In this episode, you will learn about the true essence of intimacy, the importance of self-awareness and courage in revealing oneself, and how creating a safe space for open communication can deepen connections and foster genuine understanding in relationships. Get to the root cause of common misconceptions and cultural taboos surrounding intimacy with Alexandra Stockwell, MD and me.
Key Takeaways:
Finding Fulfillment Beyond Career Success - In our society, success is usually tied to external achievements. However, true fulfillment comes from self-discovery and aligning with a deeper purpose. Stepping away from the usual path may be uncomfortable, but it can lead to a more satisfying life.
The Core of True Intimacy - Intimacy is often seen as either physical affection or emotional connection, but it's more than that. It's about openness, trust, and vulnerability. True intimacy means revealing your authentic self, creating deeper connections both emotionally and physically.
The Habit of Honoring What Feels Good - Many people struggle with recognizing and honoring their own feelings. If we are not in the habit of paying attention to what feels good, we may easily interpret positive sensations as anxiousness or discomfort.
How to Keep the Passion Alive - Keeping passion alive in a long-term relationship involves more than just seeking novelty or making changes. It requires a deep, mindful connection where partners are fully present and attentive to each other.

In this episode, I will guide you through the importance of listening, the significance of non-verbal cues and how they impact the way others interpret what we say. Get to the root cause of common communication mistakes and misunderstandings by learning how to truly listen and respond thoughtfully with me.
Key Takeaways:
What Does It Mean to Communicate Effectively? - Effective communication goes beyond simply speaking clearly or getting your point across. It involves ensuring that the message received by the listener closely matches the message you intended to send.
Matching Intention with Interpretation - Intention is what we mean to say, while impact is how the other person understands it. Even with good intentions, our message might not come across as we hope, leading to misunderstandings. It's important to realize that what we mean and how it's received aren't always the same.
The Challenge of Technology in Communication - While technology has made communication faster and more convenient, it also presents the challenge of losing important elements of communication like tone, body language, and facial expressions.
Communication is a Process - Communication is a process that involves many layers and can have a significant impact on the outcomes of our interactions. When we approach communication as a process, we open ourselves up to more flexible and effective conversations that are more likely to lead to positive outcomes.
Helpful Resources:
Listen Beyond Your Own Filters - Listening is a complex process that involves managing different filters and viewpoints. By being mindful of our own filters, considering the filters of others, and paying attention to the overall conversation, we can become better listeners and communicate more effectively.
Clarifying Communication - Communication typically flows from listening to responding. However, this process can be flawed if clarification is not included. We must recognize that communication involves checking and confirming the accuracy of the information exchanged.
Respond with Respect, Awareness, and Compassion - Mindful communication means listening carefully, responding respectfully, and handling emotions with compassion. It’s important to truly understand the other person, stay fully present in the conversation, and pay attention to both what they say and how they say it.
Notable Highlights:
"When one is effective, they can tell they are effective because the communication lands with the listener in the way it was intended."
"The brain actually operates in pictures and then encodes things into words."
"No one can communicate perfectly all the time, so we must extend grace and compassion for that."

In this episode, I will guide you through a discussion on discovering pleasure beyond the bedroom, exploring the societal pressures that limit our understanding of pleasure, and examining the historical and generational factors contributing to this disconnection. Get to the root causes of the constraints surrounding pleasure, , and intimacy with Natasha Riley and me.
Key Takeaways:
The Constraints of Living "In Our Heads" - The mind is great for solving problems and making plans, but when we get stuck overthinking, it can stop us from truly connecting with our bodies. This disconnect can affect how we experience pleasure, intimacy, and even basic sensations.
Strength in Vulnerability - True strength is found in letting ourselves feel and express our emotions. Crying isn’t a weakness; it shows our strength. When we allow ourselves to be vulnerable, we create opportunities for healing and personal growth.
Legacy of Suppressed Emotions - The suppression of emotions and the neglect of fun are remnants of historical oppression that continue to affect us today. Recognizing this connection can help us understand why it is crucial to reconnect with our emotions and embrace moments of joy.
Unlearning Harmful Legacies - The trauma Black women endured during slavery still affects how they see their bodies and sexuality today. Healing from this takes time and self-care, but it’s an important journey to regain a sense of self and reclaim the right to experience joy, intimacy, and connection with their bodies.
Embrace Change with Grace - We have the chance to embrace change, give ourselves grace, and treat ourselves with the same kindness we would offer to a child. Instead of blaming ourselves for the past, we can choose to look forward with hope, appreciating the journey of growth and possibility that lies ahead.

