This episode was inspired by an insight that cropped up during our weekly date night.
During long, loving relationships – whether they be family, friends or romantic partners, there will be times when the people you love will need support.

What is the correct balance for that support between allowing the other person autonomy to ask for help, looking after yourself and looking after the person you love? The emotions involved can be intense.

We discuss:

• Richard’s near brush with disability
• Sara’s realisation of the guilt she carried around for decades about not being there enough for loved ones and how it reinforced the feeling of “I’m a bad person”
• It’s not about fixing, it’s about being there
• Resentment vs. guilt. How do you deal with that?
• Intuitively making the right choice and dealing with your emotions.

In this episode, we talk about open relationships, poly-amory and other types of non-monogamous relationships.
These types of relationships characterised by agreement between the parties concerned have been glamourised and offered as a solution for the monotony of monogamy in the last decade or so.
But what’s the real reason why people choose to enter these arrangements?
We talk about:

• Richard’s personal experience of an open marriage with his first wife
• Why open relationships are often the easier road when compared to conscious monogamy.
• How intimacy can sometimes destroy sex drive
• Some tough questions to ask yourself if you’re thinking non-monogamy is the root to solve your relationship problems

We couldn’t not watch the Manosphere. Join us for this episode where we rant, analyse and share some of our key takeaways from the Louis Theroux documentary and what it says about masculinity, femininity and relationships.

In this episode, we talk about:

• How we got here – the discrediting of “masculinity” and how it led to polarization
• The men in the Manosphere are not “alpha men”. Their behaviour comes from deep wounding.
• The behaviour traits of the wounded masculine
• The difference between leadership and control
• When women settle for “less” while telling themselves they’re happy
• The wounded “feminine”
