  • 177. All relationships are business deals, ESPECIALLY with dudes: ROI, self-esteem and having your own back

    Today we're discussing how loving men romantically is predicated on making GOOD BUSINESS DEALS


    What's the ROI on this relationship? Are you getting more than you give? To me the dissatisfaction and "ruin" of women in relationships with men is less a man/woman problem and more a self-esteem issue. It's a lack of relational accounting skills. And the boyz have these, so we're studying them and learning from them.

    This used to feel cynical to me because I love love. But having business sense doesn'rt negative love, it facilitates and protects it: boundaries, clarity, self-esteem, decisiveness and standards are the potting soil of love!

  • 171. ‘The Invite’ movie review: romantic relationships aren’t self-esteem vending machines!

    I loved ‘The Invite’ and it had me thinking deeply about relationships, so let’s get into it. This is 20% movie review (spoilers included) and 80% musings on modern dating, relationships and gender psychology. I discuss:



    • Dead bedrooms, desire and the suppression of sexual appetite
    • Using romance to fulfil your unmet needs
    • What happens when people look for a replacement parent in their partner (men looking for mothers and women looking for fathers)
    • Why monogamous people are so pressed by polyamory

  • 169. Suicide, Depression + how To make life Worth Living

    Firstly, if you’re actively suicidal please call your country’s suicide hotline, they’re angels <3 

    The intention of this episode is to speak to folks who feel their life is not worth living anymore. I want to let you know that you aren’t alone and there is quite a bit to live for and these things have a low barrier to entry. I get into the literal specifics about 40min in. The first 40min are my thoughts on life and death, discussing why one might be suicidal, the different types of suicidality, and why I believe it is our moral imperative to live as colourful a life as possible. I have no moral position about whether suicide is “right”

     or “wrong”. I believe everyone has a right to choose to stay or go. I argue that it’s more rational to stay and explain why. If you’re struggling right now I am sending you the BIGGEST HUG. Life is tough, you are tougher


    Things discussed:


    • There is no shame in being depressed or suicidal
    • How to find agency and purpose
    • Self-esteem affects your will to live
    • Boredom and ennui are deadly
    • Self assertion and hobbies

  • 164. Your Dream Life is CLOSER than you think, mama!!!

    If you know what you need to do but cant bring yourself to do it, this isn’t “bad” sign. You’re just trying to leapfrog too many Identities at once. Let’s chat about it


    • Coherence
    • Energetic over-ambition leads to hectic rebounding
    • You have to take your nervous system with you
    • There is no rush, take your time with Identity Shifts - we are going nowhere slowly
