Love, Evolved with Leigh-Anne LoPinto: Conscious Relationships

Grab your notebook and pen!  In this episode, I'm sharing a full class with you on the differences between matrix-style relationships and higher love.  Essentially, I'm describing how most people are doing relationships vs where we're headed - from the dark ages to the light. Consensus reality relationships vs the new paradigm of highly conscious relationships and spiritual partnership. Here are the seven key differences I describe:- The Basis of Attraction (trauma bonds vs clean attraction)- Fixed vs Growth Mindset- Victim Mentality vs Personal Responsibility- S.xual Distortions vs Sacred S.xuality- External vs. Internal Orientation- Truth vs Falsehood- Views on Time ApartThis is a deep dive into the basis of my work, what I stand for, and where I'm guiding people towards.  If you have any questions, or need support, please book a free 30 minute call with me to go deeper and learn how we can work together.  As always, I'm including a ton of resources for you below.Book a Free 30 Minute Callhttps://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-callAttachment Styles + How to Healhttps://www.love-evolved.us/attachment-styles--how-to-heal.htmlThe Trap of Codependency + How to Break Freehttps://www.love-evolved.us/the-trap-of-codependecy.htmlThe War on Love, Sex + RelationshipsAlchemy, Divine Union, and Spiritual EnlightenmentTowards Sexual SovereigntyEmpath/Narcissism with Dr. George SimonTranscending the Control GameThe Frequency of TruthCarol Dweck on Growth MentalityVictim/Drama TriangleEmpowerment TriangleConnect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

What a fun episode all about relationship astrology!  Sarah Norris is a spiritual coach with a heart centred, holistic approach. She weaves astrology, tarot, yoga and aromatherapy together to guide you to personal empowerment, using the information from the readings in a constructive and practical way.We get into the basics of relationship astrology, both what you can learn from your own birth chart, and from a synastry chart (comparing two people together). We get into the basics of working with astrology for insights into our relationships, focusing mostly on romantic relationships, and how we can use our birth chart to understand ourselves better, understand our partners better, and how we can work together in partnership. We cover general compatibility through sun signs, Venus and Mars placements, and the descendant.  We also talk about how Venus and Mars relate to the divine feminine and masculine energies, and ways you can go deeper when looking to see what house each of these falls in.Sarah also covers some interesting bits about the north node and south node placements in a synastry chart that I had never learned before.  She also shares about the different aspects and what they mean (sextile, trine, conjunction, opposition, square, etc.) We hope you enjoy this episode; what questions or comments do you have for us?  Relationship astrology can go so, so deep, so I highly recommend that you book a session with Sarah if you want to go deeper.Sarah's website for readingsSarah's baby books for astrologySarah's InstagramSarah's FacebookTo pull free astrology charts:https://www.astro.com/https://cafeastrology.com/Book recommendations:Linda Goodman - Sun SignsDebra Silverman - The Missing ElementIntro + Outro music:  "Medicine" by HOL + Layv:https://open.spotify.com/track/4BqVa6DrpX8h7RWEBIcy6H?si=01c847feae5c45dehttps://www.instagram.com/hollygottlieb/Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

I loved this conversation with Sophie + Yerasimos about their relationship of almost 10 years.  They are both deeply dedicated to inner work and growth, which really shows in the marriage they've created.  We speak about how important it was for them to build a strong foundation of friendship first, which allowed them to get to know each other in a way that looks very different from the typical process of dating.  We also discussed how they get through conflict in a healthy way, the importance of not sweeping things under the rug, and elevating each other towards their highest selves. Understanding basic relationship psychology, attachment styles, and parts work are key for these two; in addition to understanding the nervous system and human design.Personal responsibility is a huge value for these two, and it really shows!  I have seen this to be such a key value in healthy relationships, when both people are able to take ownership for their stuff, to apologize and repair. These two are so real and straightforward; lots of takeaways for inspiration.  Reach out with any comments or questions!LINKSYerasimos + Joel's Here for the Truth podcasthttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/here-for-the-truth/id1570026970?i=1000645752674Sophie + Yerasimos' wedding videohttps://www.instagram.com/reel/C3J7lOYtNOz/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==Yerasimos' links:http://www.riseabovetheherd.co/https://hereforthetruth.com/https://www.instagram.com/_yerasimos/Sophie's links:https://sophiefletcherphd.com/about-sophiehttps://www.instagram.com/sophiefletcher.phd/https://www.thekindbrain.com/back-to-you-retreatIntro + Outro music:  "Medicine" by HOL + Layv:https://open.spotify.com/track/4BqVa6DrpX8h7RWEBIcy6H?si=01c847feae5c45dehttps://www.instagram.com/hollygottlieb/Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

