066: Cultural Blueprints: When Someone Offers me $$ for Sex
Someone offered me money for sex, *after I had already said - no. This can be a triggered situation for many women when men don't respond to no. This guy was not American and the way he spoke me really got me thinking of the cultural blueprints that men have that teach them how to treat/interact with women. Everyone lives with these blueprints (belief systems) and I've been noticing the blueprints that men have and how they vary from culture to culture. Curious to learn more?

060 Seasonal Depression? What to Keep in Mind with Season Change and Holidays.
This time of year, I receive many messages from people who are feeling depressed and anxious. I have a different perspective than most when it comes to these things. What are they telling you about your growth? It's darker and in some places (in Minnesota!) colder AND the holidays can throw you into your emotional family triggers that you've been avoiding since last winter. There is a lot to chat about here. This is a solo episode where I break down things to keep in mind as we move into the holiday season and winter. xo.

055 How to REALLY Connect in Relationships
Hristiyan sat down with me in the East Bay.... with little structure. Sometimes I DON'T know what we are going to talk about. (A strength to roll and a weakness when a structure can be helpful.) But he's awesome and shared his story how he got into his passion for relationships... Starting off in the pick up world, realizing what was really important in connecting with people. One thing that stood out to me is when he said that 'most people's suffering happens in their home." --- Which stood out to me. People need this reminder. We can point our finger at some external thing to blame, when so many people are just living miserable disconnected lives. He also pointed out many illusions of relationships and that ultimately relationships take work. Thanks for rolling with me Hristiyan!! ********************************* My BSW guest..... Hristiyan has a passion for helping men, women and couples create deep, fulfilling connections with each other through self-empowerment, presence, healing, compassion, and understanding the depths of personal relating. His unique ability to work with people and bring transformation to the individual and to their relationships has led him to develop and lead workshops for Pickup101, LVO3, and now for himself. He has extensively studied the work of David Deida, meditation, spirituality, coaching, leadership, and advanced facilitation techniques. This enables him to transmit his extensive knowledge of intimacy, seduction, relationships and sexuality while delivering real results in people’s lives – helping them to attract who they want, build their skills in the gift of seduction, and have the relationships and sex lives they desire. ---> ************************************** Reach out to Janelle--> [email protected]
