Podcasts about relationship work

A Podcast Co-Host Relationship sounds fun until different personalities, expectations, and creative habits start crashing into each other behind the scenes. In this episode, our cast and crew talk about what actually keeps a co-host partnership working, from handling conflict and sharing responsibilities to knowing when somebody's carrying too much of the weight. There's also that moment where a co-host stops feeling like just another voice on the mic and starts feeling like the reason the show works at all. By the end, you'll probably think a little differently about the conversations happening before and after the record button gets pressed.

In this episode of Openlove101, John and Jackie Melfi pull back the curtain on how their open relationship actually works—beyond the surface-level curiosity most people have. This conversation goes deeper than rules or logistics; it's about the emotional foundation, communication, and mindset that allow their relationship to thrive. They begin by sharing that their relationship didn't start open by design—but evolved into it. Long-distance dating forced them into deep conversations early on, creating a level of communication many couples don't reach until much later. That foundation became the backbone of everything that followed. Jackie opens up about coming from a traditionally monogamous background, while John had years of experience in the lifestyle. Instead of clashing, their differences created balance—allowing them to build something intentional, rather than defaulting to societal norms. What stands out most is their commitment to radical honesty. They didn't just allow outside experiences—they talked about them, shared them, and used them to strengthen their bond. Rather than creating distance, this level of openness brought them closer.   As their relationship deepened, they faced what most couples fear—jealousy, insecurity, and emotional attachment. Instead of avoiding those feelings, they leaned into them. Through communication, check-ins, and boundaries rooted in care (not control), they learned how to navigate those emotions together. One of the most powerful concepts they introduce is compersion—the ability to feel genuine happiness for your partner's joy, even when it involves someone else. Rather than competition, their relationship is built on celebration and support. They also challenge one of the biggest fears people have: "What if my partner falls in love with someone else?" John and Jackie explain that love isn't a limited resource. It's possible to love multiple people without diminishing the primary relationship—when trust and communication are strong.

This solo episode is going to explore a fear that many of us carry inside our intimate relationships but rarely say out loud: the fear of settling. What is it? Where does it come from? And most importantly, what does it cost us? Dr. Alexandra will offer you a reframe that is both clarifying and hopeful. We are going to reimagine what acceptance actually means – not as a passive giving-up, but as one of the most powerful and underrated tools available to us in love.  In this episode, you will hear about: The cost of comparison and how to shift from external comparison to internal reflection. How the word “settling” is working against you. What Acceptance is and is not, and how to determine whether you are acting in the spirit of acceptance or resignation. How to tend to the grief that is often built into Acceptance. Grab a pen and paper! Dr. Alexandra has included a writing exercise in this episode, designed to guide you towards acceptance - both of yourself and your partner.

Is your "wounded self" keeping you in a cycle of blame and victimhood? Many people feel trapped in situations they think they can't control. When this happens, it's easy to focus on external problems and hope others will change. In this episode, Dr. Margaret Paul explains why this outward focus often keeps people feeling powerless and stuck. She explores how the “wounded self” leads to patterns of blame, self-judgment, and victimhood—and why real change begins by turning inward. Through the Inner Bonding® process, Dr. Paul shares how shifting false beliefs, raising your emotional frequency, and becoming open to learning can help you break free from stuck patterns. When we feel stuck, it's easy to focus on external problems, but real freedom begins by turning inward. Listen in as we unpack how to reclaim your power and reconnect with your inner guidance.

