Affairs grab our attention. Whether it's someone in the news or a friend of a friend, we tune in, pass judgement, or quietly reflect on our own relationships. But what is it that makes cheating stories so captivating?In this episode, I talk about why we care so much about other people's affairs. I explore how unmet needs, identity, and longing can show up in relationships. I unpack what betrayal can do to a person's sense of self, why fantasy can feel easier than reality, and why some couples do try to rebuild after infidelity.This is not about sensationalism or blame. It's a real conversation about what I see in the therapy room and what can help people make sense of something painful and complicated.What I cover in this episodeWhy cheating stories hook us, even when they're not oursHow social referencing plays into our opinions on infidelityWhat betrayal can do to trust, identity, and mental healthThe messiness of defining cheating in relationshipsHow unmet needs and longing can fuel emotional or physical affairsWhat it can look like to recover as an individualWhat's involved in repairing a relationship after an affairWhy not all couples stay togetherWhat happens when a relationship starts as an affairThe impact of perpetual problems in relationships (Gottman research: 69 percent of issues are ongoing)Why switching partners doesn't always solve core differencesWhat couples need to rebuild trust and connectionReferenced in this episode

If your inner monologue is constantly whispering, “Did I do something wrong?” This one's for you.In today's episode, we're diving into relational anxiety that shows up as self-blame. You know the one: where you feel responsible for everyone else's mood, you apologize before anyone says a word, and conflict makes you want to disappear. Maybe your default is “It's all my fault,” even when it's not. That pattern is what keeps you from feeling comfortable being yourself in the world; it keeps you on alert, and it waters down your relationships. This episode is all about overcoming shame and self-blame, and why it's so important to heal your relationships.We'll explore:The roots of self-blame and hyper-responsibility in relationshipsHow over-apologizing and people-pleasing quietly erode intimacyWhat's actually going on in your nervous system when you spiralThe difference between shame and guilt and why it mattersHow to hold your emotional reality and your partner's without collapsingPractical tools to break the “it's all my fault” loop, build self-trust, and come back to your centerYou'll also hear some of my own stories around this pattern: how it showed up in past dynamics and how I've worked with it through somatic and relational healing.If you often wonder…→ “Are they mad at me?”→ “Why do I feel so responsible for how everyone else feels?”→ “How can I express my needs without feeling like a burden?”… This conversation will help you feel seen and supported, and offer real practices to help you shift the dynamic.RESOURCES & LINKS: ✨ Book a free 1:1 consultation with Jenelle: Limited space available ✨ DM me on Instagram with your takeaways → @jenelleannette ✨ Or send me a message via email → hello@jenelleannette.com

If you are someone who loves building healthy relationships, communication skills, and personal growth, then this episode is for you.A few years ago in couples therapy, I learned one simple relationship tip that completely changed the way I communicate, especially during conflict. It's something I come back to again and again, whether I'm arguing with my husband or navigating tension with a family member.This advice is so powerful because it works outside of romantic partnerships too—whether you're navigating tension with a friend, a family member, or anyone you love and respect.In this episode, I'm walking you through the exact phrase my therapist said that stopped me in my tracks, helped my husband and I reconnect, and later, helped my sister and I move from feeling misunderstood to finally hearing each other.But first, a big disclaimer: this tip only works with emotionally intelligent, securely attached people. It's not for those in abusive dynamics or with people who are committed to misunderstanding you. If that's something you've struggled with, I hope this episode gives you clarity on when to apply healthy communication tools—and when to have the self-worth to step away.You'll learn:Why being “right” is overrated in relationshipsHow to shift from objective truth to subjective experiencesWhat emotionally-intelligent conflict resolution actually sounds likeHow to move from defensiveness to connection in under 10 minutesWhether you're in a long-term relationship or just want to improve how you show up for the people you love, this episode will give you the mindset shift you didn't know you needed.Deepen your self-love journey with Mary's books:*The Gift of Self-Love,* an interactive workbook that will help you build confidence, recognize your worth, and learn to finally love yourself.*100 Days of Self-Love,* a guided journal with 100 prompts to help you calm self-criticism and learn to love who you are.Follow Mary on IG: @maryscupofteaa and @maryspodcastIf you're enjoying this self-love podcast, share it with the women in your life to spread the gift of self-love!Mentioned In This Episode...Ep. 170: Intentional Wedding Planning and Artful Gathering with Priya ParkerEp. 257: Me and My Sister Recap Our Trip to France Ep. 258: Confidence Advice for Teen Girls (feat.

