Whether you're hoping to improve your marriage, deepen your self-awareness, or finally feel safe in love, this episode meets you right where you are. Inner Child Healer Tami Schiltz joins forces with psychotherapist, sex educator, and relationship coach Christie Bemis to unpack the real reasons relationships feel stuck—and how inner child work can unlock lasting connection, communication, and emotional safety. You'll learn how childhood patterns sneak into adult relationships, how to identify your adaptive child responses, and why being triggered is actually an invitation to heal—not a red flag. We also break down Christie's SPARCS relationship assessment tool (Safety, Play/Pleasure, Attunement, Realized Dreams, Communication, and Sex/Intimacy), and the 5 losing strategies that sabotage connection: withdrawal, retaliation, controlling, needing to be right, and unbridled self-expression.

In today's episode, we're exploring intimacy - a concept that's far more complex than most of us realize. My guest, Erin Moniz, has been studying how we connect, disconnect, and misunderstand relationships in our current cultural moment. We'll dig into some critical questions: What does intimacy actually mean beyond romantic relationships? How have cultural messages - both inside and outside the church - distorted our understanding of connection? And what might a more holistic approach to knowing and being known look like? Erin brings a unique perspective as a college chaplain who's counseled countless emerging adults navigating relationships. We'll discuss how technology impacts our connections, why friendships matter as much as romantic partnerships, and how the gospel offers a different framework for understanding human relationships. This isn't a prescriptive how-to conversation, but an exploration of our fundamental human need for genuine connection. We'll challenge some assumptions about singleness, marriage, and community, and hopefully provide a more nuanced view of intimacy. So join us.Rev. Erin F. Moniz (DMin, Trinity School for Ministry) is a deacon in the Anglican Church in North America and associate chaplain and director for chapel at Baylor University, where she disciples emerging adults and journeys with them toward healthy, gospel-centered relationships. She is a trained conciliator, mediator, and conflict coach. She enjoys content creation, playing music, being outdoors, and narrating the inner monologue of her two cats.

By 2030, most adults, especially women, might be single for life. A study by Pew Research Center found that nearly 1 in 4 single adults may stay single for life.

In this episode, we talk about how the Drama Triangle might be the hidden pattern keeping your relationships stuck in painful cycles. Whether you're supporting a loved one with mental illness or navigating difficult family dynamics, this pattern will keep you trapped in the pain instead of solving it.Stephen Karpman's Drama Triangle describes three roles that create and sustain relationship dysfunction: the Victim (feeling helpless and powerless), the Persecutor (critical and blaming), and the Rescuer (rushing to fix problems). What makes this pattern so challenging is how people shift between these roles, maintaining the pain while never actually resolving underlying issues.We identify places where we can spot the drama triangle in our own lives—from childhood experiences with divorced parents to adult relationships—showing how these patterns created confusion and heartache. These triangles often form because we're desperately trying to maintain stability, even when that stability is painful.The good news is that understanding these patterns gives you the power to break free. We explore practical ways to step outside your habitual role and ultimately break down the triangle entirely. Rather than seeing these behaviors as character flaws, we frame them as adaptations that once served a purpose but may now be limiting your growth and happiness.This conversation highlights how recognizing these patterns can help you create more authentic connections with loved ones struggling with mental health challenges. Check out KulaMind.com to learn more about our online platform designed to help you break toxic patterns and find peace while supporting someone with mental illness.Resources:https://karpmandramatriangle.com/dt_article_only.htmlSupport the showIf you have a loved one with mental or emotional problems, join KulaMind, our community and support platform.

