's kids say goodbye and marks the end of a profound chapter.If you're a first‑time surrogate, an intended parent, or simply curious, this conversation offers practical guidance: what to include in your agreement, how to set communication expectations, and ways to talk to your children in clear, age‑appropriate language. We highlight the role of supportive agencies, the strength of modern surrogate communities, and the difference between love, care, and parental attachment. By the end, you'll understand why surrogacy is less about possession and more about precise, generous care.Listen now, share with someone who still confuses love with attachment, and help us spread informed, human‑centered surrogacy education.

In this episode of The Evolved Caveman Podcast, we're not debating policies—we're talking biology.If you've felt chronically irritated, restless, impatient, exhausted, or weirdly numb and checked out, there's a reason: your nervous system doesn't experience politics as “ideas.” It experiences threat, instability, conflict, and unpredictability—and the last decade delivered a steady stream of highly stressful signals (read: big and little T trauma!).Not one trauma—thousands of hits. Big spikes and constant low-grade agitation. And men tend to adapt in predictable ways: fight (snap, rage, argue), flight (overwork, disengage, numb out), freeze (hopelessness, procrastination), or fawn (minimize, comply, “it's not that bad”).You're not weak. Your nervous system simply adapted.This episode gives you the reframe that ends the self-judgment—and a practical path back to safety, clarity, and agency: reduce re-exposure, re-anchor in the body, restore choice, and engage from regulation instead of reactivity. Because a regulated man is harder to provoke, harder to divide, and a hell of a lot more effective.(With a key insight from Terry Real: “If it's hysterical, it's historical.”) Quick listener promises:  Understand why politics can dysregulate you even if you “don't follow it”  Spot your default state: fight / flight / freeze / fawn  Learn why “more information” won't fix a body-level threat response  Get concrete reset steps to rebuild steadiness and agency Want a Higher Baseline of Calm, Confidence, and Control?

In this week's episode I'm diving into a raw and vulnerable inquiry of motherhood, parenting and how we can start bringing maturation into how we parent our children. Not just for mothers or parents, but for your relationship with your own parents. This is one of the most challenging topics because it carries so much within all of us. My intention is that in this episode, you can hear yourself and that it will help you not just understand more deeply why you are the way you are, but also if you are a parent, that it might liberate you from trying to ‘do it the perfect way.' We'll dive into how our identities are formed in childhood, the impact of who parents are being (not what they were doing), and a new, much more mature paradigm for parenting. A paradigm for parenting that breaks generational patterns. Because the greatest gift we can give our children is to mature beyond the root of our own survival, not only shifting us, but shifting how our children experience and perceive themselves. —You'll Learn:How parenting is deeply interconnected with our own childhood experiencesThe missing distinction in parenting: Doing vs. BeingHow to parent with maturation The most powerful thing we as parents can do for our children (and it's not ‘doing better')And lot's more!— Ready to Go Deeper? ✉️ Join our mailing list here: https://nickyclinch.activehosted.com/f/27Receive weekly deep teachings and reflections from Nicky to mature your being and shift from survival to freedom.

email me your questions at cpsychic@cpsychicreadings.comIf you've been visualizing, scripting, affirming — and still finding yourself stuck in the same romantic patterns… this episode is for you.So many people are trying to manifest love the same way they manifest money or  or other goals. But love doesn't respond to techniques.It responds to your energy. Your nervous system. Your emotional availability.In this episode, I'm sharing the deeper truth about why love manifestation often feels frustrating or ineffective — and what actually creates real, aligned connection.This isn't about forcing outcomes or calling in a specific person. It's about clearing emotional patterns, regulating your inner world, and aligning with the experience of healthy love — not just the idea of it.If you've been feeling confused, tired of repeating cycles, or quietly wondering what you're doing wrong… you're not broken.And sometimes the real manifestation isn't attracting someone new — it's becoming ready to receive something real.If you'd like to book a psychic reading to learn more about your specific love patterns and blockages you can do so here: https://cpsychicreadings.com/psychic-readingsSupport the showWant to support the show?

I think people assume if you've never had a relationship… it means:
You don't want one
You're emotionally unavailable
Or something is “wrong” And I used to internalize that. But the truth is… I've wanted connection. I've just been learning myself at the same time. And sometimes when you're still learning yourself… you attract people who are also unfinished emotionally. Which creates connections… but not commitment.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/talkbac-with-bryan-a-cooksey--2950437/support.

