Relationship Expert: The Myths That Destroy Marriages & Keep You From Being Happy | Vanessa Bennett
Vanessa Bennett, LMFT, is a licensed depth therapist, and author of the new book, The Motherhood Myth: A Depth Therapist’s Guide to Redefine Parenting, Reimagine Intimacy, and Reclaim the Self.
Today on the show we discuss why relationships often fall apart after having kids, the hidden identity crisis that comes with becoming a parent, the dangerous myth that motherhood and partnership should come naturally and effortlessly, why having a baby never fixes a broken relationship and usually exposes deep cracks instead, how real intimacy goes far beyond sex into emotional connection and shared responsibility, and why purpose and partnership — not power or control — are the foundation of healthy modern relationships
