  • Why You Don't Know Who You Are Anymore?! Codependency, Motherhood & the Unconscious Mind

    Why You Don't Know Who You Are Anymore?! Codependency, Motherhood & the Unconscious Mind
    2026/06/05
    How much of who you are is actually yours, and how much was handed to you by the stories, expectations, and cultural myths you grew up believing? In this episode, therapist Eli Weinstein sits down with licensed marriage and family therapist, author, and Jungian depth psychology practitioner Vanessa Bennett for a powerful conversation about identity, codependency, motherhood, relationships, and the unconscious narratives that quietly shape our lives. Drawing from her new book, The Motherhood Myth, Vanessa explores how many of the messages we receive about motherhood, self-sacrifice, gender roles, and worth are rooted in systems that have existed for generations. Together, Eli and Vanessa unpack how these stories influence not only mothers, but all of us—whether we're parents or not. They discuss why martyrdom has become intertwined with modern motherhood, how shame fuels codependent behaviors, and what happens when our identities become dependent on our children, partners, or external validation. Vanessa explains why so many people find themselves saying, "I don't know who I am anymore," and how that question often reveals a much deeper truth. The conversation also dives into masculinity, fatherhood, sexuality, emotional regulation, and the hidden ways people use relationships to avoid discomfort and uncertainty. Vanessa shares how Jungian psychology helps us understand the symbolic stories we inherit—from Mother Mary to Cinderella—and why healing often begins by questioning the narratives we've accepted without realizing it. This episode is an invitation to examine the stories shaping your life, reconnect with your authentic identity, and build relationships rooted in responsibility rather than dependency. If you've ever struggled with losing yourself in a relationship, parenthood, people-pleasing, codependency, or the pressure to be everything for everyone, this conversation is for you. Topics Covered: What the "Motherhood Myth" actually is and why it affects everyone—not just parents How martyrdom became connected to motherhood and self-worth The role shame plays in codependency and identity formation Why patriarchy impacts both women and menAnd more Resources & Links: 📘 The Motherhood Myth by Vanessa Bennett 📘 It's Not Me, It's You by Vanessa Bennett & John Kim 📱 Instagram: @vanessabennett ✍️ Substack: Vanessa Bennett Connect with Eli & The Dude Therapist: 🌐 EliWeinsteinLCSW.com/book 📱 Eli's Instagram: @eliweinstein_lcsw 🎙️ Podcast Instagram: @thedudetherapist About Vanessa Bennett: Vanessa Bennett is a licensed marriage and family therapist, author, and Jungian depth psychology practitioner specializing in codependency recovery, relationships, and the unconscious mind.

  • Why Most People Don’t Know How to Love | Robin Ducharme & Eli Weinstein

    Why Most People Don’t Know How to Love | Robin Ducharme & Eli Weinstein
    2026/05/28
    How do we actually build healthy relationships in a world where most people were never taught how to love well? And why do so many relationships fail, not because people don't care, but because they never learned the skills required to sustain connection? In this episode, therapist Eli Weinstein sits down with relationship educator, podcast host, and author Robin Ducharme for a deeply thoughtful conversation about relational literacy, forgiveness, emotional responsibility, and what it truly means to create intentional relationships. Robin shares how six years of interviewing some of the world's leading relationship experts, including Esther Perel, Dr. Sue Johnson, the Gottmans, Dr. Shefali, and many more, completely transformed the way she views love, partnership, parenting, and self-growth. Together, Eli and Robin unpack the myths that quietly sabotage modern relationships, including the pressure to find "the one," the obsession with chemistry and sparks, and the unrealistic expectation that one person should fulfill every emotional need we have. They also explore how resentment keeps couples emotionally trapped in the past, why forgiveness is often misunderstood, and how intentionality changes the entire foundation of a relationship from the very beginning. Eli opens up about the emotional weight of trying to convince people to love you the way you need. Robin reflects on how quitting alcohol helped her become more present, peaceful, and emotionally connected in her relationships. This conversation dives deep into communication, emotional maturity, parenting, healing, and the everyday practices that create stronger relationships over time. It's not about perfection—it's about learning the skills most of us were never taught. If you've ever struggled with resentment, emotional disconnection, unrealistic expectations in love, or learning how to show up better in relationships, this episode is for you. Topics Covered: What "relational literacy" actually means Why most people were never taught how to build healthy relationships The soulmate myth and why "finding the one" can be harmful Why chemistry and sparks are often overrated How resentment quietly destroys connection over time What forgiveness really means in relationships The importance of intentionality from the beginning Why quitting alcohol changed Robin's relationships and mindset How to stop trying to convince people to love you properly And more Resources & Links: 📘 Real Love Ready by Robin Ducharme 🌐 RealLoveReady.com 🎙️ Let's Talk Love Podcast 🌸 In Bloom Summit Connect with Eli & The Dude Therapist: 📖 Book: From I Do To We Do 🌐 EliWeinsteinLCSW.com/book 📱 Eli's Instagram: @eliweinstein_lcsw 🎙️ Podcast Instagram: @thedudetherapist About Robin Ducharme: Robin Ducharme is the founder of Real Love Ready, host of the Let's Talk Love podcast, and author of Real Love Ready: A Guide to Relational Literacy.

