When your partner's body changes — whether from weight gain, shifting eating habits, or perimenopause — it can bring up some of the trickiest conversations in long-term relationships. In this episode of The Partnership Podcast, Lauren and Trey share a vulnerable look at how they navigate these sensitive moments with honesty, compassion, and growth.Trey tells the story of skipping Lauren's favorite Hazy IPAs on a Sam's Club run after a recent conversation about her body changes. Was this a supportive choice, or a potential “land mine”? Together, they unpack how unrequested service can backfire, drawing from Dr. Betty Martin's Wheel of Consent and Alison Armstrong's Celebrating Partnership.Lauren shares her desire to resist cultural obsession with “skinny” while entering her 40s with self-love, compassion, and education — not self-judgment. Trey reflects on breaking old patterns and celebrating small outward shifts that actually mean big relational change. They also dive into Lauren's latest work on the roles of Liars & Lie Invitees in partnership, showing how truth-telling and conscious communication can transform long-term dynamics.This episode is both tender and practical, offering couples real insight into what not to do — and better ways to support each other through body changes, health goals, and the realities of aging together.Want more tools for navigating tricky conversations in partnership?

We're back to Biola this week...kinda. Yes, Lacey Bond attended that school and was a "good" christian woman who followed all the rules. But while there, she was encouraged to ask questions and think creatively. This would prove lethal to her closely held fundamentalist, purity culture-soaked faith. It would eventually lead her to question everything and being exploring her identity as a woman and a sexual being. And through a series of life events, Lacey became a licensed Sex and Relationship coach, specializing in kink and non-traditional relationships. Want to know how someone goes from Biola dream student to complete sex-positivity? Lacey's story is one example.

I would love to hear from you. What did you think about this episode? Do you have any questions?The foundation of every meaningful human connection lies in our fundamental needs for love and belonging. But have you ever wondered why you seek connection differently than others around you? Why some relationships feel effortless while others seem constantly challenging?In this revealing episode, Dr. Dar Hawks uncovers how your unique relationship blueprint determines the way you experience love and belonging. We all have five primary relationship needs – freedom, fun, power, safety/survival, and love/belonging – but one typically dominates our interaction style and expectations.Freedom-dominant individuals seek connections that respect their independence, while fun-centered people experience belonging through shared joy and playfulness. Those driven by power find fulfillment when their contributions are acknowledged, safety-oriented people prioritize trust and stability, and love/belonging-focused individuals thrive on deep emotional connection and unconditional acceptance.Dr. Hawks doesn't shy away from exploring the shadow side of our connection needs. When love and belonging go unfulfilled, we can develop unhealthy patterns – codependency, people-pleasing, fear-based attachment, and emotional manipulation. Particularly for empathetic, compassionate people, the tendency to sacrifice personal needs and boundaries in relationships can lead to resentment and burnout.The psychological impacts of unmet belonging needs extend far beyond temporary discomfort. Loneliness, social anxiety, depression, trust issues, and diminished self-worth can take root, affecting not just our relationships but our entire wellbeing. Dr. Hawks offers practical strategies for healing: practicing self-compassion, engaging in joyful activities, building supportive communities, setting healthy boundaries, and cultivating self-awarenesWelcome to The Better Relationships Podcast with Dr. Dar Hawks, your guide to building stronger, more fulfilling relationships.

So many women freeze up when it comes to using their voice in the bedroom. You want to say something… but the words feel clunky, the mood feels fragile, and the moment passes.In this week's episode of Sacred Sex for Real Women, I'm joined by Luna Agneya, Relationship Coach and Tantrika, to explore the art of erotic talk — and how it's different from the performative “dirty talk” you might see in porn.You'll learn:Why erotic talk is more about embodiment than performanceHow structure can actually make things sexier and saferSimple tools to amplify connection and pleasure right awayWhy bringing your erotic voice into sex builds confidence in every area of lifeThis is a real, grounded conversation for women who want more than quick fixes or clichés — it's about reclaiming your authentic voice, deepening intimacy, and turning communication into one of the hottest tools for long-term love.
On this episode of The Partnership Podcast, Trey asks Lauren about the career-focused women she works with—are they struggling to find partners, and why? Lauren's answer may surprise you (and you'll have to listen to see if she chose the unfiltered or the compassionate version).Together, Trey and Lauren explore the dating challenges ambitious women face, why many men resist accountability, and how women and men often enter coaching from very different motivations. Lauren shares a tearful reflection on what Trey provides her—calling him her “soft place to land”—and why deep support, joy, and emotional presence matter just as much as great sex.She also celebrates the men she does get to work with—those hungry for tools to love women better—and why this feels deeply restorative and healing. To close, Lauren offers a trauma-informed perspective: that many men's avoidant behaviors are safety-seeking strategies learned in childhood.This conversation reframes what some call “high-value women” and clarifies what truly matters in creating the kind of partnership career-focused women are longing for.If you're a man ready to step into the kind of relationship women deeply desire, request a free consult today: www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsultAbout Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.

