Relationships Let's Talk About It‪!‬ Pripo Teplitsky

In this episode I have a conversation with Jackie Dobrinska. Jackie is a teacher, coach, and spiritual director who has married two decades of mystical practices with 15 years of expertise in physical health, including diet, herbalism, and Ayurveda. She works with people to live from their truest essence. In addition to coaching individuals and leading group workshops, she is currently the Director of Education, Community & Inclusion for Ram Dass' Love, Serve, Remember Foundation.
We have a conversation about body image. Are you satisfied with what you see when you look in the mirror? Regardless of what you may think, both men and women, of all ages, are affected by negative body image. How an individual evaluates one’s self has a great deal to do with the quality of one’s interpersonal relationships. How we actually embody our body is a better barameter to understand our relationship with our body’s and how we relate to others.
“The first step is to be present with your own body”

Corey Costanzo is the Co-Owner of Asheville’s Still Point Wellness Spa, a licensed addiction counselor, trauma specialist, licensed massage therapist, master didgeridoo player, colleague, and good friend.
In this episode, Corey and I have a conversation about bonding through trauma and another aspect of which is called “trauma bonding”. A trauma bond is an attachment formed between two people who unconsciously bond through an experience or experiences of shared trauma. We also hear of trauma bonds in narcissistic abuse within an adult relationship. However, most of these relationships do not begin just in adult relationships, they begin early on in our childhood and they manifest and continue in our adult lives.
“Walking away from the cycle of trauma bonding can feel like you are weening yourself  off an addiction”.
- Corey Costanzo

In this episode I have a conversation with Laura Callahan, BA., CHt. Laura is a clinical hypnotherapist specializing in assisting clients with sexual dysfunction, trauma resolution, anxiety and fertility issues. She is also a Certified HypnoBirthing® Educator. She works with clients via Zoom throughout the US, Canada and elsewhere around the world!
We have a conversation about Sexual Freedom through Hypnosis. Sex and intimacy can be a major source of anxiety in people’s lives. More than 40% of people have a sexual dysfunction issue, and it is believed that about two-thirds of sexual dysfunction and issue have a psychological cause. Hypnosis can help in a positive way. It can help people overcome past trauma, change unhelpful beliefs, and assist in accepting our bodies and sexuality.
“The mind is the most powerful sex organ!”

In this episode I have a conversation with my wife, Yvonne Rainbow Teplitsky. She is the founder of Artsy Goddess Studio, where she actively carries out her role in helping others and the planet heal. Rainbow is passionate about art, as seen in the upcycled clothing she creates from second-hand materials, as well as the visual arts she creates, such as murals, paintings, and tapestries. She also helps women transform through voice empowering workshops and helps couples through workshops and retreats that she co-facilitates with me.
One definition of benefit of the doubt is “to believe something good about someone, rather than something bad, when you have the possibility of doing either.” It also promotes positivity and patience in your relationship. It keeps your partner from jumping into defensive mode and it shows them that you trust and appreciate them. However, it is much more challenging to do this if there have been incidences of betrayal like infidelity or chronic lies. 
“As a first response, be curious not furious, it can turn a potential conflict into understanding” 
- Yvonne Rainbow Teplitsky

In this solocast I talk about the importance of knowing that balancing important parts of our life (work, relationship and self) is not about equality. Your work-life balance will vary over time. The best work-life balance is different for each of us because we all have different priorities and different lives. Balance also requires that we honor our energy. It is important to identify habits, activities, and people that drain our energy. We need to check in with ourselves regularly to make sure we prioritize what’s important to us.
“Balance is about being in integrity with your values and the choices you make in whether they are aligned with those values” - Pripo Teplitsky

Marriage is usually the union of two people in love, and it is a legal commitment that has familial, social, and economic implications. People marry for so many reasons. Some marry to raise a family together, to commit to their relationship on a deeper level, cultural or religious reasons or the desire to experience varies legal advantages. People also marry for unhealthy reasons like to escape a dysfunctional home, because your friends are getting married, because a baby is on the way, or your partner pressures you, etc, etc. Marriage is another way couples commit to each other in a deeper way.
In this episode, I have a conversation with NikiAnne Feinberg, she discusses the reasons that her and her partner Chris decided to marry after over 10 years of being in relationship and their experiences in their commitment along the way. NikiAnne considers relationships her primary learning ground and her human tribe some of her greatest teachers. It's not a surprise that NikiAnne chose to make her home in community at Earthaven Ecovillage, where learning how to be human with other humans is one of the main tasks at hand. In 2012, she co-founded the School of Integrated Living (affectionately known as SOIL), which inspires and empowers people to live responsible and creative lives, through experiential education in integrated living and regenerative systems. Her life in community and her time working in environments that honor learning through personal experience and relationships, have shaped her cooperative cultural values and commitment to supporting people to think, feel, act, and design from a foundation rooted in interrelationship. No matter what she’s engaged in, NikiAnne is always on the same mission: to foster a sense of belonging within ourselves and the world, enhance healthy connections and help people to be seen and appreciated for the gifts they are bringing to their communities. She’s especially eager to support those in transition – between vocations, stages of life, and stories of world and self. Within this context, she is particularly passionate about fostering belonging, community grief tending, and death care midwifery.
 
“I used that chamber, that time period and container of engagement to engage myself , to engage my heart’s longings and to see if I wanted to marry” 
- NikiAnne Feinberg