In this episode of the Addict to Athlete podcast, host Blu Robinson engages with Gary Katz, a professional in the field of sexual addictions. They explore the complexities of addiction, particularly sexual addiction, and its impact on individuals and relationships. Katz discusses the spectrum of addiction, the stigma surrounding sexual behaviors, and the deep emotional wounds caused by betrayal. The conversation emphasizes the importance of self-compassion, understanding values, and navigating the healing process for both individuals struggling with addiction and their partners. In this conversation, Gary Katz and Blu Robinson delve into the complexities of healing from betrayal in relationships. They discuss the timeline for recovery, the importance of emotional literacy, and the challenges of reestablishing intimacy after infidelity. The dialogue emphasizes the need for couples to navigate trust issues, the dynamics of sexual desire, and the impact of conflict and resentment on intimacy. Katz highlights the significance of individual and couples therapy in fostering understanding and healing, while also addressing the societal pressures that complicate emotional expression, particularly for men. Takeaways Addiction is a form of self-abandonment. The stigma surrounding sexual addiction is profound. Betrayal trauma cuts deeper than other forms of addiction. Self-compassion is crucial in the recovery process. Understanding one's values is essential in addressing sexual behaviors. The partner's perspective is often overlooked in discussions of addiction. Shame plays a significant role in how individuals perceive their sexual behaviors. Healthy relationships require open communication about sexual needs. The brain often protects itself from painful truths, leading to denial. Navigating recovery involves addressing both individual and relational dynamics. It can take 18 to 24 months for healing. Healing is a personal journey; there's no race. Betrayed partners often seek knowledge to feel safe. Understanding betrayal trauma is crucial for recovery. Empathy is harder to learn than stopping harmful behaviors. Reestablishing intimacy requires patience and understanding. Couples need to prioritize their relationship amidst life demands. Conflict can be a sign of passion in relationships.   00:00- Introduction to the Addict to Athlete Podcast 01:00- Understanding Sexual Addictions and Their Impact 04:44- The Spectrum of Addiction: Self-Abandonment and Connection 08:26- The Deeper Cuts of Sexual Betrayal 11:20- The Stigma of Sexual Addiction 13:14- The Complexity of Shame in Sexual Behaviors 18:09- Navigating Values and Sexuality 21:12- The Partner's Perspective: Betrayal and Healing 27:59- Understanding the Healing Process 30:39- Navigating Betrayal and Trust 34:24- Reestablishing Intimacy After Betrayal 39:12- The Dynamics of Sexual Desire 45:13- Conflict, Resentment, and Intimacy 50:20- Emotional Literacy and Recovery   Please join Addict to Athlete's Patreon support page and help us turn the mess of addiction into the message of sobriety! https://www.patreon.com/addicttoathlete Please visit our website for more information on Team Addict to Athlete and Addiction Recovery Podcasts. https://www.AddictToAthlete.org Join the Team!

Sadly I cannot respond directly to your text, so please Email me!Let's talk about spanking—again. But this time, I'm coming at it from a totally new angle that honestly blew my mind a little.In this episode, I'm digging into the idea of spanking as therapy (yes, you read that right). A recent conversation with my camp bestie got me thinking, and then I stumbled across a 2020 article that laid it all out—turns out, spanking can do a hell of a lot more than just sting. It can actually help you reconnect, release stress, and even heal.

The conversation covers a range of topics including current events, political dynamics, domestic policies, military standards, health initiatives, election dynamics, and cultural commentary. The host discusses the implications of recent political actions, international relations, and social issues, while also reflecting on personal anecdotes and societal trends.

Today we're talking about marriage - specifically, how Christian marriages might be missing the mark. I'm sitting down with Sheila Gregoire, a researcher who's spent years studying what actually makes relationships work. And here's something interesting: the biggest threat to marital satisfaction isn't what most people think. It's not sex or money - it's housework. Sheila isn't just another marriage author. She's surveyed 7,000 people to understand the dynamics of healthy relationships. Her work challenges a lot of the traditional evangelical advice that's been circulating for decades - advice that often creates more distance than connection. We're going to explore how Christian marriage books have sometimes gotten it wrong. How messages about leadership, submission, and roles can actually harm the very relationships they're trying to protect. We'll talk about what real partnership looks like, how couples can communicate better, and what it means to truly see each other. This conversation is about reimagining marriage - not as a power structure, but as a genuine partnership that reflects mutual respect and love. So if you're curious about building a healthier relationship, or if you're tired of the same old marriage advice, this episode is for you.Sheila Wray Gregoire is the face behind BareMarriage.com as well as a sought-after speaker and an award-winning author of nine books, including The Great Sex Rescue and She Deserves Better. With her humorous, no-nonsense approach, Sheila is passionate about changing the evangelical conversation about sex and marriage to make it healthy, evidence-based, and biblical. She and her husband, Keith, live in Ontario, Canada, near their two adult daughters and three grandbabies. Sheila also knits.

