[8:45] “Sometimes we grow up in a strict conservative and religious upbringing, where we get no education on sex, and then we also get misinformation.

We just don't learn about how they can be tools to learn about ourselves or to build desire.
[15:18] “we're very groomed in society to like, You know, pay the bills or like go grocery shopping and you know, take the kids to soccer practice and those are beautiful things that are publicly socially acceptable but you know, we're not taught from a young age: hey, like, let's talk about what areas on your partner's body that they really like touched or what areas do you like touched and how can you vocalize that”

A former Industrial and Systems Engineer, Derek Wittman is an LMHC in NY and LPC in PA with over 10 years in clinical practice. From the treatment of Substance Use Disorders to couples therapy with the Gottman Method, he had seen families reconnect in healing from the grip of trauma into restored relationships.
With precious operations management experience, Wittman has recently taken the leap from his Clinical Manager position with a top 10 national healthcare company to start his own solo private practice.
Noteworthy quotes from this episode:
[27:17] "and I recognize that if she is hurt about something I did or said, that's absolutely valid, it doesn't mean that she hates me, it means that she trusts me enough to say it. And I'm so glad that I can offer her that level of safety, that she can rest on me and rest in a relationship and I don't get offended by her feelings. I want her to feel safe with me. I see in various communities that I'm a part of where ‘Am I overreacting?’ is a very common question. It's like, well, your feelings are not a reaction period. They're all internal. What are you doing with those feelings? You're throwing a temper tantrum? Are you crying? Are you calmly sharing how you feel about something? I hope I can always be calmly sharing or receiving something.”

Noteworthy quotes from this episode:
[07:15] "I expected to walk into the doctor and the psych and they heal me after one session and that would be it. They give me a magic pill and that would be it. Didn't happen.

[35:34] "I think we need to start normalizing mental health in the same way that we normalize our physical health. Our minds are important part of it because the mind is what gets everything going. So if our mind's cluttered or, fuzzy or depressed or anything like that there's there's ways that we can fix that."

Noteworthy quotes from this episode:
“Use Ketamine first because it can be an introductory [psychedelic] and that might be all you need. It's accessible, it's super, super safe, it's legal and the effects are short lasting, but the after effects are long lasting. So it really is like a good primer for psychedelics.”
“The biggest side effect is really that enhanced mood that lasts up to two weeks after, even if you're just doing the one dose. Clients report just feeling more energy, feeling a sense of lightness, you know just more joy, understanding and peace.”

Summary
Irena helps people overcome toxic relationship patterns from their childhood so they can master love in adult relationships.
In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- What it’s like growing up in an emotionally abusive environment.
- Why it’s important to recognize red flags in relationships and discover what changes you need to make for a healthy relationship.
- Re-parenting, healing the inner child, and identifying and challenging self-limiting beliefs and unhealthy attachment styles.
- The challenges of online dating and their experience with consensual non-monogamy.
Irena was born and raised in Ukraine. After moving to USA in 2001 in search of better life and getting married at 23, her envisioned happily ever after crumbled very quickly. Growing up in an environment where all her emotions had to be suppressed, feeling unloved and abandoned, she only learned how to be ready for a fight, how to blame others and how to look for external validation desperately trying to feel worthy.
After trying out various types of relationships, monogamy & polyamory, after having my two children, and living in different countries,she realized that she was the common denominator in all her unsuccessful attempts at relationships. She had to make changes. And she did. It was a long and painful process, but it was worth it. Now, being back in USA, she is dedicated to help others to acquire crucial skills for forming and sustaining healthy relationships.

Noteworthy quotes from this episode:
“Because when we get triggered, this only points us in the area where work is needed. So when kids trigger me, that means something is healing within me, it's not the kids, it's me and it has made my parenting. It's still challenging. Don't get me wrong, but it has made it much easier.”
“I think the biggest issue they deal with is they're probably still using some kind of coping mechanisms they acquired long ago and they're just not realizing that their belief system is no longer serving them. And instead of reevaluating this system and their mechanisms and their default modes, they just keep applying them and applying, but it's no longer working.“

Summary
Adam discusses how extreme sports have influenced his perspective on non-monogamy and how facing challenges such as jealousy and self-worth issues have led to personal growth.
In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- Adam's experiences with jealousy and imposter syndrome in a non-monogamous relationship, emphasizing the importance of autonomy and choice in exploring different sexual experiences.
- Adam making the connection between his fears in extreme sports and emotional challenges, emphasizing the importance of managing fear in ENM relationships.
- Adam’s experience dealing with stigma and judgment from people who didn’t understand his chosen path for non-monogamy
Adam has been an adventure seeker his whole life. Climbing some of the world's steepest mountains, snowboarding epic backcountry mountain terrain, and BASE jumping off of objects and cliffs. Seeking the risk rather than the reward has been his guiding mantra and life philosophy, and it's what drew him into the world of non-monogamy at the age of 40. As Adam likes to say, he strives to get comfortable being uncomfortable because that's where his real living begins. But non-monogamy ended up being the ultimate test of his commitment to that philosophy.