You can't change what you don't feel.Ever notice how fast anger shows up the moment you realize you messed up?You cut someone off in traffic.You miss something obvious at work.Your partner calls you out—and suddenly you're defensive, pissed, explaining, blaming, or shutting down.This episode of The Evolved Caveman Podcast is about that moment—the split second when your body reacts before your character ever gets a vote.Here's the uncomfortable truth most men were never taught:Those reactions aren't a failure of willpower, maturity, or intelligence.They're nervous system reflexes.In this episode, Dr. John Schinnerer breaks down why being “wrong” often feels like a threat to survival, how your fight–flight–freeze–fawn responses hijack your behavior, and why “just calm down” has never worked (and never will). You'll learn how shame disguises itself as anger, logic, withdrawal, or people-pleasing—and what's actually happening inside your body when it does.This isn't therapy-speak or pop psychology.It's real-world, practical clarity for men who want self-mastery instead of self-judgment.Inside the episode: - Why mistakes register as danger in the nervous system - The 3 protective states that drive defensiveness, shutdown, and people-pleasing - How to spot when you're reacting from self-protection instead of choice - What secure, grounded responses actually sound like in real life - A simple, actionable reset practice you can use in the moment - The golden rule: Regulate first. Repair second. Explain last (or never).If you care about your relationships, your leadership, or the kind of man you are under pressure, this episode is essential listening.Because emotional maturity isn't about never screwing up.It's about being able to tolerate being wrong—without attacking yourself or anyone else.Listen in. Sit with it. Notice your patterns this week—not to fix them, but to understand them.That's where real change begins.Want a Higher Baseline of Calm, Confidence, and Control? Start Here…

In this episode, we explore a painful crossroads in a long-term marriage. After 14 years together, a man finds himself deeply in love with his wife—but struggling with the loss of intimacy, unresolved hurt, and a fundamental disagreement about having children. Past comments, unmet expectations, and years of emotional distance have turned sex into obligation rather than connection, leaving him feeling rejected, depressed, and trapped in a life he otherwise values. As friendship remains strong but romance fades, he asks the difficult questions: Can a relationship survive without intimacy? And how do you choose between the life you've built and the life you still want?

What if most sexual shame isn't personal failure—but bad information? In this episode, Dr. John talks with Dr. Justin Garcia, Executive Director of the Kinsey Institute, about what the science actually says about desire, intimacy, fidelity, and pair-bonding. They unpack why “normal” is a misleading idea in sex, why many couples are touch-deprived, and how stress and low-level threat responses can shut down connection and arousal. You'll also hear surprising research on men and heartbreak, what people truly want in long-term partners and what might be behind the so-called “sex recession.” The throughline: curiosity is a powerful aphrodisiac—and you're not broken, you're under-informed.Key topics covered (bullets): “Am I normal?” why the data says variation is the norm The “touch crisis” and why many partners feel touch-starved Men, romance, and why breakups can hit men harder Trust, kindness, and “self-expansion” as core mate preferences Stress, trauma, and the nervous system's impact on desire The sex recession: is it real, is it bad, and what might be causing it Sexual literacy: why better information improves connection and consent Want To Learn More About Relational Happiness?

Criminal defense attorney Shelley Levisay was a powerful force to be reckoned with in the courtroom but in her personal life she was being coercively controlled and abused by her boyfriend. In Levisay's memoir “Love is Not Always the Answer” she writes about how this relationship took her to places she never thought she would go & would forceher to face challenges she could have never predicted she would have to conquer: not as a lawyer but as a criminal defendant charged with harboring a fugitive & lastly as a convict fighting to retain her legal license. In this episode, Levisay talks about her own history as a victim of coercive control & details the red flags in Karen Read's behavior towards John O'Keefe that everyone missed. *Shelley Levisay's memoir “Love Isn't Always the Answer”: https://a.co/d/aqoM4fgShelley Levisay's website-https://www.shelleylevisaywrites.com/Get access to exclusive content & support the podcast by becoming a Patron today! https://patreon.com/robertaglasstruecrimereportThrow a tip in the tip jar! https://buymeacoffee.com/robertaglassSupport Roberta by sending a donation via Venmo. https://venmo.com/robertaglassBecome a channnel member for custom Emojis, first looks and exclusive streams here: https://youtube.com/@robertaglass/joinThank you Patrons!Carol Mumumeci, Therese Tunks, JC, Lizzy D, Elizabeth Drake, Texas Mimi, Barb, Deborah Shults, Debra Ratliff, Stephanie Lamberson, Maryellen Sudol, Mona, Karen Pacini, Jen Buell, Marie Horton, ER, Rosie Grace, B.

