About This Episode

Relating to someone other than oneself is a basic human need that lends itself to different relationship archetypes: the nurturing mother, the supportive friend, the romantic lover.

But the complications and confusion come when we suddenly have relationships that don’t fit into these archetypes. What if the mother is neglectful or overbearing instead of nurturing? What if the friend is distant or unavailable instead of supportive? What if the significant other is far from romantic and not at all loving or caring?

This is a fun episode to listen to because we will untangle all the complexities that every relationship presents. We use the word “fun” loosely, because though the topics and issues tackled may be heavy, serious, or seem a little bit convoluted, my guests have been nothing but interesting, inspiring, and engaging, not to mention generous enough in dishing out invaluable life lessons. 

In this episode, you’ll learn about:

• How to manage expectations from long-distance friendships (from Episode 13 “That’s What Friends Are For”
• A man, your man, and the space and grace to be the man (from Episode 4 “Waffles or Spaghetti: Understanding Masculine and Feminine Energies part 1”)
• Spaghetti and waffle brains – how men and women are wired differently (from Episode 5 “Waffles or Spaghetti: Understanding Masculine and Feminine Energies part 2”)
• The evolution of femininity, intimidation of white men, and the importance of intention-setting (from Episode 30 “Cream In Your Coffee”)
• Green, yellow and red flags and recognizing abuse (from Episode 10 “Fairytale Love Turned Abusive Nightmare”)
• Sex partners, overcoming traumas and personal demons (from Episode 27 “Let’s Talk About Sex Part 1”)
• Knowing your value and nothing being wrong with requiring to be bougie (from Episode 29 “Dating After Divorce”)
• Being submissive and having a partner aligned with God (from Episode 11 ”Thinking Like A Dude Could Cost You Your “I Do’s”)
• Defense mechanism for pain vs. allowing yourself to be hurt, relationship with God (from Episode 49 “Are You Intimate with Yourself?”)

I’m sure each clip selected from this collection of episodes will teach you a thing or two – and surely more – about the relationships you have in your own life.