This week, I share the story of my almost 20 year relationship with my ex-husband and father of my child, the man I truly believed was my soulmate, and how I moved through total rock bottom when our marriage collapsed.I share the hard lessons I had to learn about what I was bringing into the relationship that was not working (things like insecure attachment, low self worth, codependency, and victim mentality) and how I healed.I also share how I learned to love and value myself, moved into secure attachment, learned about boundaries, and unhooked from codependency.  And, how I stopped being a people pleaser and moved into true authenticity.  I also speak about how I learned to navigate conflict, speak truth, and become an empowered empath.  There's so much more in this episode, too!Healing from divorce and hard break-ups is 100% possible when we understand that there is wisdom in the wounds and have support people around us who can help alchemize and learn the lessons that we need to learn.As always, I share tons of resources in the show notes, including my video lessons on How to Heal from a Breakup and The Trap of Codependency.RESOURCES:Video Lesson:  How to Heal From a BreakupVideo Lesson:  The Trap of Codependency + How to Break FreePodcast:  Conscious Relationships: The Foundations for SuccessFree Guide:  How to Choose a Partner WiselyLynne Forrest's article on the drama triangleBook: Conscious LovingBook:  Transformation through IntimacyConnect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

This is the most public I have ever been about my story. [Note: I don't get into details of the abuse, but rather focus on the negative affects I faced as a result, and the approach I took to heal.  This is a fairly easy listen, so please dive in.]  I have learned that a dual approach to healing is required - working both psychologically and energetically - and share why.  Sexual abuse is a major challenge we are facing collectively, and in order to heal, we need to speak openly and honestly, remove the shame, and get to work.The energy behind sexual abuse is a predator that seeks to control and manipulate in order to gain power.  Once you understand this, it gives you a much more complete picture of how to address it.In this episode, I share:- How the negative impacts of abuse showed up in my life, both psychologically and energetically- Dealing with social anxiety, poor boundaries, low self worth, sexual shame, promiscuity, distrust of men, internalized misogyny, and major drug and alcohol abuse- How a history of this kind of abuse can create love and sex addictions- The story of my last major partnership and how the energy was working behind the scenes to destroy things- How healing needs to include a psychological approach in addition to an energetic approach, and what that looks like- Tons of breathwork resources for energy clearing- My work around sexual sovereignty, part of the solutionThe War on Love, Sex + RelationshipsBreathwork:- I give a visual demonstration of the technique here.- Here is the first energy clearing breathwork. - This is the second audio that focuses on clearing the sexual abuse energy.- This is the latest one called Clearing Sexual Abuse Energy Out of the Body- Finally, this is an older one called Sexual HealingEve Lorgen - The Dark Side of CupidBernhard Guenther's articleConnect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

In this episode, I go deeper on the topic of codependency in parenting.I talk about what codependency is and how it shows up in the parent/child relationship - through a lack of healthy boundaries, enmeshment, over-involvement, and more.  Codependency in parenting also correlates to permissive parenting.  Single parents need to be especially vigilant, as codependency can unconsciously cause them to treat the child as their spouse.  They may fill an internal void with the child's life and not give them space to develop their own sense of self.I speak about the negative impacts codependency in parenting has on children and teenagers, and also speak about energetic cords and energetic standpoint of problems it can cause.Ultimately, every step forward in your own healing of codependence will benefit your child (or future children).  I hope this episode is helpful for you; please reach out if you need support.Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute CallLeigh-Anne's InstagramLeigh-Anne's WebsiteSubstack ArticlesFree Guide: How to Choose a Partner WiselyI hope you enjoy this episode - please rate, review and subscribe to support the podcast.Resources:The Trap of Codependency + How to Break Free:https://www.love-evolved.us/the-trap-of-codependecy.htmlHere for the Truth Episode #167:  The Art of Conscious Relationshipshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/here-for-the-truth/id1570026970?i=1000645752674Sexual Sovereignty:https://leighannelopinto.substack.com/p/towards-sexual-sovereignty-the-alchemicalThe War on Love, Sex + Relationships:https://leighannelopinto.substack.com/p/the-war-on-love-sex-relationshipsThe Rise of Narcissism with Dr. George Simon:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/love-evolved-conscious-relationships/id1589898399?i=1000625190054Alfa Vedic Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

