When we first date someone, we can't keep our hands off them. All we want to do is take them home and spend all night in bed together. But what about when the infatuation stage is over? Can you still keep up the chase even though you're both in a stable and comfortable relationship? In this week's episode of Love Life, I explain the psychology behind why so many couples get lazy and lose attraction over time, and show how you can avoid that by taking on a few key behaviors to boost the DESIRE in your relationship so that you and your partner always feel irresistibly attracted to each another. -- ►► Discover What the Most Confident Version of You Can Really Do.

Welcome to the first episode of July 2025, where I have a fascinating conversation with Nick Brancato, a relationship systems architect and author of 'Prioritize Us.' Nick shares his unique journey from being a professional poker player to stepping into the world of personal development and relationship coaching. We talk about the significance of aligning priorities within relationships, enhancing communication, and strategies to maintain focus under stress. Nick also introduces his 'Prioritize Us' test, a powerful framework designed to help couples (and friends and anyone else you want to build a more connected relationship with) understand each other's core life priorities and values. We also explore coping mechanisms during crises, the concept of parallel play, and turn-based communication for resolving conflicts. Join us as we dive into these insights and more, plus we end with a simple mindfulness exercise that can help prioritize our personal resources when we want to accomplish something. Truly useful for all people.

If you've ever been ghosted, you know how brutal it feels. It's like the floor suddenly dropped out from under you. But here's the truth: Ghosting isn't about you—it's usually about the other person's immaturity or inability to have a hard conversation. In this episode, I'll explain why people ghost in modern dating, and show you how to stop getting stuck on people who flake and disappear, so you focus on people who truly value you. Life is too short to waste on people who don't show up. -- ►► Discover What the Most Confident Version of You Can Really Do. Join My FREE 30 Day Confidence Challenge.

Hi wonderful humans.I took some time off podcasting this year (tbh, work was very busy, and I had lots of planning and to-dos, so creating content fell off). But – after an eventful week – and now WAY more time on my hands, I have decided to use my voice. Surprisingly, with recent life changes and unexpected news RE: health and work, I've felt more inspired... It's story time! It feels like a reinvention period, and unlike during last year's unfortunate events in the SAME season, I AM HERE FOR IT.Themes in This Episode:Why I am not having a Hot Girl Summer"When it rains it pours"Dealing with last year's layoff and lack of stability VS. 2025Handling uncertaintyIdentity and workWork industry changes – marketing/creative/advertisingNavigating the future of workLife change management tools Living abroad/away from homeMy mindset around a sudden injury The role of spirituality, mindfulness, and self-talk ________________________Related EpisodesS7: Hacks For Handling Hard Times - Layoff, Love Life, Moving Locations - https://open.spotify.com/episode/6Akfw6fV2Jcs7xego1r5yF?si=PVIBA-0VTpyuYAYcUCobXA S6: From Existing to Living–Therapy, Health & The Benefits of Being Alone - https://open.spotify.com/episode/5JXFLYWCXmcvLon8akxJrD?si=Tby_bVU_RUGKhVPdJxEtKQAs always, I hope you're doing as best as you can.

In my 30s, I realized some truths about relationships that took me years to really learn. I used to believe in a lot of romantic myths. But in this week's new episode, I share the hard-earned truth that certainty in love isn't something you find on day one—it's something you have to decide to build and invest in. You'll also learn the difference between “settling for” and “settling on” someone, and why the latter is the key to creating a love that lasts. If you've ever felt paralyzed by the fear of choosing the wrong person, or overwhelmed by your search for “the one,” this is the mindset shift you need. -- ►► Discover What the Most Confident Version of You Can Really Do.

I have something really cool to share today, This is a conversation I had with Jay Shetty for his On Purpose podcast, where we talked about the modern dating dilemma of endless options and the fear of settling. We discussed the danger of always looking for “someone better” as a dating strategy, why we miss out on meaningful connections, and how to find a real relationship rather than optimizing for the perfect partner. If you've ever felt like you're always torn between chasing someone exciting or someone who brings you peace, this episode will help you create a love life that actually works for you. --- ►► Want Your # 1 Dating Problem Solved Personally?

When this happens, it's easy to feel lost and wonder if the person you're dating is avoidant or simply not that interested.

