Hey guys! This episode is all about improving communication patterns and dynamics in your relationships. I dive deep with L.A.-based psychotherapist and author, Dr. Jeff Chernin, about his must-read book, “Get Closer: A Gay Men’s Guide to Intimacy and Relationships.”  If you’re in a relationship, you want to be in one or you’re learning from one that just ended, this episode is for you. 

Tune in to hear Dr. Chernin and I talk about…

• What to do when you and you’re man are in a “Pursuer-Withdrawer” pattern
• How to balance out differences in power that show up around money, status
• Taking responsibility for our part in unhealthy dynamics including infidelity
• Setting your partner up for success to meet your needs
• Identifying your “hidden goals” and “secondary gains” that block your intimacy
• What contribution you’re making to your “not enoughness”
• The benefits and advantages of being gay couples
• How gay, bi and queer men are leaders of negotiating healthy sexual lives together