This is a very special episode where I asked my client Alysondra Duke to share her story of building an incredible life of empowerment, self-love, expansion, and conscious relating.  Alysondra has come from a life that has not been easy - a tough childhood with less than ideal caregiving that led to relational wounding that impacted her adult relationships.  When we met, she was settling for way less than she deserved in relationships.  Now, with committed work and dedication to building a life that she is proud of, she is a completely different person.  I can't wait to share this inspiring conversation with you!We talk about:- How childhood dynamics with parents/caregivers imprint us and play out in our adult relationships- Rebelling against being told you can't do something/be something (using it as fuel)- The pattern of choosing unavailable partners and where this comes from- The wound of 'needing to be chosen'- People pleasing and needing to caretake others, abandoning our own needs- Developing healthy self-love and self-worth as a foundation for healthy relationships- Learning to put ourselves first when we are 'givers' or empaths- Moving towards secure attachment from avoidant or anxious attachment- Owning your patterns and healing them as a source of empowerment vs. being stuck in victim mentality- The empath-narcissist dynamic and the importance of boundaries- How gaslighting chips away at self-esteem and creates confusion and self-distrust- Calling bad behavior what it is vs. being overly nice and accepting- The 'high tolerance for bullshit' that is so common with empaths- Spotting red flags and developing discernment while dating- How to use the body as an instrument, tuning in to what it's telling you when you're around other people- How trauma can impact our sexuality- Watching our attraction patterns as we are healing (when we know we are typically attracted to partners who don't treat us well)- Our grand visions for what incredible relationships look likeConnect with Alysondra below:Alysondra's WebsiteAlysondra's InstagramConnect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute CallLeigh-Anne's InstagramLeigh-Anne's WebsiteSubstack ArticlesFree Guide: How to Choose a Partner WiselyConnect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

In this episode, I define this concept of sexual sovereignty that I've been speaking about over the past few months, offering a casual chat/intro to this work that I took much deeper on Substack.  Here's the article I referenced - a great resource to take this work deeper.Today I cover:Just as we are shaped and molded and conditioned throughout our life by external influences, our environment and everything around us, the same thing happens with our sexuality.What this means is, for those of us who are interested in getting to the truth of who we really are, the path from the false self to the true self, we should include a deep dive into our sexuality to find out what is true and what is not true for us.I don't hear many people talking about this, instead it's just a debaucherous celebration of anything goes and all urges running wild without questioning or caring where some of these impulses came from.I understand that there's a collective process happening and some people need to throw off the reigns when it comes to sexuality to explore.However, we also need to be aware that the larger forces that be are VERY intent on programming us in a certain direction.They are taking advantage of this collective urge and turning it haywire.What I see clearly within this is that there is an attack on love, sex, and relationships (I began talking about this in 2021).Within this, there is an attack on healthy, stable, long term monogamous relationships.And, there is an attack on God.  because all of this is very anti-life and anti-God.Much more on all of this in today's episode.  As always, would love to hear your questions and comments, and I'll be speaking a lot more about sexuality and how we can elevate it moving forward.  Be in touch if you need support, you can book a free call with me below.Connect with me below:Book a Free 30 Minute CallWebsiteInstagramSubstackEmail ListI hope you enjoy this episode!  Please rate, review and subscribe to support this work.  Thank you for listening!  I do this for you 🙏Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

