#490 How to Build HOT Healthy Relationships with Breann Starr

Are You in a "Healthy Relationship"… or Just Really Good at Ignoring Red Flags? 🚩 Why do we keep falling into the same relationship patterns, even when we know better? Why do some people chase connection while others seem to run from it? And how do you build a relationship that actually lasts without losing yourself in the process? In this candid and eye-opening episode, we sit down with Breann Starr, somatic relational and intimacy mentor and founder of Embodied Liberation.love [https://www.embodiedliberation.love/], to unpack the psychology, nervous system patterns, and relationship habits that shape the way we love. From healthy communication and emotional intimacy to codependency, attachment styles, and relationship repair, we're diving into the topics that show up in nearly every partnership—but rarely get talked about openly. We explore what truly makes a healthy relationship, the biggest signs of an unbalanced relationship, and the relationship tools that help couples stay connected long after the honeymoon phase ends. Breann also shares the most common relationship challenges she sees in her clients and why many of our struggles can be traced back to patterns we learned years ago. We also tackle one of the internet's favorite buzzwords: codependency. What is it, really? How do you know if you're people-pleasing your way through relationships? And how can you create deeper intimacy without sacrificing your own needs, boundaries, or identity? Plus, we break down attachment styles—including anxious attachment and avoidant attachment—and discuss practical ways to work with them. If you're someone who spirals when a text goes unanswered or shuts down when conversations get emotionally charged, this part is for you. Drawing from her background as a registered nurse and extensive training in trauma-informed somatic modalities, Breann explains why lasting relationship change isn't just about understanding your patterns—it's about learning how to work with them through the body, nervous system, and emotional awareness. Whether you're dating, healing from heartbreak, navigating a long-term relationship, or trying to understand why your ex still somehow comes up in therapy, this episode is packed with actionable insights, relationship advice, and a few loving reality checks along the way. ✨ What a healthy relationship actually looks like ✨ The biggest signs of an unhealthy relationship ✨ Essential relationship skills for long-term success ✨ Common relationship problems and how to navigate them ✨ How past relationships affect current partners ✨ Codependency signs, causes, and healing strategies ✨ Anxious attachment vs. avoidant attachment explained ✨ How to improve communication and repair conflict ✨ Nervous system regulation for healthier relationships ✨ Building deeper intimacy, connection, and self-trust Breann Starr is a somatic relational and intimacy mentor and founder of Embodied Liberation, a body-based approach to transforming how we experience love, sex, intimacy, relationships, and personal growth. She helps people break free from repetitive relational patterns, reconnect with themselves, and create more authentic, fulfilling relationships.

#488 The New Rules of Sex, Marriage & Power with Wednesday Martin, PhD

This week we're joined by bestselling author, social researcher, and cultural provocateur Wednesday Martin, PhD [http://wednesdaymartin.com/] for a wide-ranging conversation about modern womanhood, relationships, power, and what happens when life refuses to follow the script. From Manhattan moms to stepfamilies, sexuality to social science, Wednesday has spent decades exploring the hidden rules that shape our lives. The best-selling author of Primates of Park Avenue, [http://wednesdaymartin.com/books/primates-of-park-avenue/] Stepmonster [http://wednesdaymartin.com/books/stepmonster/], Marlene Dietrich, [http://wednesdaymartin.com/books/marlene-dietrich/] and Untrue [http://wednesdaymartin.com/books/untrue/]brings her trademark blend of sharp research, wit, and fearless honesty to the mic. We dive into her latest project, A Year Without Men, [https://drwednesdaymartin.substack.com/] and explore why so many women experience a midlife pivot—and why that's very different from a midlife crisis. We unpack what the data says about being a woman in America today, how changing gender dynamics are affecting sex and relationships, and why certain cultural conversations continue to spark fierce debate. Along the way, we tackle questions about marriage, monogamy, cheating, affairs, sexual assault, the controversial CNN "Rape Academy" story, and the phrase "Not All Men." Plus, nearly a decade after our first conversation about heterosexual relationships and modern romance, we revisit the topic to ask: what's actually changed, and what does the latest research reveal about where we're headed? It's a thoughtful, funny, provocative, and occasionally uncomfortable conversation about the state of women and men in 2026—and what the future might hold, for better and for worse.
