    2025/06/26

    Send us a text

    Caregiving isn’t just about love. It’s about expectations, exhaustion, and the quiet unraveling that happens when your needs are always last.

    In this episode, Anna and Tim crack open the emotional reality of caregiving; the roles we take on, the ones we’re handed, and how they can feel good until they don’t. Join them as they name what rarely gets said: the burnout, the self-erasure, and the resentment that builds when care turns into obligation.

    This Episode Covers:

    • Why saying “I don’t want to” can feel impossible
    • The tension between love and emotional depletion
    • How caregiving identities can slowly consume you
    • Performing capacity vs actually having it
    • Feeling like it’s never your turn
    • Rage, withdrawal, and the need to be witnessed
    • Why resentment doesn’t make you unloving
    • Letting go of the fantasy of being the “good one”


    Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.
    Mad love!

    It starts as a quiet shift. The late-night touch you pull away from. The dishes left in the sink. The constant list running in your head. Until one day you realize, you haven’t had sex in weeks. Maybe months. Maybe longer.

From perimenopause and mental load to resentment, health scares, and just pure exhaustion, they break down the slow unraveling of intimacy and why so many couples quietly drift apart in the bedroom.

    • What “desire drift” actually looks and feels like
    • The impact of stress, mental load, and chronic resentment
    • Why novelty matters more than you think
    • How sex changes after kids, chemo, and menopause
    • The difference between physical and emotional foreplay

  • 236. The Mental Load Is Heavy and It’s Making Us Resentful
    2025/06/05

    Send us a text

    If you’ve ever felt like you’re the only one who knows when the toilet paper’s running low, the school form is due, or the dog needs shots—you’re not imagining it. That’s the mental load. And it’s exhausting.

    Join Anna and Tim for a candid conversation about the invisible labor women are carrying in homes, relationships, and parenting. They break down how this unspoken workload creates resentment, impacts intimacy, and leaves so many women burned out. You’ll leave with language, validation, and practical ideas to start shifting the dynamic.

    This episode covers:

    • What the mental load actually is and how it shows up daily
    • Why women often carry both the “what” and the “how” of family life
    • How resentment builds when invisible labor goes unacknowledged
    • The connection between mental load and burnout in relationships
    • Why men often don’t see the problem—and how to shift that
    • How to talk about this without blame or spiraling
    • Tools for redistributing the emotional and logistical weight at home


    Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.

    2025/05/22

    Send us a text

    "Just be positive." "Everything happens for a reason." These phrases might sound helpful—but they often shut people down instead of lifting them up. Toxic positivity and spiritual bypassing are everywhere, from coaching circles to everyday conversations. And they're doing more harm than we realize.

    Join Anna and Tim as they dive deep into how these patterns dismiss pain, suppress emotion, and stall true growth. They unpack red flags to watch for, how these messages show up in the wellness industry, and what to say instead when someone is struggling. If you've ever felt unseen in the name of “good vibes only,” this one’s for you.

    This episode covers:

    • The difference between toxic positivity and spiritual bypassing
    • Why saying “just trust the universe” can shut people down
    • How to recognize when someone is bypassing emotional truth
    • The role of social media in spreading positivity that hurts
    • What coaches and professionals need to understand about deep pain
    • Why discomfort is necessary for healing and growth
    • Practical language to hold space instead of minimizing


    Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.
