I am so excited because this is always one of my favorite episodes of the entire year... it is our Valentine's episode!! 

In years past I've interviewed sex therapists, my parents, relationships coaches, and this year I'm so excited to bring on my amazing friend Anya Shakh. 

Anya's goal is to help bring harmony between the sexes during a time where we feel more disconnected and more misunderstood than ever. 

We're all trying to navigate this changing terrain where men and women's roles are becoming more and more blurred, dating has devolv...

We are jumping right back into our conversation from last week's Valentine's Day episode where I'm sharing my most hard-earned lessons from 3.5 years of singlehood and over 200 dates! If you didn't catch the first episode, click here to take a listen!

Summary

It's no secret that I love talking about health and weight loss. And while nutrition tips, fitness strategies, and mindset mastery are all major components of that, we can't overlook the important role our relationships play in our wellbeing. 

And with Valentine's day around the corner, I could think of no 2 better people to talk on this subject than my own mom and dad.