  • The Hidden Reason So Many People Feel Unhappy | Dr. Gillian Mandich

    The Hidden Reason So Many People Feel Unhappy | Dr. Gillian Mandich
    2026/05/20
    What does it actually take to be happy? And why are so many of us chasing it the wrong way? In this episode, Eli Weinstein sits down with happiness researcher, professor, and author Dr. Gillian Mandich for a deeply honest conversation about what science says happiness really is, and what it isn't. From toxic positivity and emotional suppression to social connection, discipline, and daily habits, Dr. Gillian breaks down why happiness isn't a destination you arrive at, but a practice you build over time. Dr. Gillian shares her unexpected path into studying happiness and why some of the most common beliefs we have about fulfillment are actually making us more miserable. Together, Eli and Dr. Gillian unpack the pressure to always appear positive, how negativity bias quietly shapes our lives, and why chasing constant happiness can leave people feeling even more disconnected. They also explore the power of "micro-moments," why hard things aren't necessarily bad things, and how meaningful relationships impact both mental and physical health. Eli opens up about the pressure of being perceived as "the happy guy," the importance of family dinners without phones, and what it means to create intentional moments of connection in a world designed to distract us. This is a conversation about happiness, pressure, emotional honesty, and learning how to build a life that actually feels good, not just one that looks good from the outside. If you've ever wondered why happiness feels so hard to hold onto, this episode is for you! Topics Covered: Why happiness is something you practice, not something you find The truth about “the pursuit of happiness” Why trying to be happy all the time can backfire The science behind negativity biasWhat “micro-moments” are and why they matter Toxic positivity and emotional suppression Why social connection predicts long-term happiness and health Resources & Links: 📱 Dr. Gillian Mandich: https://www.instagram.com/drgillianmandich/ 🌐 GillianMandich.com Connect with Eli & The Dude Therapist: 📖 Book: From I Do To We Do 🌐 https://www.eliweinsteinlcsw.com/book 📱 Eli’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eliweinstein_lcsw/ 🎙️ Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedudetherapist/ This show is hosted by Eli Weinstein and produced by Rainbow Creative.Executive Producer & Editor: Matthew “MoJo” Jones For sales and sponsorship opportunities, contact: podcasts@rainbowcreative.co CHAPTERS 0:00 – Intro & Welcome 2:00 – How Dr. Gillian Accidentally Became a Happiness Researcher 6:15 – Why Most People Misunderstand Happiness 10:00 – The Real Meaning Behind “The Pursuit of Happiness” 14:00 – Happiness as a Practice, Not a Destination 18:10 – Why Constant Positivity Backfires 22:30 – The Science of Micro-Moments 27:45 – Toxic Positivity & Emotional Suppression 33:00 – Negativity Bias and Rewiring the Brain 38:20 – Hard Things Aren’t Always Bad Things 44:00 – Social Media, Comparison & Happiness 49:00 – The #1 Predictor of Long-Term Happiness 54:00 – Why Family Connection Matters More Than We Think Learn more about your ad choices.
