Customer Reviews
Encouraged Me to Open Up to Love ❤️
I discovered this podcast through the “Pep Talk:Open Up To Love” episode. I found it relatively soon after a year-long relationship with someone. I was tired of dating the same emotionally unavailable people and listened to this podcast as part of my work to determine my attachment style. This podcast has shown me that opening up more and being honest regarding my needs early on in a relationship is not only okay, but encouraged. I have established healthy boundaries and I am no longer afraid to expect reciprocity in a relationship. I recently found something that I think is finally more securely attached and cannot wait to see what the future holds 💕Thank you for being part of that journey and helping me learn more about myself 🤗
Often just what I need to hear
As I’ve been working on myself, my relationships have been shifting and it’s been really helpful to listen to this podcast - Shaun’s perspective helps to ground me in what I do already know on some level to be true, but it’s like having one of your most grounded, trusted friends remind you what you need to hear in shakey moments, even if makes you squirm a little. I also love the moments when he tears up at sweet things - love having more examples of gentle, sensitive, confident, direct men in the world.
Great Podcast!
Love the insights especially from Are All The Good Ones Taken. I felt as though you were speaking to me in regards to confirmation bias - looking for evidence that you are right that all the good ones are taken. Shaun is so relatble and talking about all the subjects that are important to the dating scene. Thank you for this podcast!
