They also delve into the challenges of living a spiritual life in the midst of everyday pressures and offer practical advice on how to navigate relationships with presence and love. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The book "Love Unleashed: How to Rise in a World on the Edge" by Nicola Amadora is about creating healthy, intimate relationships and offers a mix of spirituality and psychology.

• The book is divided into four sections: life, self, relationships, and the world. Each section explores different aspects of love and connection.

• The author emphasises the importance of presence and kindness in relationships, and the need to bring spirituality and psychology together for healing and growth.

• The book includes real-life stories and practical advice on how to navigate the challenges of relationships and live love in the midst of a chaotic world.

• The author encourages readers to shift from a mindset of taking to one of giving, and to connect with the stream of love within themselves and pour it into the world.

BEST MOMENTS

"I felt like spirituality without psychology is not a good idea, because we're human." 

"Love is not something somebody can even give you unless, you know, they give it freely, but it's not." 

"I think 90% of all relationships, the pain is like, I'm not heard. I'm not seen. I'm not met." 

"I think people love, and it's about them. And it's the choices we make, the way of how we can follow the fire of passion inside." 

"Let me love you all the way, just as you have been yearning for, while so often others, feeling separate, have looked out for themselves alone."

In this episode, John interviews Elizabeth Goddard, founder of the Divorce Sanctuary and author of the book "Divorce Matters." Elizabeth shares her expertise in dealing with divorces involving manipulative and emotionally abusive partners. She discusses the importance of emotionally divorcing from a narcissistic ex-spouse and offers practical advice on navigating the divorce process, including financial considerations and negotiating assets. Elizabeth also introduces the concept of "woundology," a healing approach that addresses past life wounds and ancestral trauma.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Elizabeth Goddard's book, "Divorce Matters," is a comprehensive workbook and healing guide for individuals going through a divorce with manipulative and emotionally abusive partners.

• Emotional divorcing is an important aspect of separating from a narcissistic or manipulative partner, as it involves managing your own emotions and reactions to their behaviour.

• Woundology is a concept that Elizabeth specialises in, which involves healing past life wounds, clearing ancestral trauma, and addressing current life wounds that may be affecting relationships.

• The book "Divorce Matters" covers practical aspects of divorce, such as finances and asset splitting, while also addressing the emotional side of the process and providing tools for healing and moving forward.

• Elizabeth's work with wounds and trauma can be beneficial for individuals who have experienced emotional abuse or have unresolved wounds that are impacting their relationships. Her website, Divorce Sanctuary, provides more information on her services and how to work with her.

BEST MOMENTS

"It's a workbook healing book. It's an encompassed everything to help people who are divorcing through or divorcing manipulative people, people that are going to manipulate the process, hide things." 

"Financial control is huge. So, and it happens and this is something that continues after the divorce as well. There is an element that they will control the day it gets paid." 

"It's about letting them think they've won. I had a bonus when I was working quite a few years ago and I bought this huge TV and surround sound TV and DVD player. And it was my ex-husband like he was in heaven." 

"It's about healing some of those wounds, not just those, but other stuff as well. There might be money stuff that comes down, there might have been abuse stuff or trauma that comes back down through this ancestral line." 

"I was able to contact that part of me that wanted that attention that needed that attention that was in pain. And I was able to talk to her, calm her down. And it just changed everything."

In this episode of the Relationship Guy podcast, John is joined by Dr. Kira Markoff, a licensed clinical social worker and relationship expert. The topic of discussion is loneliness, particularly during the holiday season. Dr. Markoff shares her personal experience of feeling disconnected and explores the different types of loneliness, including external aloneness and internal barriers to connection. They discuss the impact of social media on loneliness and the importance of fulfilling social needs. The episode also delves into the causes of loneliness, such as grief, and offers strategies for overcoming loneliness, including reaching out to others and engaging in opposite action. The episode concludes with a discussion on the consequences of loneliness, highlighting its impact on mental health and overall well-being. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Loneliness can have significant negative impacts on mental health and well-being, including an increased risk of early mortality and higher rates of depression and mental distress.

• It is important to differentiate between loneliness and being alone. Loneliness is a craving or desire for connection, while being alone can be a choice or a temporary state.

• Strategies for addressing loneliness include seeking out social interactions, whether through spending time with friends and family, joining classes or groups, or simply being in the presence of others in public spaces.

• Internal barriers, such as past trauma or negative relationship experiences, can contribute to feelings of loneliness. It is important to address these barriers through therapy or self-reflection in order to cultivate meaningful connections.

• Grief can also contribute to feelings of loneliness, especially during holidays or special occasions. Connecting with others who have experienced similar losses can provide a sense of understanding and support.

BEST MOMENTS

"Loneliness is a craving or a desire for connection." 

"Sometimes psychology gives us the words to be more specific about our feelings and to understand them within ourselves." 

"Humans are social creatures. We need to be in a social group to be healthy, to thrive, to live our best life." 

"Loneliness can increase the risk of early mortality by 26%." 

"The key factor to happiness in fulfilling someone's life is the quality of their relationships."

At this time of year it's far more normal to spend time with family member, perhaps for longer periods than you may be used to. But this proximity can throw up several issues, and as John discusses in this show, there are ways to make sure that our relationships with those we love do not suffer.

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

• In general, we tend to look to our mothers for love and affection, and to our fathers for sense of pride and self-worth.
• We must take time to reflect upon and recognise the relationships that we currently have with our family members.
• One issue could come from the angle of gifts. Often we give gifts not just to make others happy, but also to gain acceptance.

BEST MOMENTS
'It's the season of goodwill to all, no matter how you might feel about things'

'Do you notice that things only seem to go well when you're doing what they want?'

'There are ways in which you can feel empowered'

John welcomes back Kira Markoff, a mental health therapist and researcher, to discuss the results of her study on mindfulness and romantic partner conflict. Kira shares that her research focused on the correlation between different facets of mindfulness and various conflict behaviours. She found that acting with awareness, intentionality, and non-judgment were key factors in reducing interactional reactivity and domination during conflicts. Kira emphasises the importance of self-awareness, self-compassion, and effective communication in creating healthy and fulfilling relationships. She also highlights the need for boundaries and self-protection when dealing with relationships that may be harmful or unresponsive to mindful approaches. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Acting with awareness, intentionality, and control over our behaviours during conflict can lead to lower levels of interactional reactivity and domination.

• Describing our thoughts and feelings skillfully and mindfully can improve communication and increase the likelihood of compromise in conflicts.

• Non-judgment, both towards ourselves and others, is important in creating a safe and open space for resolving conflicts.

• Taking time for self-soothing and self-care before engaging in conflict discussions can help regulate emotions and promote more productive conversations.

• It is essential to set and maintain healthy boundaries in relationships, prioritising self-protection and well-being when necessary.

BEST MOMENTS

"So my focus was mindfulness and romantic partner relationships." 

"It's important to be able to offer those repair attempts and then for your partner or whoever to be able to accept them." 

"If you're a person who experiences that kind of anxiety, you also need to do that physiological soothing." 

"It's important to know that we can do that for ourselves." 

"It's about finding ways to help soothe yourself so that you can come from a calm and centred place."