For centuries, misogyny has been the silent architect behind the patriarchal systems that suppress feminine power and limit women's potential. In this video, I reveal how misogyny operates as the patriarchy's most insidious weapon—and, more importantly, how you can break free from its grip to reclaim your sovereignty.As a spiritual, self-aware woman committed to individuation and empowerment, you deserve to understand the deeper currents shaping your reality. This conversation goes beyond surface-level feminism; we dive into the roots of misogyny, its impact on your psyche, and the spiritual tools available to heal, transform, and rise.In this video, you'll discover:The hidden mechanisms of misogyny within patriarchal culture—and how they shape women's self-worth and relationshipsHow internalized misogyny shows up in your thoughts, behaviors, and spiritual journey (even when you're conscious and educated)How to harness archetypes and feminine power to transmute wounds into wisdom and radical self-acceptancePractical steps to embody spiritual feminism and reclaim your voice, your body, and your destinyThis is a call to every woman who refuses to shrink, who is ready to alchemize her pain into power, and who seeks a path of deep feminine liberation.

In this episode, you'll learn:Why validation has nothing to do with agreement and why that distinction saves relationshipsHow to stay connected to people even when their choices make no sense to youHow to validate others while holding onto your own truth and boundariesWhat if every conflict you've ever had was actually your soul trying to teach you something about unconditional love?I know how that sounds. But stick with me here.We throw around the word "validation" like it's some basic relationship skill. Like it's about saying "that sounds hard" when someone's having a bad day. But real validation? The kind that actually transforms relationships and heals trauma? That's something entirely different.It's about learning to see someone so completely that they remember who they really are underneath all their defenses and patterns and pain. It's about holding space for another person's truth without abandoning your own. It's about loving someone exactly as they are while they're making choices you can't understand.Today we're talking to Caroline Fleck, a psychologist who spent over ten years mastering validation through dialectical behavior therapy. She's worked with everyone from people in crisis to couples ready to call it quits. She's discovered that this one skill can keep relationships intact even when you're on opposite sides of everything.Links from the episode:Show Notes: mindlove.com/408Join 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.

 In this powerful episode, Jason and Lauren Vallotton explore the quiet, often unnoticed habit of self-betrayal—the moments when we say “yes” to others while saying “no” to ourselves. Whether it's to avoid conflict, gain approval, or protect a fragile connection, self-abandonment can masquerade as kindness while silently eroding trust, peace, and authenticity.Jason and Lauren unpack the mindsets that often drive this behavior—like the belief that it's selfish to have needs, or that disappointing others is dangerous. With wisdom, compassion, and real-life stories, they offer a roadmap back to honest boundaries, emotional integrity, and deeper connection with both self and others.In This Episode, They Discuss:What self-betrayal looks like in daily life and relationshipsHow people-pleasing and performance mindsets take rootThe difference between peacekeeping and true peaceCore beliefs that lead to self-abandonment (“If I say no, I'll be rejected”)Why honoring your limits is essential to relational and spiritual healthPractical language and tools to say no with clarity and compassionReflection Questions:Where in your life have you been betraying your own needs to keep the peace?What fear is hiding underneath your yes?What would it look like to practice honest, courageous boundaries this week?Listen in and be reminded: You don't have to disappear to be loved.

This episode examines how intense emotional energy can quietly move between people, disrupting connection, creating emotional overwhelm, and shaping the dynamic of a relationship—often without anyone realizing it.Dr. Perry breaks down the neuroscience and psychology behind emotional contagion, including the role of mirror neurons and the tendency to absorb others' emotional states. He explains how individuals with narcissistic traits may struggle with emotional regulation and unintentionally trigger emotional contagion through unfiltered emotional expression or emotional dumping.Listeners will learn about:The science of emotional contagion and how it plays out in everyday relationshipsHow emotional dumping creates imbalance and emotional fatigue in close relationshipsThe difference between healthy emotional sharing and reactive offloadingWhy emotional safety must be mutual—not one-sidedPractical strategies to build emotional resilience and self-soothing skillsDr. Perry offers clear and compassionate guidance on recognizing these emotional patterns, cultivating self-awareness, and shifting from emotional reactivity to relational accountability.Tune in to understand how emotional responsibility can transform your connections—from chaotic and one-sided to calm, grounded, and reciprocal. Through reflection, intention, and small moments of self-regulation, emotional maturity becomes not just possible—but profoundly healing.Connect with Dr. Perry: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drericperry.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Own Your Stuff Online Coaching Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drericperry.com/ownyourstuff⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empathy Awakening Workshop: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drericperry.com/empathyawakening⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Disclaimer: The content contained in this podcast is for general information only and is not intended to be a substitute for professional advice, assessment, diagnosis, or treatment.