In this powerful conversation with Khatija Dadabhoy, we speak about our undying love and devotion to men collectively, seeing their greatness and welcoming them into their greatness, despite both of us having very difficult and hurtful experiences with men.We share our stories around relating with men, starting from childhood, why we feel like women still have faith despite being hurt, and what our grand visions are for the future of the relationship between men + women.We also speak of:Our inner longing for redemption Our desire keeps it alive, this continued search for union with menWomen needing to be clear about what they really want from men - we are sending confusing mixed signalsMen not trusting women’s word - how many women are not truthful and transparent in relationship about what they want, need, etc.The problem of men shapeshifting into what women want - instead, knowing who he is and operating from that place (and how this actually makes him trustworthy)Men stuck collectively in an immature dynamic, not fully mature men.  What is preventing them from growing into a full grown man taking responsibility, etc?  Lack of male initiations as in the past, and strong male mentors?Women:  checking our rescuer/caretaker (fine line between inspiring him and controlling him)This was an important conversation where we try to see the bigger thing, take ownership for our part, and also reflect on where men can step up.  Let us know what you think - reach out to either of us with any comments or questions.  Thanks for listening!References:Mikaal Bates on what his partner said to himJeddy Azuma on men fearing emotional vulnerabilityLorin Krenn on the willingness to do the workConnect with Khatija below:Khatija's InstagramKhatija's WebsiteConnect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute CallLeigh-Anne's InstagramLeigh-Anne's WebsiteSubstack ArticlesTelegram GroupConnect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

I'm so happy to share this conversation that I had with my friend Katrina Hart, talking about the journey of evolution through integrating and working with the inner masculine (Carl Jung refers to this as animus integration).This episode is for any woman who wants to learn more about working with the inner masculine for overall balance and harmony - both within herself and with relationships with others.  We speak about the importance of discernment, boundaries, logic, courageousness and overall strength.When we develop our inner masculine in healthy ways, it can help hold our embodiment of the feminine principle at deeper levels.  This also helps us to learn the energetic agility to dance between both energetics as needed in our day to day lives - in addition to knowing the energetic signature of the healthy masculine so we can spot it in men if we are choosing partners.Books:The Archetypes and The Collective Unconscious - Carl JungAnimus and Anima - Emma JungThe Animus: The Spirit of Inner Truth in Women - Barbara HannahNathan Martin - The Unity Process Mark Passio - The Unholy FeminineConnect with Katrina via email - katrina@loveyoutobeyou.com Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute ConsultLove, Evolved - my websiteLeigh-Anne's InstagramI hope you enjoy this episode - please rate, review and subscribe to support the podcast.Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

In this episode, I speak about this huge problem that I see with the women who come to me for support - they continually get themselves involved with men who do not treat them very well.  The sexual attraction to these "bad boys" is so strong that despite their best intentions, they get pulled in and mixed up in very unhealthy relationships.I talk about why this problem is so widespread, what we can do to rewire our sexual attraction so that we desire healthy, stable partners, and how to begin deconditioning ourselves from the programming that has influenced us around what traits are desirable in men.  I also speak about the link between sexual abuse and trauma and how healing these wounds can help heal your sexuality by removing the mixed up abuse and sexual energy so that you can experience relationships filled with love and support while reclaiming your right to have a fulfilling sex life.Links mentioned in this episode:Raise the BarThe War on Love, Sex + RelationshipsMark Passio: The Unholy FeminineConnect with me below:Book a Free 30 Minute ConsultLove, Evolved - my websiteLeigh-Anne's InstagramI hope you enjoy this episode - please rate, review and subscribe to support the podcast.Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

This episode is short and sweet, and is for you if you've ever shape shifted or molded yourself into someone you're not in order to get love (whether consciously or unconsciously, and especially during dating or the beginning stages of a relationship.) We've all done this, so there's no shame.  But there is a way out, especially because this usually comes back to bite us in the end.In this episode, I speak all about the importance of authenticity and how to create relationships from the true self.  The payoff is worth everything.Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Love, Evolved - Leigh-Anne's websiteLeigh-Anne's InstagramI hope you enjoy this episode - please rate, review and subscribe to support the podcast.Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

