Making Love Podcast

In this episode, Eva and John trace the invisible threads between land and body—how the Earth herself has shaped them, drawn them together, and continues to guide their path. They explore their relationship with different lands across the world, speaking to how each place feels like a living acupuncture point on the planet—activating different parts of their being, like the chakras of a greater Earth-body.

Together, they reflect on how certain geographies resonate with specific energies, how climates, mountains, forests, and rivers stir distinct parts of the soul—and how the nature of each place invites a different way of relating to one’s own body, to spirit, and to each other.

This episode is a journey through memory and myth, guided by the question: What if the land itself is dreaming us into who we are becoming? Eva and John share how their own story was born from this way of listening—an indigenous way of being in relationship with Earth, where prayer is conversation, and love is a living dialogue with place.

In this episode, Eva and John explore the question: What is home?

It's a theme that’s been close to Eva’s heart for much of her life. Since she was 14, she’s lived a nomadic life—moving across countries, cultures, and relationships. The past six years have been especially full of movement, with only a few moments of pause. One of those was her recent stay in Thailand, which gave her a rare taste of stillness. But now, on the move again, the question returns.

Together, Eva and John reflect on how each of them relates to the idea of home—what it means, how it changes, and where it’s found. Is it in a place, a person, a feeling? Can it exist in the in-between?

This episode is a personal and honest conversation about belonging, transition, and the ongoing search for grounding.

Season Two opens with a personal and tender episode, as they find each other again after time spent following individual paths.

Coming off six weeks in Eva’s native Europe, this marks a new chapter in their relationship. 

Together, they explore what it means to be reunited, how distance has shifted their perspectives, and what intentions they carry as they begin again in a new environment.

It’s a moment of reconnection, reflection, and quiet beginning—gently setting the tone for the season ahead.

Patience and compromise they say...

But to be born in this reality,There is turmoil between you,and unity.

For how do we see through separation,When we are told there are borders around every nation?.

Patience and compromise they say...

But how do I open up my eyes in every way…

To see through…To see through…To see through..

For I see me,And I see you,Living in the truth..

We are not just mortals,We are the creators of the future yet to come.And the steps that we step inIs the nation yet to begun.

Step after step,Time after time,we unwind …. . .. And unwind . . .

To un~veil all there is yet to be seen..

But no newness in the history,In the roots,we have always, always, been...

To come into simplicity…How can we be in unity

And bring connection within separation…To the space in between every nation?..

✴︎ Start at the heart.✴︎ And share your art,

And just…take a breath..

Lessons to the self,Not wisdom from the old —Just to undo and maybe write theStories told and untold.

So bring connection…within separation . . ...

In this final episode of Season One, Eva and John close the chapter of their time in the Czech Republic — the land of Eva’s childhood and a place John visited for the first time as they spent over a month there together.

It’s a tender and intimate glimpse into their shared life, woven from memories and reflections on their five weeks in the Czech lands.

They share the story of how, in Thailand before arriving in the Czech Republic, they discovered the name for their relationship: Ariel. A being of its own, Ariel holds and guides their connection, a circle and a triangle created from their two polarities meeting. In this episode, Eva and John open the door to this hidden part of their relationship, offering a window into the magic that holds them together and the dreams they’re co-creating.

It’s a sweet, reflective pause to end the season — a soft exhale of gratitude for all that has been shared.

In this episode, Eva and John dive into the question of leadership in our world and within their relationship — what it means to lead, what it means to follow, and how to find balance between the two. Eva opens up about her personal exploration of leadership, the desire to be a strong guide, but also to soften and trust, to relax into the flow of following. Together, they explore how leadership in a relationship isn’t about dominance, but about attunement — listening deeply, taking turns, and honoring each other’s natural rhythms.

As their conversation unfolds, something real begins to happen in the moment. There’s a tender pause where emotions rise, and the dance of leading and following comes alive between them. 

They navigate that tender space together, finding their way back to each other’s presence. It’s a living example of the topic they’re exploring — a reminder that true leadership in a relationship is a dance of co-creation and vulnerability.

In this episode, Eva and John explore the unspoken agreements that often shape our relationships — those quiet expectations that, as we grow closer, we should spend more and more time together. They reflect on how these silent contracts can feel like invisible threads binding our time and energy, and how they’ve learned to honor freedom within their partnership.

They share how they see each moment of presence as a gift, freely given rather than demanded. They explore the tension between togetherness and spaciousness — the dance of sharing life while also making room to grow as individuals. 

This episode invites listeners into the heart of this delicate balance: how do we stay connected while honoring our own rhythms of space and freedom?

In this expansive conversation, Eva and John open up more intimately about their relationship, sharing a window into the inner workings of their love and the foundation they’ve been building beneath it.  They reflect on the early intentions they set when coming together: To consciously explore sex, money, and power as essential pillars of their union, and to cultivate a relationship that expands them rather than consumes them.  With honesty and playfulness, they speak to the delicate art of clearing expectations, making agreements, and holding space for each other’s growth, visions, and wholeness. 

This is a longer, more colorful episode, where things unfold in many directions. In it, you get to know more of Eva and John’s inner worlds, the love they’re cultivating, and what Making Love means to them—both as a relationship and a creative path.

Together, they explore what it means to make love—not just in intimacy, but in presence, in tension, and in the midst of inherited disarray.

The Pain Body as an Ancestral Entity - Second Episode of Making Love.

In this episode, John and Eva reflect on the challenge and importance of taking responsibility for our own pain and discomfort while being in a relationship.

The episode begins with Eva sharing a personal and raw moment that unfolded after returning from an ancestral workshop in her homeland, the Czech Republic.  What started with a beautiful connection to her Slavic roots turned into an overwhelming wave of ancient pain that consumed her body and heart.  The pain was bigger and older than anything she knows herself to be.  

Eva speaks with John about the physicality of this “pain body” and they touch on how easy it is in a relationship to want to rescue each other in difficult personal moments.  John shares his personal challenges with a savior complex, and the courage it takes to stay rooted while holding space. 

This is a touching conversation about reclaiming power, seeing old patterns clearly, and practicing the ancient art of living with pain — an art that makes space for both self and others.
