Sex, Love & Money with Rebecca Antonucci

Do you feel like you’ve been playing it safe, in love, in business and in life?

Are you terrified of losing everything you’ve worked so hard to build, but deep down… You know you’re being called to do things differently?

When Preston Smiles was 40 years old, he realised he had spent his whole life playing not to lose. He was calculating, controlling and avoiding failing at all costs.

But what happened when he started playing to win?

Today Preston is back on the podcast to chat about all things sex, love and money but this time we’re focusing on the mindset shift that allowed him to let go of control, reclaim his freedom and start building from abundance instead of fear.

If you missed Preston’s recent episodes with Alexi Panos, the links are below.

If this sounds like you… You don’t want to miss this one: 

If you are outwardly successful but don’t feel fulfilled

If you’ve been waiting for the man, the business, the life and is starting to wonder if you’ve waited too long

If you want to go all in, but can’t seem to shake the fear of not being in control

You know him for the sex masterclasses.

The confidence and the chaos.

But on Sex, Love & Money you get to see the version of AJ that the internet doesn’t have access to.

Today I’m sitting down with AJ Paps, sex educator with over 9.6 MILLION likes on Tik Tok (@ajpapadatos) to talk about what's going on behind the camera.

From creating his own sex toy (buy it here), the investment that lost him his savings, the biggest mistakes people are making that could be keeping them single, and the limiting beliefs he’s had to overcome to create the business that he’s expanding into now … We’re talking about it all.

Together we will cover: 

How to ask for what you want in the bedroom without triggering your partner

The story behind his new sex toy and why it’s unlike anything he’s ever promoted before

Why losing his investment was the best thing that ever happened to him

If AJ will ever share his relationship online

…and so much more.

Do you feel like your intuition might be speaking… but you’re not sure if it’s real or if it’s just fear?

Are you in that uncomfortable in-between where you’re no longer who you were but you just don’t know what’s next?

Then this episode is for you.

Today, I’m sharing two pivotal moments: 

The night I bumped into the man that ghosted me… while I was at dinner with a client.

And the day $2000 cash and my bank cards were stolen right out of my villa in Bali, and by someone who I trusted! 

Because both of these moments became proof that my intuition was guiding me the whole time. 

But this episode isn’t about my story… It’s about helping you to start to hear your own. And to start to trust the inner knowing and feeling of intuition even through intense moments of discomfort. 

You will learn: 

What it feels like to have intuition flood your body

How to stay in the discomfort and sit in the fear without rushing back to safety

What to do when you know that where you are isn’t right… but have no idea what’s next

The simple way to build trust in your intuition, so it becomes easier to follow each time

…and so much more.

This episode is for the woman who wants love.

Who wants true partnership.

Who wants the babies… 

And is quietly wondering if it’s too late for her to have it all.

Last week I had Jeddy Azuma on the pod to chat about how we can understand men better. If you missed it, queue it up on Spotify, Apple or YouTube because it’s the perfect companion to this episode.

Today I’m chatting with Kari Azuma, my nervous system mentor and one of the most powerful women I know, to chat all about dating and relating when you’re scared you’re running out of time.

We talk about the ache of longing, the fear of settling, and how to stay connected to your truth when the world is telling you to hurry up and compromise. 

Tune in to hear: 

How to stop abandoning yourself in dating just to be in partnership

What to do when you feel pressure to make the next man “the one”

How your nervous system might be tricking you into settling

How to stay soft and open without collapsing your needs

Why being powerful doesn’t mean being alone forever

…and so much more.

You’ve done the work. You’re ready for love. But why does it feel like you’re doing all the emotional lifting?

What is going on inside the minds, and hearts of the men in our lives?

Today I’m sitting down with Jeddy Azuma, a men’s coach, a rite of passage facilitator, and the husband of my nervous system mentor, Kari Azuma. Jeddy works with men to help them become leaders in their own lives, but what I love most is how grounded, open and emotionally intelligent Jeddy is.

This episode isn’t about pitying men, or fixing them. It’s about understanding them so that we can stop projecting, blaming and emasculating, and start to shift how we are relating to the men in our lives.

We talk about: 

What emotional safety actually looks like for men (and why it’s different to what we’re taught)

Why a man’s silence isn’t always what you think it is PLUS how to stop making it mean something about you

The subtle ways we’re disempowering our men even when we think we’re helping

The difference between inviting a man into his potential and dragging him there

What to do when you’ve your work… but your partner isn’t there yet

…and so much more.