Noteworthy quotes from this episode:
“I had to honestly solve my personal issues in my psyche around the impostor syndrome because that's what was driving a lot of the jealousy. And then once I got there, I could really sink into the healthy jealousy.”
“Masculinity was deciding about what kind of man I wanted to be. Do I want to be someone that friends, lovers, family members could count on, could they count on me physically? They can count on me emotionally. It meant being strong, not just showing people you were strong."

Noteworthy quotes from this episode:
“Inner child healing is very simply just reconnecting with your emotions to be with your emotions rather than engaging in behavior such as fixing someone else or rescuing a situation that we people-pleasers do.

Choice Theory
Existentialism Therapy
Noteworthy quotes from this episode:
“[ENM] does not have to be any kind of way as long as all members involved feel safe and like they are being respected in the relationships.”
“[Partners demonstrating people-pleasing] may be quieter or they're going to protest slightly but they back down. So it's very much like being pulled along is how I would describe it. That doesn't mean they're being coerced necessarily or not wanting it, but having that lack of differentiation of identifying really what their own needs, values, and feelings are and actually verbalizing them is what I notice.”

Unlocking the Power of ADHD Coaching: From Procrastination to Productivity Kamden worked as an educator in a variety of capacities for over ten years. She has always felt the most fulfilled helping others realize their true potential. Years after her daughter was diagnosed, Kamden received her own ADHD diagnosis at 36 years old and quickly began advocating and researching to learn how to build her new amazing life as an ADHDer. Kamden developed TheADHDirectory after feeling the overwhelm of accessing ADHD information on the internet. This service is a one time 1:1 consultation service to help ADHDers (adults and minors) connect with personal and tailored resources including coaches, podcasts, books, and subscriptions that will help direct them to their ADHD home.
Main Points from the Show: This podcast episode explored various aspects of ADHD, including the lack of accommodations for students with ADHD, differences in diagnosis between childhood and adulthood, and how women may not get diagnosed or get misdiagnosed due to certain gender roles. The discussion also touched on the overlap between ADHD and anxiety or depression, and how ADHD coaching can help individuals get to the root of the problem and create systems that work for them. The episode also covered how to work with procrastination and ADHD, and how partners can support those with ADHD by being vulnerable, accepting the diagnosis, and asking for consent when offering help. Ultimately, ADHD is not a deficit of attention but a self-regulation disorder that affects emotions, time, impulsivity, and communication.Stay in touch with Kamden:

Why does it matter so much to others how many partner's someone has?Rachael Purtell is a PhD Candidate that focuses on consensual non-monogamy (CNM) stigma and research, monogamy and sexism/patriarchy, bi/pansexual erasure. Rachael also sees teaching as a form of activism and believes it can be transformative and that her critical reflection of her positionality as a white, cisgender woman—who continues to benefit from whiteness both inside and outside the academy—has helped her to leverage her privilege to challenge the pervasive dominant ideologies and discursive forms of violence within academia and organizations.
Main points from the show:In this podcast episode, we delve into the world of consensual non-monogamy (CNM) and its intersection with LGBTQIA+ communities. We talk about the statistics around CNM and discuss the lack of education and knowledge surrounding this topic, even among professionals in the field of sexuality and sexual orientation. Rachael noted the communication styles in CNM relationships and how jealousy is not only an issue in CNM dynamics but in other relationship dynamics as well. We discuss the stigma and barriers to healthcare for CNM communities and the lack of legal protections for marginalized communities. There is an intersection of monogamy and patriarchy and Rachael speaks to the disadvantages that women face in monogamous relationships.

Main points from the show:
- Intuitive eating is coming back to what our body is asking for
- How restricting what you want to have can lead to unhealthy eating habits and giving yourself the freedom to eat what you want takes the power out of food.
- Body image comes down to mindset, not about what you look like
- Affirmations alone don’t achieve deep lasting change to help you improve your body image. The mirror exercise can help you change the way you view yourself.
- Body acceptance can be more achievable than body positivity
- Praising a partner on losing weight can do more hurt than good. Try praising on the actions your partner is taking on their health journey instead.
- How to set healthy boundaries when other people are commenting on your eating habits
- How does body image and working on a health journey impact your sex life
- How to feel more safe and confident in yourself so that you can create a safe energy around being intimate

In this episode I got to chat with the founders of In This Moment.
In This Moment is a subscription craft box for kids ages 4-8, emphasizing mindfulness and promoting social and emotional learning. Monthly crafts are designed to help kids develop awareness of their inner and outer worlds and introduce them to concepts promoting compassion for themselves and others!
Research shows us that children who practice mindfulness and participate in social and emotional learning have reduced anxiety, fewer behavioral problems, and overall show improvements in academic performance, attitude, and prosocial behavior.
Mindfulness is something that cannot simply be taught, but needs to be experienced! In This Moment teaches kids to experience mindfulness in a way that is digestible and that they will enjoy.
This episode dives into:
What mindfulness is
Benefits of mindfulness in children and how In This Moment boxes helps promote mindfulness
What patterns we bring to different relationships and how mindfulness can help you become more aware
What it’s like to tune into your present experience and how to deal with any discomfort that may come with it
You can order boxes directly from their website on www.inthismomentbox.com