We talk about love all the time—but we usually mean like. We love chocolate. We love our favorite song. We love people who are easy to love. But that's not what Jesus means when He says, "Love one another." In this sermon, we flip love right-side up and ask what it actually looks like when love costs us something, shows up in ordinary life, and gets handed to people who didn't earn it. As it turns out, "The fruit of the Spirit is not for you—it's for the people God puts in your life." And that changes everything about faith, work, family, and the way we treat each other. Most of us understand the assignment, we just refuse to do it. This message digs into the Fruit of the Spirit, Lutheran theology of vocation, and why "We know the assignment. We just refuse to do it." It's honest, a little uncomfortable, and deeply freeing—because the Gospel reminds us that "You are not the source. You are not the goal. You are the delivery system." You don't need more love in your life—you need to give it away.

We're going live with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott for a comprehensive conversation about the Nick Reiner case — not to assign blame, but to understand what millions of families are facing when someone they love is struggling with severe mental illness.Rob and Michele Reiner tried everything. They had resources most families can only dream of. And it still wasn't enough. That's not their failure. That's a system failure. And it's happening in communities across this country every single day.Shavaun will help us understand what families experience when a loved one has a severe mental illness. The impossible choices. The desperation. The heartbreak of watching someone you love suffer while feeling powerless to help. She'll explain what schizophrenia actually does to the brain, why it's so often missed when addiction is present, and what happens when medication transitions go wrong.We'll also talk about why intervention is so difficult in this country. Why conservatorship takes so long. Why families can't protect themselves from someone they love. Why the people who are supposed to help keep failing.Our audience has been sharing their own stories in overwhelming numbers. If you've dealt with this in your own family — a loved one with mental illness, the struggle to get help, the fear, the heartbreak — this conversation is for you.Bring your questions.

It's a reminder that women deserve to shine, recharge, and step fully into their power. When we reclaim our sparkly pink, we don't dim others—we light the way.If you're craving inspiration, alignment, and permission to put yourself back on the list, this one's for you.Focus inward first.When you get clear on what you want and need, everything around you begins to align more effortlessly.Self-care creates ripple effects.Taking care of yourself isn't indulgent—it's how you show up stronger, brighter, and more present for everyone else.

In this rich and deeply human conversation, Christy Byerly, MCC and coach educator, mentor and thought leader explores what it really means to bring brave, powerful love into coaching and leadership. Love is not sentimentality, but an active, grounded practice which requires clear boundaries, honest contracting and the courage to invite dissent. Christy shares vivid stories from her work, parenting, teaching and leadership experiences, illustrating how connection without structure collapses, and structure without connection disconnects. And how love with structure creates the foundation for empowering conversations.

Welcome to Day 8 of the 12 Days of Badassery, where we're diving into the one practice women put off the longest — and need the most:self-love....This episode is your reminder that self-love isn't indulgent, selfish, or soft....It's strength....It's fuel....And it's the foundation of every bold, confident move you make....Today, Marie explores the moments — big and tiny — where you've cared for yourself, honored yourself, invested in your healing, or simply given yourself a breath of grace. Whether it was therapy, a walk, setting a boundary, saying “I need a minute,” or whispering a kinder thought to yourself, these moments are proof of how deeply you're growing. ...Inside this episode, you'll reflect on:✨ The ways you've chosen yourself even when it felt uncomfortable✨ How a little self-love can completely shift your confidence✨ Why slowing down helps you lead stronger✨ The small acts of kindness that add up to massive internal change✨ Marie's personal stories—from Weight Watchers to hot yoga intentions to becoming the unexpected dog-mom with a stroller (all because… love changes you) You'll also hear how one intention — “I love myself” — transformed an entire yoga class and became a new rule for how Marie speaks to herself every day....Today's journal work inside the Proof of My Badassery companion guide invites you to document the moments where you've shown up for yourself, supported yourself, and chosen to treat yourself with compassion. Because self-love isn't just healing…...it's badass.

Send us a textYou were told that love would be enough.That if you just cared more, tried harder, stayed patient, and didn't give up, your relationship would work itself out. So when the distance crept in, when conversations started going sideways, when you felt lonely sitting right next to the person you love, you told yourself to love harder.But love isn't what translates your emotions into words.Love doesn't create emotional safety when conversations get tense.And love alone can't bridge the gap between two people living in very different emotional worlds.Skills do.In this episode of Love Shack Live, we sit down to break down the three core relationship skills that most couples are missing when they feel disconnected, misunderstood, or stuck in the same painful patterns.You'll learn:Why loving each other deeply still isn't enough to prevent conflict and emotional distanceThe #1 skill couples need to stop reacting and start understanding each otherHow emotional safety actually works (and why most couples don't have it)Why differences in perspective create so much conflict and how to stop taking everything personallyHow unresolved emotional “messy dishes” pile up and quietly erode connection over timeThrough real client stories and honest conversation, this episode shows why relationships don't fail because of a lack of love. They struggle because no one taught us the skills required to communicate, regulate emotions, and truly understand one another.If you've been asking yourself:“Why do we keep having the same fight?”“Why do I feel so misunderstood?”“Why does love feel harder than it should?”This episode will give you clarity, relief, and a different way forward.Love is real. It matters.But skills are what make love safe, lasting, and livable.Love Isn't Enough. Skills Get You Through the Holidays.If the holidays already feel heavy and you're trying not to spiral, you don't need more information. You need tools you can use in the moment.That's why I created the Holiday Survival Bundle: the Holiday Stress Test + 3 micro-skill programs to help you calm the tension, communicate more clearly, and stay connected when things get stressful.$97 or 2 payments of $55: https://stacibartley.com/holiday-bundle-nc