These questions often come from hypervigilance in our own nervous systems, not from genuine curiosity about our partner's well-being.Trey shares the stress response he felt in his body and why he'd prefer to hear:“Is there any way I can support you?”Or even, “My body can sense some discomfort in yours. Would you like to share about that?”From there, the two dive into:

What if you could communicate with the men in your life in a way that inspires them to open up, feel valued, and show up as their best selves—without falling into criticism or disconnection?In this heartfelt and perspective-shifting episode of Sacred Sex for Real Women, I'm joined by Relationship & Intimacy Coach Carla Crivaro for a deep dive into how we can truly love, respect, and uplift the men we share our lives with.Together, we unpack:Why men's emotional shutdown often isn't about you—and how to respond in a way that builds trust instead of walls.The surprising ways patriarchy impacts men too (and why this matters for intimacy and connection).How to recognize and receive the unique ways men give love—so you stop missing the gestures that are already there.Why setting your partner up to win is one of the most powerful shifts you can make in your relationship.How to navigate those “stuck” phases, from career challenges to grief, with compassion, space, and clear communication.We also draw powerful parallels to The Queen's Code by Alison Armstrong (one of my most popular podcast topics ever) and explore practical ways to bring these concepts into your real life.If you've ever felt frustrated by miscommunication, longed for more harmony in your relationship, or wanted to better understand the masculine perspective, this conversation is your invitation to see men through a whole new lens—one that celebrates your differences, strengthens your bond, and brings more love into the everyday.Links & Resources Mentioned:

In this episode, Mardi Winder-Adams sits down with relationship coach Ry Duong for a heartfelt conversation about love, loss, and navigating the world of relationships after divorce or heartbreak. Ry shares her deeply personal story of having grown up in a refugee camp after her family fled the Cambodian genocide, reflecting on how those early experiences shaped her perspective on resilience and hope. She also talks openly about losing her sister, a turning point that inspired Ry to turn her pain into purpose by helping others through her work as the founder of Eternal Love.Throughout the discussion, Ry and Mardi explore what it means to break old, toxic patterns and truly discover who you are after a long-term relationship ends. Ry draws from her own 17-year marriage and shares how, after losing her sense of identity in that partnership, she had to relearn how to put herself first, which is something she encourages her coaching clients to do as well. They talk about how loving yourself, accepting your imperfections, and setting healthy boundaries are the keys to finding happiness and attracting truly compatible partners.The episode also covers what unconditional love actually looks like, especially when it comes to balancing compassion for a partner with sticking to your own values and non-negotiables. Ry's advice is down-to-earth and practical, suggesting that anyone coming out of a divorce should take time to reflect before dating seriously again, to heal wounds and get honest about what you really want from a partner. She reminds listeners that it's okay to take your time, not to rush into something new, and to be aware of patterns that might lead you back into an unhealthy relationship.Above all, this conversation feels warm, genuine, and encouraging, full of helpful insights for anyone wondering how to move forward after heartbreak, rebuild their confidence, and invite more real connection into their lives. Ry's optimism and sincerity are evident throughout, and she leaves you with a gentle reminder that you already have what you need to be happy and fulfilled, even before someone else comes along.About the Guest:Ry Duong is the Founder of EternaLove and Author of Choose You, Choose Happiness. A passionate Relationship Coach with a background in Social Work, Ry has helped countless individuals and couples break free from toxic patterns and create lasting, meaningful love.

Mind Love • Modern Mindfulness to Think, Feel, and Live Well
In this episode, you'll discover:• Why the survival patterns you developed around sexuality are the exact same patterns keeping you stuck everywhere else - and how seeing this connection sets you free• The difference between using sex to escape pain versus using it to heal pain, and how to tell which side you're actually on• How to separate your authentic desires from the stories you inherited, so you can finally make choices based on who you are instead of who you think you should beWhat if the most dangerous thing you could do is keep pretending you're fine?Let's get real for a second. Seventy percent of women have never had an orgasm during partnered sex. Not sometimes. Never. Meanwhile, boys learn by age seven that they're responsible for everyone else's pleasure. We're all walking around carrying sexual shame that doesn't even belong to us, wondering why intimacy feels like performing instead of connecting.I spent years thinking something was wrong with me because I couldn't just magically know what felt good. Turns out, most of us are operating from scripts written by people who never lived in our bodies. Religious purity culture tells us desire is dangerous. Hook-up culture treats sex like a sport. Neither one teaches us how to actually connect with another human being.Want to know what's really messed up? The World Health Organization says sexual health is fundamental to human wellbeing. Yet we spend more time learning algebra than understanding our own anatomy. We memorize the periodic table but stay clueless about consent. We study dead languages but can't speak the language of our own pleasure.This stuff ripples out everywhere. When you disconnect from what you actually want sexually, you lose touch with what you want period. You become someone who says yes when you mean no. Who gives until you're empty. Who performs instead of living. This isn't just about bedroom problems. It's about life problems.Today our guest is Lauren Elise Rogers, a Certified Holistic Sexuality Educator and Embodied Intimacy & Relationship Coach, celebrated for her warm and approachable style. Her holistic and embodied approach to education and coaching is deeply rooted in her own pain to purpose journey, bringing an empathetic and non-judgmental approach that empowers clients to take ownership of their pleasure and grow in confidence and connection.Links from the episode:Show Notes: mindlove.com/410Join the Mind Love CollectiveSign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes to wake up inspiredSupport Mind Love SponsorsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
