Intro:
Today's episode takes us on a deep dive into the transformation of the dating and pickup industry into what's now known as the red pill movement and beyond. We'll explore the nuances of male and female aging and discuss why it may be easier for older men to date younger women.
Robbie opens up about his initial skepticism toward self-help dating advice and how "The Game" by Neil Strauss sparked a pivotal change after a breakup. We'll hear riveting tales of Robbie's days partying it up in Eastern Europe, hosting soirees that painted the town red, and the introspective journey that led him from casual flings to finding fulfillment in coaching men on relationships and self-acceptance.
Touching on the delicate topic of men's belief in their ability to improve dating success, we will dissect perceptions, realities, and the pivotal "player zone." We share our own transformation from the world of casual relationships to searching for meaningful connections, echoing the collective journey many of us take.

Intro:
Today, we'll be diving deep into a topic that touches many relationships - dealing with boredom. We all know that relationships can lose their initial spark as the lustre of new love fades. But what lies beyond the excitement? Can we find a richer, more nuanced form of connection?
In this episode about dealing with relationship boredom, we'll analyze the intricacies of long-term commitment and how the initial rush of passion can transform into a comforting sense of home and security. 
We'll hear from two of our clients as they navigate their own challenges, from anxiety over labeling a relationship to knowing when it's time to seek variety or move on to new horizons. 
And I'll share some of my personal journey from prioritizing sexual conquests to recognizing the value in deeper, more intellectual connections with partners.
We'll also explore how societal norms and mental health intertwine with our concepts of monogamy and commitment.
So, whether you find yourself pressured to define a relationship, wondering how to maintain attraction over time, or simply searching for ways to reinvigorate your partnership, this episode is tailored for you.
