    “Healthy relationships are not conflict-free relationships. They are relationships that know how to repair.”  What if the biggest relationship struggles you experience today… are rooted in patterns you learned before the age of 7? In this deeply honest and eye-opening conversation, I sit down with internationally acclaimed relationship expert, bestselling author, TEDx speaker, and founder of Relearn Love, Eri Kardos, to explore the relationship skills most of us were never taught: emotional safety, conflict repair, conscious communication, nervous system awareness, intimacy, and how to stop repeating the same painful cycles in love.  We dive into:  Why couples keep having the same fightsThe hidden patterns underneath conflictHow childhood conditioning shapes adult relationshipsEmotional triggers, nervous system safety & repairWalking on eggshells in relationshipsConscious communication tools that actually workWhy your sex life reflects your communication patternsThe “sandbox vs bench” analogy for navigating triggersThe importance of proactive relationship check-insHow to create deeper intimacy without pressureThe “Love Lab” practice to transform connection & pleasureOne of my favorite parts of this episode is when Eri explains that most couples are trying to solve the problem before creating emotional safety first and how learning to repair instead of react can completely change your relationship.  We also talk about:  conscious marriage & yearly relationship renewals  how triggers show up in friendships, family, leadership & business  why healthy love is a learnable skill  and how to stop making your partner “the enemy.”  If you’ve ever:  struggled to express your truth  feared conflict  felt emotionally unsafe  repeated the same relationship patterns  walked on eggshells  wanted deeper intimacy & connection  or wondered why love can feel so hard...…this episode is going to shift something in you.

    Masturbation May: How Self-Pleasure Transforms Your Sex Life

    “The way you make love to yourself is the way you make love to others.” What if the way you’ve been experiencing pleasure… is only scratching the surface? Masturbation May is your invitation to completely rewrite the way you relate to pleasure. In this raw solo episode, I share how rushed, hidden self-pleasure patterns shape your entire sex life—and how to shift into slow, embodied, deeply fulfilling experiences that transform how you show up with lovers. Here’s the reality about masturbation: Most of us learned self-pleasure in secrecy: fast, quiet and goal-oriented. And without realizing it we bring those exact same patterns into our sex lives. In this episode, I share my personal journey: from rushing, and disconnected self-pleasure to slow, embodied, deeply fulfilling experiences and how this shift completely transformed the way I show up as a lover. This is your invitation to move beyond performance and into real pleasure. In This Episode, You’ll Learn:  Why the way you touch yourself directly impacts your sex life  How early self-pleasure patterns shape intimacy and connection  The difference between functional “masturbation” and embodied self-pleasure  How to shift from chasing orgasm to experiencing full-body pleasure  The role of breath, sound, and movement in expanding sensation  Why your entire body—not just your genitals—is a source of pleasure  How understanding your “lover type” changes your experience of intimacy  What it means to actively receive pleasure (instead of just “lying there”) Go Deeper Discover your unique pleasure style via this quiz: https://www.tryinteract.com/share/quiz/69007dca95bebc00150dc3dbExplore my offers via www.sharivandecraen.com If this episode resonated with you, I’d love to hear from you.

    The True Power of Your G******s (That No One Talks About) - with Simon Paul Sutton | #12

    What if your g******s were never just physical, but a gateway to deeper connection, aliveness, and even consciousness? In this episode, I sit down with Simon Paul Sutton to explore the true power of being comfortable with your own sexual center and the power of self pleasure. Because instead of feeling, we’ve been conditioned to perform in the bedroom. This conversation is a deep dive into what happens when you move beyond technique, beyond pressure, and start relating to your body as something alive, intelligent, and deeply powerful. I don’t just guide this conversation. I also open up about my own experiences with dating, vulnerability, and the moments where I catch myself disconnecting from my body. In This Episode, We Explore:  Why your g******s are not just physical, but an access point to deeper awareness and connection The difference between performance-based intimacy vs. embodied intimacy How conditioning and shame disconnect you from your natural pleasure response The overlooked power of softness, slowness, and subtle sensation Why many people are chasing intensity instead of true aliveness The pressure on men to perform—and how it impacts both partners  How your body communicates through sensation, energy, and presence Why real intimacy starts with honest communication and emotional safety The role of your inner patterns (inner girl/boy) in intimacy and dating "Shifting Awareness" practice starting as of 01:01:11 Personal Shares From Me In this Episode:  My own experience of dating and going into my head instead of my body The moment of realizing: “There’s attraction… but no safety” How lack of clarity creates tension and disconnection in intimacy The courage it takes to ask: “What is this actually?” My growing compassion for men and the pressure they carry to perform Why I believe true intimacy requires both safety + self-expression Key Takeaways  Your body is not a tool—it’s an intelligent system of sensation and awareness Pleasure expands when you shift from doing → feeling The real power of your g******s lies in connection, not performance Slowness and presence unlock levels of intimacy most people never reach  Communication is what allows your body to fully relax and open 🔗 Connect with Simon Paul Sutton: Follow Simon on Instagram: @simonpaulsuttonCheck out all of his Events here: https://simonpaulsutton.com/Simon's retreats and events: https://nakedsoul.life/ Let’s Stay Connected → Instagram: @shari.vandecraen → Website: www.sharivandecraen.com ⭐️ If You Loved This Episode… Please take 60 seconds to leave a 5-star rating and review.

    Most people think being a better lover means learning new positions, lasting longer, or performing better. But the truth? Epic lovemaking starts long before you’re naked. In this solo episode, Shari takes you back to a moment that changed everything — a conversation in a sun-soaked jungle cabin in Nicaragua that sparked the very idea for this podcast.  When a fellow traveler asked her, “What would you tell me if I wanted to be a better lover?” … she realized it’s not about technique. It’s about connection — with yourself, your body, and the person in front of you.

It’s about presence.  It’s about bringing your full self — body, heart, and energy — into every moment of intimacy. So if you’ve ever wondered how to become a more connected, magnetic, and unforgettable lover… this episode is your invitation to slow down, feel more, and fall back in love with your own body. --- LINKS I have 2 coaching opportunities open starting as of mid-November: send me an email with your desire to hello@sharivandecraen.com and let's see if there is a match.