Refuge | This is Real Love- Love isn't Irritable or Resentful | Isaac Goulson | 11.5.25

Send us a textEver watch your favorite book turn into a movie and feel both seen and slightly betrayed? We dive straight into that delicious tension with Regretting You and a wave of upcoming adaptations like Verity, The Housemaid, and Reminders of Him, unpacking why certain casts nail the voice in your head while others miss the mark. From there, the conversation widens into memory itself: how All the Colors of the Dark earns its big ending by building layer after layer, and how memoirs get written from fragments, ghostwritten structure, and the artifacts we keep.Then the ground shifts. One of us is losing the family home—the place of Christmas mornings, tornado scares, daycare noise, and a deck built with a dad's hands. We talk about the ache of letting go, the sibling politics of heirlooms, and why an Oreo tin can hold more meaning than a million-dollar remodel. At the same time, we celebrate small-house joy and local pride, trading notes on Anoka's clean streets, historic houses, bookstores, and quietly excellent coffee. Practicality threads through it all: remote-work reset spots, budget beauty that doesn't insult your wallet, and how to turn “pantry panic” into resourceful cooking and smart donations.Pop culture interrupts with a jolt: a chilling Ed Gein series as actor's masterclass and cautionary tale, and a Love Is Blind season where no one says “I do.” We debate money, image, and values that only reveal themselves under everyday pressure—service staff, work hours, family habits. Finally, we get honest about addiction. Memoirs remind us dependency can grow anywhere, genetics included. Our family policy is simple and firm: if you feel unsafe, text a pin, and we'll come—no lectures, no questions, just the ride. We close with small abundance: backyard eggs with sunset-orange yolks, coffee you'll side-eye then love, and the relief of friends who show up.If this mix of story, home, pop culture, and practical care speaks to you, tap follow, share with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review. Your notes keep this little community growing.www.magicmind/best50Support the showhttps://linktr.ee/onourbestbehavior

In this deeply personal and vulnerable episode, Marina shares the most transformative relationship experience of her life—the one that finally broke the cycle of being the fixer in love. With raw honesty, she opens up about falling for someone with immense potential, a soulful connection, and an incredibly difficult past. But more importantly, she shares how she finally walked away—not just physically, but emotionally and somatically—from the belief that her love could save someone who didn't want to be saved.This is not just a story of heartbreak; it's a story of nervous system healing, boundary reclamation, and rewriting the blueprint of what love feels like. If you've ever stayed in a relationship hoping the other person would change, if you've ever been hooked by potential instead of reality, or if you've lost yourself trying to fix someone else—this episode will speak to the deepest parts of you.Marina invites you into her process of grieving not only a romantic relationship but also her relationship with her father, and how all of it ties back to her childhood pattern of trying to earn love through healing others. She reflects on her own addiction—not to substances, but to hope, to the fixer fantasy, and to the deep desire for emotional safety. Through this heartbreak, she found a sense of freedom she never knew was possible.❥Join The Unburdened Heart Program: https://marinayt.com/the-unburdened-heart ❥❥1:1 Coaching with me: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfWcZM5s9c2OjOLwoGMI5jE6rh_JAzjN2d_vCtuVe7e3pVGxw/viewform❥❥❥Stay or Go Course: ⁠https://marinayt.com/stay-or-go⁠ ❥❥❥❥ FREE RESOURCE: a step-by-step process of working with your triggersTRIGGERED TO ROOTED: A ROADMAP TO CREATE TREASURES FROM YOUR TRIGGERSThis powerful step by step process will walk you through how to somatically move through a trigger, ground yourself, allow the emotions to come up and experience massive growth in your lifeDownload here:⁠ ⁠https://marinayt.com/trigger-2-rooted⁠⁠Follow me on Instagram:⁠ ⁠www.instagram.com/marina.y.t⁠⁠ Subscribe to YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@marinatriner Top Episode Quotes:"I was addicted—not to him—but to his recovery.

In this episode, Kirk and his son James dive deep into the true meaning of love—romantic, brotherly, familial, and agape—and what the Bible really says about it.