WORK WITH ME: https://stan.store/respectfullygabbyFollow for more on social media: www.instagram.com/respectfullygabby www.tiktok.com/@respectfullygabby Let's talk about something we all do...oversharing. In this episode, I dive into the habit of spilling every detail of your dating life to your friends and why it might be doing more harm than good. From seeking validation to turning your situationship into a group project, oversharing can actually disconnect you from your intuition and create more anxiety.I'll break down why we do it (especially if you're anxiously attached), how to know when it's too much, and what to do instead. Because sometimes, the most powerful move is keeping it to yourself, for now.This episode is your reminder to protect your peace, honor your process, and stop handing the mic to the peanut gallery.
Ever feel disconnected from your partner… but not sure how to fix it?You're not alone. Between mismatched desire, mental load, body image struggles, and awkward communication, intimacy often becomes one more thing on your to-do list, instead of a source of connection.In this episode, I'm joined by Vanessa and Xander Marin—licensed sex therapist and bestselling author duo behind Sex Talks and the Pillow Talks podcast. We're breaking down the silent issues that show up in long-term relationships and how to reconnect (without relying on spontaneous desire or unrealistic expectations).We're talking about what's actually behind low libido (hint: it's not just hormones or sex drive), how to reduce the mental load so you can feel more connected, and why “scheduled sex” isn't boring, it's powerful. Vanessa Marin is a licensed sex therapist with 20+ years of experience and Xander Marin is her husband, co-author, and brings the real-life partner perspective that makes these conversations feel refreshingly honest, relatable, and actionable.We Also Discuss:08:26 – Why we need to talk about sex way more openly13:44 – The 5 conversations every couple should have about sex18:32 – The truth about “how often” you should be having sex26:23 – Why desire doesn't just happen—and what to focus on instead32:42 – How mental load kills intimacy (and what to do about it)40:00 – The surprising link between body image and your sex life47:12 – What the “bristle reaction” is—and how to fix it54:04 – The most underrated forms of foreplay (hint: it's not lingerie)Thank You to Our Sponsors:Broads: Broads gives you structured, progressive training and a powerhouse community to keep you strong, consistent, and unstoppable.

Dear Wonderful Readers,The following vignette is what we call a “raw write.” I wrote it in 40 minutes in my writing class called UnMute, led by my incredible writing teacher, ANN RANDOLPH. I've been attending Ann's classes for the last three and a half years, and working with her has been a huge part of my creative journey. She'll be starting up UnMute again in the fall for any of you who have a lot of stories bubbling away inside of you but are unsure of where to start. I highly recommend her class.Today's prompt was the poem “What The Living Do” by Marie Howe, and I took the question: “Write about something broken in your home—something small and stupid. Let the description grow. What bigger thing does it mirror or hold? What grief or yearning lives inside that broken faucet, that squeaky hinge?”Also, I've got an exciting and quick Misseducated update. Starting this week, I will be experimenting with posting my work on Tuesdays. I've tended to publish too late on Friday evening, and I hope that publishing earlier in the week will give me more opportunities to share my work on social while it's still fresh. Still, I am eternally grateful to all my regular Friday readers, and I will keep you in the loop as to how it goes! You can expect posts from me on Tuesday from now on.I hope you enjoy this piece and have a great weekend.Love,Tash

In this episode of the Sex with Emily podcast, Dr. Emily debunks five pervasive sex myths that may be holding you back from experiencing your best intimate life. From the "body count" obsession to orgasm pressure, we explore why these common beliefs are not only wrong but potentially harmful to your sexual confidence and relationships. We dive deep into why the number of sexual partners doesn't determine your skill as a lover, the truth about natural lubrication and arousal, and how focusing solely on orgasms can actually prevent you from having them. Dr. Emily also addresses vibrator myths, explaining why sex toys enhance rather than replace intimacy, and breaks down outdated beliefs about anal play that keep people from exploring new dimensions of pleasure. Featuring listener questions from Francesca, Josh, Taylor, Melissa, and Nicole, this episode provides practical advice for navigating sexual insecurities, communication with partners, and expanding your intimate repertoire. Whether you're dealing with dryness, struggling to reach climax, or curious about introducing new elements to your sex life, this episode offers science-backed insights and compassionate guidance.

In today's Rewind episode, I talk about what might be the most insidious form of ghosting. If someone ghosts you after a couple of tepid dates (which doesn't feel good, don't get me wrong) you can usually assume they just weren't feeling the chemistry . . . But what does it mean when someone pulls away after saying they want to be exclusive, or after texting constantly and telling you they want to see you all the time? In this episode, I give you three reasons why someone might do this, what you should do when it happens, and the strange reason why they may choose to ghost but leave the door open.
