Dr. Wendy Walsh is back for a fourth appearance on the B.rad podcast! Dr. Wendy is one of my favorite guests ever because she brings her A-game every time and dispenses an assortment of life-changing tips and insights in an easy to understand manner that you’ll remember and reflect on for a long time.

Today we set a record for one of the most information-packed, fast moving shows ever—in 36 minutes we cover enough for a typical show of double that length!

This episode will teach all about the three major attachment styles (avoidant, anxious, and insecure), how to balance our deepest biological drives with modern relationship dynamics, and what leads to sex being a “higher risk hobby” for women these days. You’ll also receive some free couples therapy and learn the five ways to sustain connection and romantic passion in your relationship. Finally, Dr. Wendy shares how she got 1 million TikTok followers in just one year, describes the four stages of personal development, and talks about the importance of examining the unconscious process and programming we all carry from childhood in order to improve our relationships. We also talk about her Patron club, which I just joined—incredible value for only $40.80 a year!

Dr. Wendy is America’s thought leader on relationships, a media commentator who is obsessed with the science of love, and the host of The Dr. Wendy Walsh Show. She also lectures on evolutionary psychology and human mating strategies at California State University Channel Islands and holds a B.A. in Journalism, a Masters degree in Psychology, and a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology.