For the next few months, I'm going to be focusing on the most important foundational work that you can do to improve your relationships.This includes:- developing secure attachment- freeing ourselves from codependency- cultivating true self-love and self-worth- learning about boundaries- developing crystal clear communication skillsIn the path of relationships that I teach, I call this Level 1. It will completely change your life even if you have zero interest to move into the higher levels of relationships (Level 2 - Conscious Relationships, and Level 3 - Spiritual Partnership).The vast majority of people have not yet built the strong and solid foundation that Level 1 provides, and this is why there is immense confusion and failure when it comes to building strong, healthy relationships.There is no shame, since most people are not taught this - and I had to learn everything the hard way through major life lessons that were incredibly painful and humbling.This work is worth every single minute.The Foundation begins on Sunday, March 22.Join us:https://www.love-evolved.us/the-foundation-0856c6d2-8590-4157-b61d-875f6aad63e5Other resources mentioned:My Story, Part 1: Healing from Abusehttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/love-evolved-with-leigh-anne-lopinto-conscious/id1589898399?i=1000650388992My Story, Part 2: Recovering from Divorcehttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/love-evolved-with-leigh-anne-lopinto-conscious/id1589898399?i=1000650999284The Trap of Codependency and How to Healhttps://www.love-evolved.us/storeThe War on Love, S_x + Relationshipshttps://leighannelopinto.substack.com/p/the-war-on-love-sex-relationshipsThe Work of a Lifetime: The New Paradigm of Relationshipshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/love-evolved-conscious-relationships-with-leigh-anne/id1589898399?i=1000717107657—About me:My name is Leigh-Anne LoPinto, and I'm a psychologist and breathwork teacher focusing on relationships.I help people who are done with repeating the same patterns over and over again, and want love and connection built on a healthy, stable foundation.My clients tend to struggle with insecure attachment, codependency, and a more passive style of communication.They tend to settle for subpar relationships, put others on pedestals, and have difficulty with boundaries.We work on healing all of this in order to step into incredible, healthy and happy relationships - this work is truly life-changing.Book a Free Intro Call:https://www.love-evolved.us/start-here.htmlThe Visionaries Community:https://www.love-evolved.us/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/love.evolv.ed/ This is a public episode.

After betrayal, most couples assume the relationship is the place to start. Something has been broken, so the instinct is to talk more, reconnect, and repair the bond as quickly as possible. Wanting relief, closeness, and a sense of normal makes complete sense. But after betrayal, the relationship is not the starting point. In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody explore why rushing into relationship work too soon can actually increase strain, confusion, and emotional injury, especially for the betrayed partner. When safety has collapsed, asking the relationship to carry the weight of healing often makes things worse instead of better. This conversation challenges the belief that fixing the relationship comes first and reframes what real repair actually requires. ______________________________ Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After Betrayal When betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

In this episode of You're Probably Right, the focus isn't on who's right or wrong, but on where effort actually lands in long-term relationships. Moving back and forth between what men and women are often asked to carry, this monologue explores emotional presence, communication, boundaries, reliability, and intimacy as lived behaviors rather than ideals. The conversation stays grounded, practical, and reflective—looking at how relationships tend to drift when effort is misdirected, and how clarity, consistency, and timing often matter more than intensity. This episode is for anyone interested in what sustains connection once things are real and life is in the mix.

What's in it for him when it comes to relationship work? In this episode of the Find Your Feminine Fire Podcast, Amanda is joined by her husband, Dr. Mark Testa, for an honest conversation about why many men feel hesitant, resistant, or uninterested in "working on the relationship",  and why it may be one of the most impactful choices they can make. Together, they explore: Why relationship work often feels like "her thing" How avoidance and distraction quietly erode intimacy What men actually gain from intentional connection Why your relationship affects emotional environment you live in every day How simple, practical practices can restore closeness and ease This episode reframes intimacy as leadership, self-respect, and creating a life that feels good to live inside. Whether your relationship feels solid, strained, or somewhere in between, this conversation offers a grounded, no nonsense perspective on connection, partnership, and being on the same team again.

Anxious–avoidant relationships are often described as doomed — intense, painful, and inherently incompatible. While these dynamics can certainly be challenging, they're not automatically destined to fail.In this episode, I explore what it actually takes to make an anxious–avoidant relationship work — not through chemistry, hope, or sheer effort, but through three essential, non-negotiable ingredients.I share why these dynamics can become either deeply healing or deeply reinforcing of old wounds, and how safety, responsibility, and discernment determine which way it goes.In this episode, I cover:Why anxious–avoidant relationships can feel both magnetic and destabilisingThe difference between understanding attachment styles and doing the relational workWhy commitment is essential — and how “one foot out the door” undermines safetyThe role of humility in breaking defensive patterns and power strugglesWhy self-awareness isn't enough without nervous system and relational capacityHow to discern whether a relationship can actually support mutual growth and securityThis episode is not about forcing a relationship to work at all costs. It's about honestly assessing whether the conditions required for safety, repair, and growth are present — and whether both partners have the willingness and capacity to do the work.Explore my free resources here

