What’s the one sound you’ll never forget?

In this episode, we explore the song (and the unexpected everyday noises) that cracked something open inside us. From the first notes of a childhood lullaby to the background hum that feels like home, sound has the power to bypass words and speak directly to the body.

We share the memories tied to these vibrations, the emotions they evoke, and why they still resonate within us today.

And to close, Gabe offers a 30-minute original soundscape—designed to carry you deeper into the episode's themes.

Come for the music, stay for the stories—and maybe remember the sound that shaped you too.

Conflict isn’t the opposite of love—it’s the practice of it.

It’s not the big blowups that wear down intimacy—it’s the tiny paper cuts. The sharp tone. The missed text. The “we’re fine” energy when… we’re not.

In this episode, we unpack the secret life of micro-ruptures—those everyday disconnects that quietly shape relationships. We talk about why they matter so much to the nervous system, why repair is less about “fixing” and more about reconnecting, and how intimacy actually deepens when we choose to return to each other.

Expect stories, laughter, awkward examples, and practical tools—like repair phrases and embodied gestures—you can try in your own relationships.

Because intimacy isn’t about never drifting apart. It’s about the art (and sometimes the comedy) of coming back together.

What if slowing down wasn’t lazy, but a strategy?

In this episode, we explore how to step off the hamster wheel without losing momentum (spoiler: you might actually gain some).

We talk about: Rest as a radical act Why “doing nothing” is sometimes the most productive thing The myth that more hours = more results And yes… why our nervous systems don’t run on spreadsheets (sorry, Spreadsheet Girl)

You’re not a machine. You’re a human being with limits, rhythms, and—if you’re lucky—a few dance breaks.
