Relationships Let's Talk About It!

Thank you all for listening and journeying with me these past six years!

In this episode my wife, Rainbow and I talk about how doing this podcast has affected our relationship over the last six years. We discuss ways that we have grown, been challenged and worked together in this project. We also talk about how compatibility is navigated in our relationship.

Yvonne Rainbow Teplitsky is the founder of Artsy Goddess Studio, where she actively carries out her role in helping others and the planet heal. Rainbow is passionate about art, as seen in the upcycled clothing she creates from second-hand materials, as well as the visual arts she creates, such as murals, paintings, and tapestries. Yvonne also helps women transform through voice empowering workshops and helps couples through workshops and retreats that she co-facilitates with me.

Jared Hinton M.A, M.A.T, LCMHC is a psychotherapist in private practice in Asheville, NC. Jared is a husband, father, and a person in long-term recovery. His work focuses on helping individuals and couples heal from patterns of ancestral, familial, and relational trauma. Jared is a graduate of Naropa University's Contemplative and Buddhist Psychology program and a student of the Appalachian Gestalt Institute in Asheville.

In this episode, Jared and I have a conversation about the challenges men face in having healthy relationships. We talk about how men can save relationships by learning vulnerability and that vulnerability is a great strength. We point out that many men experience intense emotions but, lack the training and support to make sense of those feelings. Men deserve to be seen, and their emotions validated, without their masculinity being called into question.

In this solocast I talk about the benefits of approaching and taking with strangers. We have been programmed to believe taking to strangers is dangerous. My experience though tells me that the wide majority of my interactions with strangers are positive and growth orientating. I believe it builds trust, intuition, communication skills as well a feeling of belonging to the greater community of humans.

In this solocast I talk about the importance of focusing on how you want to respond instead of focusing on other people’s reactions, responses, or behaviors. We have no control over changing others'; we only have control and choice over how we respond to others. Our relationship with ourselves is reflected in this “discipline”.