In this episode, I will guide you through the crucial aspects of nonverbal communication, explain why it's so important in our interactions, and show how understanding this can greatly improve our personal and professional relationships. We’ll explore how much more is communicated through the elements that make up a significant 93% of our communication. Get to the root cause of the disconnect between verbal and nonverbal communication with me.
Key Takeaways:
The Limitations of Digital Communication - When we communicate digitally—through text messages, emails, or social media—the majority of our communication doesn’t make it across. While words carry some meaning, they can’t convey the full picture without tone, body language, or facial expressions.
Communicate from an Authentic Place - The first step to achieving congruence in communication is to understand your own values and what matters to you. By being clear about your intentions and staying true to your values, you ensure that your words and actions match, resulting in more genuine and effective interactions.
Matching Intentions and Expression - Misunderstandings often arise when there’s a mismatch between what you’re saying and how it’s being received. Therefore, it’s important to check if your body language and facial expressions align with your words to ensure that your true intentions are understood.
Helpful Resource:
Mastering the Art of the Pause - Controlling the pace of conversations and taking a moment to pause can make your communication more genuine. By giving yourself time to think, you make sure your responses truly reflect your thoughts and feelings.
Observing Nonverbal Signals - Improving communication requires more than just listening to words. By paying attention to nonverbal signals and understanding cultural differences, you can gain a clearer picture of what people are really trying to convey.
Notable Highlights:
“It’s important to understand that 93% is just as important, if not more important than the words that are coming out of our mouth.”
“Congruence is a thing that the brain can detect unconsciously before one can detect it consciously.”
“To communicate more congruently, practice a pause to allow your nonverbal communication to catch up with what’s about to come out of your mouth.”

In this episode, we will talk about how perimenopause and menopause affect sexual health and intimacy and explore the physical and emotional challenges women face during this transition. Get to the root causes of intimacy issues and perimenopause symptoms, and provide tips to help improve both with me and Dr. Sadaf Lodhi.
Key Takeaways:
Understanding Perimenopause Across Ethnicities - Menopause marks the end of a woman's reproductive years, but the phase before it, known as perimenopause, can vary widely in experience. Recent research shows that the length and symptoms of perimenopause differ significantly among ethnic groups, influenced not just by biology but also by cultural, dietary, and historical factors.
The Importance of Menopause-Specialized Care - Menopause is a big change for every woman, but it doesn't have to be overwhelming. With the right information and support, women can manage menopause symptoms and maintain a good quality of life. Learning about these changes and finding healthcare providers who listen and provide appropriate care is essential.
The Impact of Menopause on Sexual Health - Menopause brings a range of changes to a woman’s body, significantly affecting sexual health. One of the most noticeable impacts is a decreased interest in , which can be distressing and confusing. Therefore, the misconception that a decrease in sexual desire or physical intimacy reflects one’s worth or relationship quality is harmful.
From Negative to Positive - Reclaiming sexual empowerment involves acknowledging and overcoming historical constraints, cultural influences, and personal traumas. Thus, it's important to start by understanding how these factors have shaped our views on sexuality. From there, we can take small, practical steps towards healing and self-acceptance.

In this episode, we'll talk about the three critical elements that often hinder effective communication, despite our best efforts to convey our thoughts clearly. Understanding these elements can significantly enhance how we connect with others and ensure our messages are received as intended. Get to the root cause of communication breakdowns by examining how we listen, how we create mental representations, and how we navigate challenging interactions with me.
Key Takeaways:
The Importance of Active Listening in Communication - Many people listen only to respond, which can cause miscommunication. By focusing on our reply, we miss the full message. Remember, listening isn't just about hearing words; it's about fully engaging with the speaker and understanding both what is said and what isn't.
The Role of Internal Representations in Effective Communication - When we communicate, we create mental images of what we want to say, but these images may not match how the listener understands us due to differences in experiences and emotions. Effective communication means being aware of the images we're forming with our words and making sure they are clearly understood by the listener.
Flexibility in Communication for Navigating Challenging Situations - Many people find it hard to stay calm and clear when communicating in emotionally charged or tough situations. This can trigger a defensive reaction and lead to poor communication. Learning to manage emotions, ask the right questions, and listen carefully can help you handle these challenges better.
Helpful Resources:
The Importance of Clarifying Communication - Effective communication isn't just about speaking; it's about ensuring that what we say is accurately understood. By taking the time to clarify and check in with others, we can bridge the gap between our intentions and their understanding, leading to more successful and meaningful interactions.
Communication is Always a Work in Progress - Communication is often viewed as a skill that, once learned, doesn't need much more effort. However, communication is a continuous learning process, no matter how skilled or experienced we are. It involves understanding others, reading non-verbal cues, and being open to different viewpoints.
Notable Highlights:
"A lot of what we learned in our communication was implicit. It was learned by observing others and by our interactions."
"Only 7% of language is words. The rest is conveyed through body language, tone of voice, and other non-verbal cues."
"Communication is an ongoing learning process, no matter how much work you've done or how well you think you communicate."

