EP 51: The Lie That Binds: How Fear, Blame & Avoidance Hijack Your Desire


Listen Later

If you think your relationship is stuck because your partner won’t change, you’re lying to yourself.

Your intimacy isn’t dying because of them —it’s dying because you’re hiding behind the same bullshit story you’ve been recycling for years.

“I’m too broken.”

“They’re too broken.”

“It’ll get better when THEY finally do something.”


No.It won’t.

And deep down, you already know that.

This episode is a slap in the face to every excuse that keeps your love life mediocre, numb, shut down, or stale.

Dr. Saida and Aaron Michael rip apart the patterns you’ve been protecting — the pretending, the resentment, the apathy, the pornified fantasies, the emotional laziness — and show you the truth:

Your relationship changes the moment YOU stop bullshitting yourself.Not one second before.

Inside, you’ll confront:

  • how you sabotage connection in ways you swear you don’t

  • why you keep attracting resistance — in them and in yourself

  • the truth your body’s been whispering, screaming, then shutting down over

  • the cycle that turns dead bedrooms into electric, alive intimacy

If you’re terrified to look in the mirror, good.

That means you’re finally ready.

This episode isn’t gentle.

It’s not comforting.

It’s the line in the sand.

Listen only if you’re done living small —and done blaming everyone else for it.
