    Ep. 10 The Episode Episode

    CW: Adam shares about his experiences during manic episodes. Please check in with yourself before listening & seek support if you or someone you love is experiencing psychosis.   Adam shares about his experiences with mania and manic episodes. This is a big part of our story as individuals and as a couple and we are feeling really humbled to be able to share this with you. There are many details we have kept private, but we offer you a really good look into what this type of event can look like- its psychedelic and healing aspects, as well as the more painful aspects for both the individual and their loved ones.    Thank you for listening to our story. We hope it helps make you feel a little less alone today.  Love, Adam and Samantha

    Ep. 8 Layers and Lairs of Love

    Things are shifting in big ways for Adam and Samantha!  In this week’s episode, we dive into a conversation about healing our codependency in our partnership.  This one is silly at the surface but is seriously juicy, deep and important at the same time. We recorded this one on the eve of the Full Supermoon in Capricorn, and you can tell!

    Ep. 7 Pt. 2 Let’s talk about sex, baby

    Last week’s episode all about sex brought in our most listens yet! So, we had to bring it back for a part 2. This week, we dive deeper into what we believe has kept our sex life alive and well after over a decade together. We talk about some of the moments it hasn’t felt so hott, too. Cause we’re human, and that happens.

    Ep. 4 Mambo Number 5

    The title will make sense, I promise.    Disclaimer/ CW: Samantha goes on a high tangent about having compassion for people who do bad things and she manages to slip in a convo about school shooters. This conversation requires so much more nuance & context than was covered here.    That being said, in this convo we name some of our favorite artists and creatives and why they inspire us. Spoiler alert: we get really mooshy and name each other. There’s also some tangents about: cheerleading, math, celebrities, and all of the other fun things that high people like to talk about.

    In this weeks episode, Adam is coming out of what we lovingly refer to as "the pit of despair" and reflects on the lessons these dark times offer. We explore the idea of cultivating the inner peace that guides you through.  Adam apologizes for the occasional background noises you may hear. We're totally baked, remember? :)

    Ep. 1 Storytelling as a Healing Art

    Welcome to The Higher Love Pod! We’re a millennial couple navigating life, love, and everything in between- one smoke sesh at a time. Meet your hosts: Samantha Mendonca, sex educator, fat activist, and intuitive healer and their partner, Adam Mendonca, musician, teacher, and spiritual seeker. In this episode, we share our why: an opportunity to be real and vulnerable- sharing our journey to maybe hold a mirror up to your own. Also, we have no intention of taking ourselves too seriously. Life is whacky. So, light up (if you’re 21+), and enjoy the ride with us. This podcast is unedited, sometimes cringey, always real, and always high. You can find us on Tiktok @higherlovepod and on our individual IG accounts @samantha.not.sam and @adam_matthew_music