What do marriage, empathy, and the courage to face hard truths have in common? In this Best Of episode of Joy Found Here, Stephanie revisits two standout conversations that continue to strike a chord. Relationship therapist Dr. Becky Whetstone rethinks how we approach conflict and the moment we consider walking away, while empath and hypnotherapist Karen Blaine shows why sensitivity can be a powerful inner compass. Together, their insights offer a grounded guide for navigating the messy, meaningful work of being human—in our relationships and within ourselves.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(00:12) Best Of: Two Conversations That Still Echo(03:05) Becky's Unlikely Road to Relationship Work(05:10) The Crisis That Changed Everything for Becky(06:45) Why Many Couples Call It Quits Too Soon(08:57) The Truth Behind “We Can't Communicate”(11:59) The Damage of Felony Words in Conflict(14:15) Karen's Journey From “Too Sensitive” to Empowered(16:02) What Being an Empath Really Means(18:42) Boundaries and Reframing for Emotional Balance(21:22) Staying Grounded in an Overloaded WorldDr. Becky Whetstone is a relationship therapist, author, and former journalist who helps couples move through marriage crises with clarity and compassion. After seeing how unmanaged conflict leads to unnecessary divorce, she set out to teach partners how to communicate safely, regulate their nervous systems, and make grounded, emotionally mature choices. In this Best Of conversation, Becky explains why resentment often grows in silence, how “felony words” create lasting damage, and why you shouldn't end a marriage before understanding what can still be healed. Her reminder is simple: love is a skill, and with the right tools, even the hardest moments can become turning points instead of endings.Karen Blaine is an empath and hypnotherapist who guides highly sensitive people to honor their emotional depth rather than hide it. After growing up feeling “too sensitive,” she learned to see her intuition and attunement as strengths that help her connect meaningfully with others and the world around her. In this revisited conversation, Karen shares how empaths can stay grounded through boundaries, reframing, and quick reset rituals—especially in an overwhelming, information-heavy world. Her tools help listeners recognize when they're absorbing too much and return to center with clarity. Her message: sensitivity isn't a flaw, but a powerful strength when used with intention.Connect with Dr Becky Whetstone:WebsiteFacebookInstagramLinkedInXYouTubeBlogGet Becky's book!Connect with Karen Blaine:WebsiteInstagramLinkedInFacebookXYouTubeTikTokLet's Connect:WebsiteInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Why do we stay in the wrong relationships? Is it fear, habit, or the belief that love is supposed to be difficult? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, I sit down with relationship coach Jillian Turecki for an honest, insightful conversation about why we get stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns—and how to break free from them.

