In this episode, Jo talks about people that feel like they suck at flirting. They have a mental block, and when the situation turns from fun and friendly to interested, and they feel like they have to flirt, they get weird and awkward.
The problem isn't really the flirting itself; the problem is the way they FEEL about flirting. So, Jo gives some tips to think about flirting a little differently, and to address those feelings of fear and anxiety that come up.

Jo talks about taking one for the team. Taking one for the team, in the LS world, usually means one partner is willing to play with someone, usually part of a couple, that they aren't super attracted to, so that their partner can play with someone, usually the other half of said couple, they ARE super attracted to. 
There are 2 schools of thought.  Some people see it as an act of love, as a sacrifice they are willing to make for their partner. Others see it as a form of non-consensual sex, which is never justified.
Jo talks about both sides and gives some tips to help you decide on what's right for you and your relationship.

In this episode, Jo talks about people pleasing. It's that deep emotional need to please people, most often at your own expense. You put the wants, needs, and desires of other people above your own. So much so that often, you don't even KNOW what is important to you.
People pleasing sounds nice, it sounds loving and giving, but it's really not. It's really a shield people use to protect themselves because they don't feel worthy.
Jo offers some tips to overcome those people pleasing behaviors. And she also offers tips to help your loved ones adjust to the new you.

Jo talks about letting go of your fear. And she encourages you to let go of your fear, by letting go of her own fear, her fear of recording an episode without a script.

Fear is a part of life. You cannot fully experience life if you are not willing to experience fear. When fear comes up, you can either armor against it, you can run from it, or you can explore it, you can face it, you can process it, you can learn from it. You can choose to let the fear stop you from living the life you really want to live, or you can take action despite the fear.