Don’t miss next week’s episode because this time I’m chatting with Kari Azuma.

Have you ever felt like if people knew the real you… they’d walk away?

Have you ever carried something so heavy inside, it convinced you that you were unworthy of love?

Today’s episode is centered around facing the parts of you that you’re scared to let others see and taking BACK your internal power. I’m using my most recent dating experiences to walk you through the shifts you can make to stop living in fear of rejection and finally feel safe, loved, and fully seen for who you are.

If you have the herpes virus then you’re going to want to stick around to the end because I’m also coaching you through one of my most commonly asked questions… “How can I expect anyone to accept me with the herpes virus, if I would never have accepted someone with this?”

But this episode isn’t just about dating with HSV. It’s for anyone that feels like there’s something in their past, their personality, or even their fears that makes them unlovable. 

Together we will cover: 

The emotional difference between a preference and a boundary and why confusing the two is keeping you stuck

The single mindset shift that broke my cycle of attracting the wrong kind of partner

What dating could look like for you when you finally rid yourself of the guilt and shame

My current tinder bio that I’m using to call in my husband

…and so much more.

Are you scared that if you surrender to love… you will lose everything you’ve ever built?

Are you tired of holding money as a measure of your worth?

Last week we explored what happens when a high achieving woman surrenders control and finally starts leading with her heart. If you missed it, make sure to queue that up over on Spotify, Apple or YouTube now.

In Part 2, Blair and Garrain Jones are back and this time… we’re talking MONEY. With clients paying $72,000 each, Blair retiring her parents at 30 years old and Garrain even pulling in $500,000 in a single day… these two are incredibly successful entrepreneurs. 

But this isn’t just about numbers. It’s about identity, self-worth and the fear that if we stop hustling, we’ll stop being valuable.

So we’re diving into their relationship with money as individuals, but as a couple navigating love, power, and the art of letting go.

Together, we’ll cover: 

How Blair is creating a more powerful and liberated relationship with the frequency of money

The biggest money fears high achieving women face and how to shift into true abundance

Why Garrain charges $12K per session (and doesn’t flinch)

How your “vanilla sex” and vibrational state might be blocking your wealth

The alter ego exercise Blair uses to embody her higher woman

…and so much more.

What happens when a high achieving woman leads with her heart?

What does a relationship look like for her when she finally lets her guard down?

Blair had the career, the marriage, the money and the lifestyle that screamed success… but behind closed doors, she felt more trapped and lonely than ever. It was at her breaking point, that she met Garrain Jones.

In this intimate and powerful two part series, I’m joined by Blair and Garrain Jones, two extraordinary humans who built their empires through hustle, and who now model what’s possible when you build partnership through truth, softness and devotion.

So for every high achieving woman who's wondering…

“Can I really surrender control and still be safe?”

This is for you.

Do you feel anxious for days when a man doesn’t reply? Or when you sense a shift in his energy?

Do you ever feel ashamed of how deeply dating experiences can shake you?

Are you ready to start taking BACK your self worth, and STOP letting a man dictate your moods and emotions?

Then keep reading.

I was ghosted for the first time. And not by any man, but one that I genuinely thought I could have a future with.

In this episode, I take you inside my experience… not just to tell you what happened, but to help you see yourself in it. And I’m walking you through exactly how I moved through it, step by step, so you can too. 

These aren’t just tools that worked for me. They’re practical, powerful shifts you can use to create real emotional safety, build inner security, and finally feel grounded in your love life, no matter how someone else shows up.

When Zion was arrested at age 20, he became unemployable.

So what happened?

He started working for himself and never looked back.

From selling websites and hoodies out of his university dorm…to coaching businesses worth billions of dollars, Zion Kim’s journey has been anything but linear. It included multiple identity deaths, a personal Eat Pray Love moment in Bali, and saying yes to a $200K coach when he was making just $2k a month.

As entrepreneurs we always think we have to follow a singular path, but Zion shows you that all of your successes and failures are leading you to your most aligned and fulfilled business.

So if you’re an entrepreneur who has done the training, has the certificates, you’re good at what you do but still can’t seem to get the results you desire… this episode is for you.
