On your journey to find and keep love (if this is your wish) have you ever felt like maybe you are meant to stay single forever?
That is how this week’s guest, Glo Atanmo aka Glo Graphics on IG felt throughout most of her life. She was used to not being any man's first choice only to later date 12 quality men at once. Then in 2022, she embarked on her pursuit of finding her forever love. She is now openly sharing her love story with her millions of followers online.

You try way too hard

The Surprising Highs and Lows of Sex and Love(?) Under the Influence feat. Sarah Levy Jan 18, 2023

Show notes

Are drinking games for lovers or losers? Does alcohol make sex better and wetter or dryer and dimmer?
A study by Kathryn Lakeland of Femfresh found that 75 per cent of women said they liked to drink before getting into bed with their husband or boyfriend. In this episode we ask those in the 75 per cent to examine if this is a powerful or limiting decision.
Many share that alcohol makes them feel confident, flirty and powerful, but also less aware, less excited and more prone to regrettable decisions.
My guest on this episode, ‘Drinking Games’ Author, Sarah Levy once described being drunk on dates as a mandatory activity that made her feel like she had warm honey in her veins. Now, she is 5 years sober and ready to tell the world why.
In this episode, I am also joined by licensed therapist Erica Lubetkin who specializes in anxiety and addiction. Erica breaks down how alcohol can momentarily spike dopamine in your system, but the lasting effects are not so good.
This podcast is intended to spark hard-to-have conversations in your romantic and sexual life that lead to powerful shifts. I genuinely believe this episode delivers on that promise because we are talking about some powerful shit - alcohol.

Dangerously in Love feat. Nick Viall Jan 11, 2023

Show notes

This week's question is : What does it mean to be safe in a relationship? Safety in a relationship looks different for everyone.
Our starring guest this week Nick Viall and I talked about a lot, but underneath it, I think this is the core of it… 1) How love hasn’t been safe in the past and 2) how he’s redefining safety within in his new relationship: one that has external threats in the form of public opinion because that’s what fortunately unfortunately happens when two people attempt to share one life"
And now Nick is redefining what safety in a relationship means to him. Which leads to asking you “What does romantic safety mean to you?” “Any aha moments after listening to this episode?”

I'm Concerned About Our Love After Kids Ft. Jared Brady Nov 16, 2022

Show notes

In this episode, I sit down with my lover, my partner, my baby daddy, my everything, Jared. This conversation gets really real. We love our kids but do we still like our life? Do we still like each other?
This time in Colombia with my family has sprung up a lot of 'aha' moments: some good and others not so good.
Life after kids is unpredictable and it can sometimes feel like that spark is lost. Which takes me to asking him an important question that to be honest made me nervous.
"Are you happy?"
It gets raw, real and made me realize what I need to do more of..
