    What You THINK You Want In A Partner Is Ruining Your Love Life

    I chat with a top relationship researcher who shares shocking data on what actually leads to a compatible, successful relationship. If you want to know if you’ve found the one, or what you should actually be looking for while dating, this episode is for you. Dr. Paul Eastwick is a professor of psychology at UC Davis. He has led dozens of studies on the science of attraction, and he's the author of the best-selling book Bonded By Evolution. In this episode, he shares the real data around the relationship questions or thoughts we’ve all had. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • Why the traits we think matter most for compatibility (values, politics, looks) barely predict long-term relationship success • What men and women actually want in a partner vs. what they say they want • The two-part psychological framework that predicts whether your relationship will thrive long-term • Why physical attraction to your partner works completely differently than "objective" hotness • The real reason attraction fades and how couples can bring it back • The #1 warning sign that a relationship is heading toward a breakup • Why "love at first sight" happens to some people and not others • The truth about red flags, sparks, and soulmates • One simple daily habit to transform how you show up in relationships For more from Paul Eastwick: • Podcast, Love Factually: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/love-factually/id1766543146 • Book, Bonded by Evolution: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0593593987?tag=randohouseinc7986-20  • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pauleastwick/  Ready to uplevel every part of your life?

    Debunking Wellness Myths: Which "Toxins" Are Real & Which Are BS

    Reposting one of my favorite episodes! Do you know what the major sources of microplastics are in your home? Should you actually throw out your plastic cutting board? Are you ingesting heavy metals without even knowing it? Is your microwave hurting you? I’m joined by Dr. Vivian Chen to get real answers about the toxins we're all a little worried about—microplastics, heavy metals, EMFs, PFAS, forever chemicals, water filtration, red light therapy, and the health myths worth knowing (and the ones you can let go of). If it's a toxin you're afraid of, we're getting into it. 🎧 What you'll learn: Why fiber might be your body's best defense against the microplastics you can't avoid The exact question to ask before buying a water filter (it's not "which one is best") Why your "healthy" non-stick pan might not be as safe as the brand claims The dosing mistake that means most red light therapy devices are doing NOTHING Why microwaving food in plastic is far riskier than cutting on a plastic board The 3-step hierarchy for actually lowering your PFAS exposure (toilet paper isn't on it) For more from Dr. Vivian Chen, subscribe to her Substack: ⁠https://platefulhealth.substack.com.
