On Episode #1, Kindra Murphy looks at dating as spiritual awakenings, even with what she coins F**K boys, or men who french kiss their dog on the first date. Recovered from long term sexual abuse as a child by a female babysitter, she stands by “hurt people,” and sees how we bring all ranges of trauma into our romantic relationships. If we want to truly be intimate and in love, we need to look within first and ask, what do I want out of my romantic relationships?

How deep do you go on a first date with open communication? Do you try and force chemistry because the person is “nice”?

We dive in deep to the truths behind the baggage we bring to the table, and of course, she talks about what holds her back from writing her book, writing in the car, and seeking to find the book's perfect ending. Kindra references a great book - The Boy Who Was Raised by a Dog (What Traumatized children can teach us about Loss, Love and Healing) by Bruce Perry and Maia Szalavitz.
