Listen Later

Happy holidays! This week, we are talking about relationships on the show. Whether you are single or in a relationship, my guest and I cover many topics applicable to all listeners. I’m thrilled to welcome back a familiar face, the dynamic Kate Anthony. If you've been following the show, you know Kate as a multi-time guest, bringing her wisdom to various discussions about shit that matters with unqualified people, which is a series I do here on the show.

But this time around, Kate is donning the hat of a qualified expert ready to tackle topics ranging from the role of porn in relationships to the challenges posed by addiction, mental illness, and emotional abuse. Kate also shares how to tell a partner you want a divorce in a clear, kind, and absolute way. 

As the author of the new book "The D Word: Making the Ultimate Decision About Your Marriage," Kate brings a wealth of knowledge to the conversation. She is also the acclaimed host of "The Divorce Survival Guide Podcast," a New York Times recommended show. Beyond podcasting, Kate is the visionary behind the groundbreaking online group coaching program, "Should I Stay or Should I Go." This program empowers women to navigate life's most challenging decisions through coaching tools, relationship education, geeky neuroscience, community support, and profound self-work.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

  • The first thing women need to look at when trying to decide to end a relationship (6:55)
  • Kate provides insights into the prevalence of narcissism in contemporary society, addressing the question: "Do you believe there are as many narcissists as people seem to think these days?" (11:47)
  • Emotional abuse and what it looks like in a relationship, including the two crucial facets of emotional abuse (17:02)
  • Shedding light on sexual abuse in marriage (35:42)
