Take it from us, a man’s dick is NOT the way to his heart. V and Elly talk love, lust and the often misguided belief that jumping in the sack and pleasing a man’s … “anatomy” is a surefire way to his heart! The episode launches in with the ladies sharing some exciting news, “Reclaiming Love” is here to stay (for a little while longer at least)! The ladies commit to more of this awesomeness with more exciting developments in the works. Once you’ve calmed yourself back down from all the squeals of excitement, you’ll hear Veronica share the strategy that she saw she was running when it came to the podcast. It may be worth exploring if you too have had a pattern of running when things get hard? Veronica leads by example to remind you to lean into that uncomfortable edge and allow yourself to go all in as you grow. Elly jumps on the topic of strategies and shares how her and the guy have decided to use a different strategy when it comes to intimacy (things took a turn after the last episode). Elly and “the guy” have agreed to slow things right down, creating little pockets of love, go on romantic dates and truly get to know each other's minds before diving into each other's bodies. Veronica gets all sciency and shares about a recent episode of the Mark Groves podcast (we love you Mark!) which explains the neurochemistry occurring for those with an avoidant attachment style. They also explore how this likely contributed to their past relationship choices when it comes to overly objectifying themselves, looking to attain a “hit” from the validation of a sexual connection. Your science lesson for the day includes some loose explanations of the neurotransmitter involved in sex, you’re welcome! They then tackle the topic at hand, reminding everyone (including past versions of themselves) that the way to someone's heart is simply NOT through their genitals. They hash out the nuances of this often hard learned truth (no pun intended) to explore why taking it slow is the ultimate power move! Elly then shares how she's been stepping into vulnerability with “the guy” by asking for what she needs, communicating even when it feels wickedly uncomfortable! She tells of how she keeps opening and sharing her heart, even when it's scary. And the result of her vulnerability led to the sweetest little date that she shared with one lucky “the guy”. The gals then break down some ideas for what a listener can do with a problem they brought to the “relationship helpline”: what to do when you continually feel unmet and not good enough for your parents. A reminder that as you do the work it’s important to “reparent” yourself, rather than rely on anyone else to change for you to feel great again. Get ready for some sassy insights and eye-opening revelations that'll have you redefining your dating game so you can “swipe left” to unmet expectations and broken hearts. Another powerful episode which reminds you to love, respect and care for yourself as the top priority! Let the ladies know if you’re on this journey too, to stop objectifying yourself—because love is a marathon, not a sprint (and definitely not a sprint to the bedroom)!