In this episode, we'll talk about the concept of feminine dating archetypes, understanding how these phases or patterns influence our choices, and how we can transform our approach to love and relationships by learning to trust ourselves and discern what we truly need. Get to the root cause of dating mistakes and attracting the wrong partners with Lilli Bewley and me.
Key Takeaways:
The Illusion of Success - True happiness and fulfillment come not from external achievements or relationships, but from within. It’s about knowing yourself, trusting your intuition, and setting boundaries that honor your own well-being.
Choosing the Right Partner from the Start Matters - The key to a successful and fulfilling relationship lies not in trying to fix a fundamentally flawed partnership, but in choosing the right partner from the very beginning.
The Power of Discernment - Leading with a big heart, paired with good judgment, helps people handle life’s challenges and build meaningful relationships. Using discernment allows people to make smarter choices and live a life true to their values and aspirations.
Trigger Town - Dating with self-awareness helps you spot old patterns and make choices that aid your healing. By recognizing and dealing with your triggers, you can break old habits and build healthier relationships.
A Call For Healing - Problems in relationships signal that there are unresolved emotional issues within you. These issues are not about your worth or your ability to find love but are a sign that you need to address some internal struggles.
Helpful Resource:
Understanding Feminine Dating Archetypes - Dating and relationships can be complicated. Women often face challenges shaped by their past experiences and traumas.

In this episode, we'll talk about recognizing the signs of fear-driven leadership, its impact on leaders and their teams, and practical strategies for shifting towards a more vision-oriented approach. Join me as we explore the root causes of fear, how it manifests in leadership, and why addressing it before it leads to burnout is crucial.
Key Takeaways:
Leading From Fear - When we lead from fear, it becomes the foundation of our actions. Our decisions are driven by the anxiety of not getting something we desire. It traps us in a cycle of avoidance, hindering our ability to focus on and strive for what we truly want.
The Impact of Leading with Fear - When leaders use fear to motivate others, it can create a toxic environment where people make decisions based on anxiety rather than inspiration.
The Unsustainable Cycle of Fear -When fear controls our leadership, it creates a harmful environment for both us and those we lead. Constant stress and vigilance eventually lead to burnout, leaving us mentally and physically drained.
Building Cultures of Trust and Psychological Safety - Organizations thrive when leaders prioritize trust and psychological safety. In healthcare and other sectors, fostering emotional intelligence and trust is essential for growth and innovation. By creating a culture of safety, leaders can unlock the full potential of their teams and ensure long-term success.
Helpful Resource:
Leading with Possibility and Empowerment - Leading from a place of possibility and empowerment shifts the focus to what can be achieved, fostering a positive and supportive environment. When leaders inspire others by focusing on potential rather than fear, it cultivates trust, collaboration, and sustained motivation.
Notable Highlights:
"Leading from the place of fear keeps you focused on the thing that you don't want."
"When we're leading from fear, we make worse decisions because it interrupts our capacity to think."
"When we lead from fear, we're also more likely to lead with fear."
"When you're leading from fear, you're not providing an effective ground for your team to be their best self in their work."
"Keeping the eye on what's possible creates movement, there's excitement, joy, and positive energy."
"You get a faster, more effective, cohesive, and organized result when you're leading with possibility, when everyone's leading from possibility."

In this episode, we'll talk about resilience, how beliefs and environments shape us, and why self-discovery and reflection are crucial for breaking barriers. Get to the root cause of what hinders personal growth and leadership development with Demetrius Kirk, DNPc, MBA, MSN, RN, LNHA, LSSGB, PAC-NE, QCP and me.
Key Takeaways:
Believe in Yourself - In life, believing in yourself isn't easy. It's not just about knowledge and credentials, but having the inner strength to overcome environmental limits.
Barriers to Growth - Many barriers to personal and professional growth are deeply psychological. Our minds are shaped by our beliefs, what we've been told, and how we perceive and internalize information.
The Fear of Self-Discovery - The fear of self-discovery is a major obstacle to personal growth. It makes us hide our thoughts and avoid facing our true selves. But by confronting this fear directly, we can unlock our potential and reach our goals.
Learning from Others' Experiences - A crucial way to handle failure is to be humble and seek advice from others who have faced similar challenges. This openness allows us to learn from their wisdom and perspectives, helping us improve how we approach and overcome obstacles.
Breaking Financial Barriers - Access to financial resources can significantly impact our ability to grow and develop. Without financial stability, the stress of living paycheck to paycheck can overshadow our ambitions and dreams.