Religion or relationship—what truly defines faith? In this powerful message, Pastor Mark Rempel explores the foundational difference between following religious systems and embracing a transformative relationship with Jesus. Drawing on scripture like Matthew 7, Pastor Mark challenges viewers to rethink traditional roles, understand biblical context, and build their lives on the unshakable rock of Christ. #empowerment #faith #bible #tradition #church #jesusCHAPTERS:00:00 - Does Truth Exist01:18 - What is a Religion05:42 - What is a Cult09:47 - Foundation of Christianity13:14 - Bible Inspired by God14:47 - Adding or Taking Away from the Bible16:11 - Woke Theology Explained17:55 - Relationship vs. Religion18:45 - Nicodemus in the Bible25:28 - Absolute vs. Relative Truth28:05 - Building Your Faith29:51 - God and Relationship Dynamics30:47 - The Balm of Gilead----------Follow 2911 Church on Social Media:FACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/2911churchINSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/2911churchWEBSITE: https://www.2911church.com/GIVING: https://2911church.churchcenter.com/giving----------Subscribe to 2911 Church's Podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6SiLmBl5TcTGD63CTNwU4f?si=98186b325cf94ee6Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/29-11-church/id1456498714

Keith returns from Mardi Gras and reflects on the surprisingly family-friendly atmosphere, alongside the expected open-container debauchery. He and Mike discuss bead culture, public flashing, and how social dynamics at such events can override typical social inhibitions. The conversation segues into the cultural legacy of Girls Gone Wild, including its covert marketing of hardcore pornography and the legal grey areas surrounding consent and identification. Mike notes that his preferred porn was "too advanced" for Girls Gone Wild, which is a humblebrag if there ever was one. The hosts then shift gears into a conversation about sexual timing and relationship dynamics. They propose the surprisingly radical idea of having sex before dinner, rather than after, in part to avoid the logistical complications of digestion and sleepovers. This leads to an extended negotiation theory about ejaculation, cuddling, and the psychological benefits of clarity when dealing with the lizard brain. Keith confesses that his post-orgasm snuggling capabilities are vastly superior to his pre-orgasm ones, citing reduced mental bandwidth usage. Later, they explore the nuanced politics of female body hair, particularly in light of the new live-action Snow White film, which has sparked online discourse due to the visible presence of peach fuzz on the lead actress's back. Keith reflects on his strong personal aversions to body hair in intimate situations, while Mike offers a more lenient, fuzz-tolerant perspective. This leads to a revealing discussion about grooming standards, attractiveness, and how to hold unreasonable preferences without becoming the villain in someone else's patriarchy narrative. Keith admits he is "maximally intolerant" of certain aesthetic features and wishes it weren't so—though not quite enough to change. In the final segment, the hosts dissect a listener's account of discovering leftover toilet paper in an inconvenient location during a sexual encounter. They analyze the term "clitty litter," which is probably best left unanalyzed. Keith shares his own experiences with this phenomenon, including one instance that led to a breakup, because of course it did. The episode closes with a thoughtful consideration of pre-sex hygiene, the physics of female anatomy, and the challenges of broaching these topics without becoming a monster.

Personal development is supposed to help you grow, but what if it's actually keeping you stuck? In this episode, we break down the hidden traps of self-improvement—where growth turns into self-sabotage—and how to move forward. What We Cover: The “I Need More Information” Trap – Learning without action isn't progress. Execution is where real growth happens. Perfectionism Paralysis – Waiting for the “perfect” moment? It doesn't exist. Progress beats perfection every time. The “Healing” Excuse – Self-work is valuable, but don't use it as an excuse to avoid discomfort and real-world action. Chasing Motivation Instead of Discipline – Motivation fades. If you don't build habits, you'll stay stuck. Hustle vs. Inner Work Conflict – Too much grinding leads to burnout, too much “inner work” leads to inaction. Balance is key. The “I'm So Different” Syndrome – Overcomplicating your struggles keeps you from progress. Success leaves clues—follow them. How to Actually Use Personal Development the Right Way: Learn, but apply immediately. Take imperfect action—don't wait for the right moment. Be self-aware, but don't get stuck in endless healing. Stop chasing motivation—focus on habits. Balance hustle with self-reflection. This episode is all about breaking free from the self-improvement cycle that keeps you stuck and actually making progress. If this resonates, share it with someone who needs to hear it.