In this episode of the Modern Man Podcast, Ted discusses the complexities of relationships with licensed professional counselor EJ Kerwin. They explore the importance of communication, the challenges of defensiveness, and the necessity of mindfulness in maintaining healthy relationships. EJ shares insights from his own experiences and professional practice, emphasizing the need for couples to navigate changes together and to work on their emotional connections. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the complexities of navigating relationships, especially in the context of parenthood. They discuss the importance of emotional awareness, the need for gratitude and connection, and the evolving expectations of men in relationships. The conversation emphasizes the significance of creating emotional safety and acceptance within partnerships, as well as the impact of these dynamics on personal growth and family life.   Takeaways Relationships require ongoing work and commitment. Defensiveness can hinder effective communication. Recognizing personal triggers is key to managing defensiveness. Mindfulness can enhance relationship satisfaction. Curiosity in communication fosters understanding. Couples often struggle during major life transitions. Each partner may adapt differently to stress. Grace and understanding are essential in relationships. Practicing mindfulness takes effort but yields benefits. Effective communication involves adapting to each other's needs. Dividing responsibilities in parenting can lead to misalignment. Regularly checking in with your partner is essential for connection. Mindfulness helps in recognizing and addressing relationship misalignments. Gratitude should be vocalized specifically to be impactful. Emotional awareness is now a key expectation in relationships. Men are encouraged to express vulnerability without fear of weakness. Creating emotional safety allows partners to be their true selves. Understanding your partner's struggles can foster deeper connections. The relationship between parents influences their children's views on relationships. Continuous learning about your partner is vital for growth.  Chapters 00:00 Introduction to the Modern Man Podcast 01:00 Meet EJ Kerwin: A Journey into Relationship Counseling 04:23 The Reality of Relationship Work 05:54 Understanding Disconnection in Relationships 09:23 Defensiveness: A Barrier to Connection 12:05 Recognizing and Overcoming Defensiveness 18:46 Cultivating Receptiveness in Communication 22:10 The Importance of Mindfulness in Relationships 25:28 Navigating Major Life Changes Together 28:51 Navigating Parenthood and Relationship Dynamics 36:00 The Evolving Expectations of Emotional Awareness 41:39 Creating Emotional Safety in Relationships 46:38 The Impact of Relationships on Personal Growth   E.J.'s Links Website: https://relationshiprenovation.com/ Spotify:  Relationship Renovation Podcast Online Course: relationshiprenovation.com Instagram: @relationshiprenovation   Free eBook Here: Mastering Self-Development: Strategies of the New Masculine: https://rebrand.ly/m2ebook   ⚔️JOIN THE NOBLE KNIGHTS MASTERMIND⚔️ https://themodernmanpodcast.com/thenobleknights

We've all been in relationships that start out truly harmonious and mutually supportive. You and the other person are committed to the same goals and that feeling of magic connection is there. Next thing you know, it all slowly starts to die or shatters completely. How are we routinely in this place where relationships that begin with so much potential end so poorly? While there are an infinite number of ways to approach this topic from a Course perspective, in our Sunday Gathering sermon Emily Perry answers this question by sharing the one thing that will kill it every time. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

It's more rare than we would like that both partners in a couple approach "the work" of behavioral change with the same intensity, at the same rate, and in the same way.  What happens if one person is much more enthusiastic about "doing the work" than the other partner? Kristy and Jerry consider this in today's episode.

In this episode, I'm getting brutally honest with you about relationships.  Our conversation begins with a question from a listener who asked me for advice on how to make your relationship go the distance in this messy modern world. I've always shied away from giving relationship advice, mainly because after 26 years of marriage, I know the only secret is this: it takes a lot of consistent work. I also don't consider myself an “expert” on the topic because our relationship seems to always need attention. It's so easy to silently retreat to your corners and not address the issues. And there were years where we did just that. In fact, over the past few years, Chris and I have been working through some really heavy issues with a couples therapist. Today I share very personal revelations I've had about my own role in causing problems between us. After all we've been through, I'm really proud of my husband, Chris, and me for making it this long and doing the work to make it better. In the process of working hard to improve our relationship, I learned six powerful lessons that I felt compelled to share with you. Not because I hold the magic wand, but because I hope these lessons will save you the pain and heartaches I've caused myself and my husband. No matter what kind of relationship you might be in, working on, struggling with, or hoping to save, these six lessons will provide a roadmap to make it better. Whether you are married, dating, divorced, happily single, or experiencing a falling out with a friend, this episode will have something for you. About halfway through, another listener asks, “What do I do if my partner doesn't want to do the work?” In that case, there's just one rule for when it's time for you to move on. Oh, one more thing, if you and your partner are having a hard time… Share this episode with them. It's a simple way to open the door for a much-needed conversation. Xo Mel  In this episode, you'll learn: 0:30: The one question you often ask that I put off answering for a long time.3:30: Here's the hard truth you should know about my marriage.6:30: Here's what I think about “staying in a marriage for the kids”8:30: The concerning relationship trend I see happening.15:00: Would I be better off without my husband?18:15: This is the only way relationships work out.24:30: What I was doing wrong in my own marriage.28:00: 6 pieces of advice for any relationship.37:30: Here's why the way you react to your partner's good news matters.43:00: What do you do when your partner isn't growing with you?   Disclaimer
