Today, I sit down with Alan Lazaros and Emilia Smith — hosts of The Conscious Couples Podcast and founders of a growing movement aimed at helping people get off autopilot and build deeply intentional, growth-oriented relationships. This isn't your typical love talk. We dig into the science, psychology, and strategy behind what it truly means to be a conscious couple. Mr. Lazaros brings his engineering mind, and Ms. Smith brings years of inner work and trauma understanding, fusing their strengths into something powerful.
We break down the concept of autopilot in relationships and why most people are unaware they're operating from outdated, unconscious patterns. Ms. Smith shares clinical insights about how trauma, repetition, and social media create doom loops in our thinking—causing many to give up on great relationships before they even begin. We explore how AI is complicating matters, with some people outsourcing emotional intelligence to machines. Mr. Lazaros compares doing such to watching a robot life the weights for you and expecting muscle growth. However, both guests do not entirely oppose leveraging AI in relationships, but rather how and why a person is doing so.
In the second half of our conversation, we focus on the top three issues killing modern relationships: money wounds, mismatched love languages, and different levels of growth orientation. From there, Mr. Lazaros and Ms. Smith walk us through why these issues are so prevalent and the mindset shifts necessary to build something that lasts. We also talk about how Gen Z and Gen Alpha are facing completely different challenges than prior generations—especially when it comes to love, tech, and self-awareness.