On this episode, Roy Wang and I speak about the theme of men, women, and power.  What is true power vs. false power, and how can the journey towards empowerment sometimes look different for men and women?How can power be a healthy goal for all of us, a spiritual journey, and an essential part of becoming integrated men and women?We speak about so many different expressions of power: physical strength, beauty, authenticity, knowing your true self, and women as oracles.  Ultimately, we believe that both men and women can both claim their unique gifts of power in order to help lift each other up vs. compete with each other.This is an essential episode to listen to in order to understand how empowerment is our birthright, how returning to traditional gender roles may not be the way, and what the path forward can look like for collaborative relationships between men + women.Roy Wang is a coach with a mission to help men end cycles of shame, discover their inner strength, awaken to their true self, and be of service to the world.Please reach out to Roy or myself with any comments or questions - we would love to hear your thoughts on this discussion.Connect with Roy below:Roy's websiteRoy's InstagramConnect with Leigh-Anne below:Love, Evolved - Leigh-Anne's websiteLeigh-Anne's InstagramI hope you enjoy this episode - please rate, review and subscribe to support the work.Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

Anya Shakh, host of the Venus and Mars podcast, joins us for this incredible discussion on the higher and lower path of relationships.  We are at the crossroads right now in love, sex, and relationships.  The higher path that is wide open and available for us to step into involves highly conscious relationships and the spiritual path of divine union.The lower path is everything in our culture that is preventing us from stepping in to this higher road - the division between men + women, depolarization, erosion of human connection, and technology.  It also includes the trend of non-monogamy and giving up on commitment, confusion and chaos in relating to one another, and hyper-individualism.  Anya and I are passionate about healing the relationship between men + women and bridging the gap.  Now is not the time to give up on each other, we need each other more than ever.  There are things we can do to heal and come back together in healthy, lasting ways, and we speak about all of this on the episode.Connect with Anya + I below, and reach out with any comments or questions.Anya's InstagramAnya's substackAnya's Venus and Mars podcast - our Reclaiming Womanhood episodeAnya + Leigh-Anne's IG Live - Restoring Harmony Between Men + WomenConnect with Leigh-Anne below - I'm a holistic psychologist specializing in love, sex and relationships, using a combination of therapy + breathwork with clients.Love, Evolved - my websiteLeigh-Anne's InstagramI hope you enjoy this episode!  Please rate, review and subscribe to support this work.Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.

In this episode, I talk with Quentin Hick, who I met in Lorin Krenn’s membership community.   My intention for this episode is to elevate men's voices and show examples of men doing the work who care about improving relationships and learning new ways of relating.  In the world of love + relationships, the conversations and spaces are dominated by women, and the #1 thing I hear from the women that I work with is, "where are all the conscious men?"  So recently, I've been inviting more men on the podcast to serve as examples that yes, there are men who care about this work.Episode outline:- Quentin shares his personal journey into the world of personal development/polarity- Men’s resistance to therapy + having humility- Overall relationship dynamics between men and women- How we can move towards more thoughtful, healthy relationships with each other- The concept of inner union, which is the internal balance of the masculine and the feminine- The incredible benefits of breathwork and how it's changed our lives- Our visions for the new paradigm of relationships between men and womenPlease reach out to Quentin and I with any comments or questions!Connect with Quentin here:Quentin’s Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/qrealtor.hick/Quentin’s Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/quentin.hickQuentin’s Podcast:  https://open.spotify.com/show/523er5OmaZn3KYkJ5nCOGS?si=61acbb6d36f54869About Me:My name is Leigh-Anne, and I'm a holistic psychologist specializing in love and relationships.  I'm particularly passionate about spiritual partnership through divine union, which includes masculine/feminine polarity.  I'm an advocate of both women's work and men's work happening side by side to heal the relationship between men + women.My one-on-one work with clients includes a powerful combination of breathwork + therapy to break through blocks and patterns and get right into the heart of the matter.Connect with me below to schedule a call so I can hear what's going on for you + share how I can help.Website:https://www.love-evolved.us/Instagram:Connect with Leigh-Anne below:Book a Free 30 Minute Call:https://calendly.com/leighannel/free-30-minute-call The Wayshowers: Mentorship Leigh-Anne's Instagram Leigh-Anne's Website Leigh-Anne's Substack Telegram Group The Trap of Codependency (free teaching video) I hope you enjoy this episode - please share this with anyone who may need to listen.I'd also LOVE if you could rate, review and subscribe to the podcast if you find it useful.