Welcome back to another highlight show! In this episode, we continue our series of relationship tips and insights from some experts I’ve interviewed over the years. You will hear from Dr. Wendy Walsh about the top 3 qualities men and women seek (qualities that are based on deep-seated wiring, that we can’t ignore or reject), advice from Jillian Turecki on the right and wrong questions to ask while dating, why we can make bad decisions during the first two years of a relationship, why we downplay negatives and red flags, and what happens when we get too stuck on rationality. Got relationship problems? They likely stem from your own issues—your own personal life problems, self-esteem issues, etc. You will also learn what 7 things destroy attraction and hear wonderful insights from Mia Moore, who highlights the adverse effects of becoming socialized to believe that relationships are mainly about hard work. Mia discusses how life experience, including both positive and negative aspects of past relationships, can frame one’s perspective and personal growth for future relationships. Another important part of relationship health? Parenting. If you have kids, don’t make the (common) worst mistake most parents make (putting kids before the priorities of nurturing a loving partnership)! Mia mentions the “cheerleader” concept of relationship dynamics: Do you want a mature, authentic, dynamic adult relationship with conflict, frank discussion, negotiation-compromise-resolution, or do you just want a cheerleader to stand by and cheer you on? According to Mia, you can have both—a cheerleader and an authentic partner, and you will also hear some great applicable tips for healthy communication—recognizing and avoiding passive-aggressive dynamics, the power of dismissive language, being aware of how you use “but” in the middle of a sentence, developing the ability to listen more and talk less, how to allow for healthy venting without going overboard, the importance of working on emotional control and sensitivity, and more! TIMESTAMPS: What are the qualities we are looking for in a partner based on our biological wiring [00:46] It is important to be authentic. [05:16] What should you talk about when first dating? [06:25] People that look good on paper, might not be a good match. [07:44] The chemical attraction is there, but sometimes we make bad decisions. [10:59] Don’t downplay red flags that you may notice. [13:15] Be comfortable around each other. You don’t have to dress up or put on an act. [14:09] There are seven things that destroy relationships. One is stress. [15:31] Master your inner voice, and you master your life. [16:17] Are relationships really such hard work? [19:58] There are helicopter parents and lawnmower parents. How does that effect your relationship? [23:32] Do opposites attract or is a better match with someone who is more aligned with your behaviors and values? [27:06] As we get older, we get set in our ways. [29:58] Say something once and have the expectation that your message will stick. [30:50] Do you say “whatever?” Using “but” in the middle of a sentence usually negates what you said before. [31:47] Resolve to listen more and talk less. No one learns anything by talking. (Confucius) [36:10] Think about what kind of partner you want?

Could the right form of a single vitamin be the difference between thriving and barely surviving? In this Part 2 conversation, human biologist and longevity expert Gary Brecka reveals the #1 overlooked factor that's wrecking your health: methylation—your body's ability to convert nutrients into fuel. If this process fails, your hormones, energy, and even mental health take a nosedive. Gary and Dave dive deep into the real cause of anxiety, ADHD, and mood disorders, the hidden genetic reason why diets fail, and why Big Pharma isn't talking about this critical health breakthrough. Are you unknowingly setting yourself up for disease? What's the simple fix that can reverse anxiety, gut problems, and even prevent genetic disease? And why is your doctor ignoring one of the biggest markers of longevity? What You'll Learn: • The MTHFR gene mutation—and why it's quietly affecting millions • Anxiety, ADHD, and depression—why these disorders start in your cells, not your brain • The gut-brain connection—how your microbiome controls your mood • Why your “healthy diet” might be hurting you (and what to eat instead) • How nutrient deficiencies are passed from mother to child—and how to stop it • The truth about homocysteine—the blood marker that could predict your lifespan • Why most people are living at 50% capacity—and how to get your energy back Resources: • 2025 Biohacking Conference: https://biohackingconference.com/2025 • Gary Brecka's Website: https://bit.ly/4hlfyti • Gary Brecka's YouTube: https://bit.ly/3E3Aaba • Gary Brecka's Instagram: https://bit.ly/3PNsgFe • Dave Asprey's New Book - Heavily Meditated: https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated/ • Danger Coffee: https://dangercoffee.com • Dave Asprey's Website: https://daveasprey.com • Dave Asprey's Linktree: https://linktr.ee/daveasprey • Upgrade Collective – Join The Human Upgrade Podcast Live: https://www.ourupgradecollective.com • Own an Upgrade Labs: https://ownanupgradelabs.com • Upgrade Labs: https://upgradelabs.com • 40 Years of Zen – Neurofeedback Training for Advanced Cognitive Enhancement: https://40yearsofzen.com • The Mold Movie!: https://moldymovie.com/ SPONSORS: -BON CHARGE | Go to https://boncharge.com/ and use coupon code DAVE to save 15%. -Qualia | Go to https://www.qualialife.com/dave15 to get an additional 15% off subscriptions.
