Hey! In this episode I shared my story with breakup urges in my relationship with my now-husband and partner for 14 years. Boy do I know the panic of the thought "BREAK UP!" I also shared how I stopped experiencing these altogether, and how you can work with me in 2026.   Join me for the entire year in UNWAVERING: End the drama in your relationships You'll get: Access to my three best-selling 8-week group programs in spring, summer, and fall Plus an exclusive community ONLY for those that join for all three seasons, where we will meet monthly for trainings and Q&As to help you integrate and keep the momentum going all year long.

Hot take: relationship anxiety is the fear of being "stuck" or powerless. There's no shame in falling into the trap of thinking we'll be victims to the circumstances in our lives— but once you see it... you don't have to choose it. You can choose to stay empowered no matter what your decision is. Listen in. Links: Spark Reset: Feel something again for a man you already love Yin Language Patreon - next call Saturday Nov 15!

End the war within yourself with Stefi Preiss   In this episode, I bring one of my dearest friends and mentors, Stefi Preiss, to discuss a practice that helped me step out of relationship anxiety and commit to my partner (now husband and daddy to my baby!) with my whole heart. We discuss what a polarity looks like, how it can create healing in ourselves, our families, and ultimately — the world (especially in this heatedly escalating political environment).   We'll be co-teaching this practice in our upcoming 6-week series for women, Tension of Opposites, starting July 10th.   Discounts are available to Both Feet In students and Patrons

A question we've had come up in our self-study course and also in our DMs– what do you do if your partner watches porn or follows a bunch of hot women on social media? (This speaks mostly to a pattern I see coming from women in relationships with men, but as always, not always.) In this episode, I share some thoughts on (particularly the excessive use of) pornography … as always, take what empowers you, and discard what doesn't. This conversation has lots of context and nuance I can't possibly cover in one episode! Links:   Email List - Stay in touch I'm going on maternity leave in January!

When you're experiencing relationship anxiety, hearing "trust your gut" or "listen to your intuition" can be one of the most triggering things you can hear. Is your intuition telling you to leave, or is it ROCD? Tune in with Chelsea Joy Horton, OCD specialist with her masters in dance movement therapy and counseling.

There are hidden costs of reassurance seeking, the act of trying to find certainty about your relationship. If you tend to constantly be searching for the perfect piece of advice (even from me!), you're addicted to the illusion of certainty as a means of feeling safe. Listen to this episode for things you can do instead to reignite the spark in your relationship and not dampen it through reassurance-seeking.   Email List - Stay in touch I'm going on maternity leave in January!
