Ep 152: The Ground of Love with John Prendergast

Ep 152: The Ground of Love with John Prendergast

by Zach Beach | May 25, 2025 | Podcast Episodes, Posts for Everyone, Spirituality, Unconditional Love

Love is an essential quality of our true nature. It is always here in the depths of our heart, awaiting our conscious recognition. The more we attune with it consciously, the more it radiates out spontaenously. And the more we live our life from the heart, the...

Ep 149: Radical Self-Care with Shelly Tygielski

by Zach Beach | Jan 19, 2025 | Mindfulness, Podcast Episodes, Posts for Everyone, Self-Love, Skills for Love

For me, self-care is communal care. It means reaching out to others for support and supporting others. A mantra that steers my life is “tend to the area of the garden you can reach.” If we only did that, if we only made sure that the people within our...

by Zach Beach | Nov 3, 2024 | Podcast Episodes, Posts for Everyone, Spirituality, Unconditional Love

Ep 147: Reconciling the Desire and the Domestic With Sharon Costanzo

Ep 147: Reconciling the Desire and the Domestic With Sharon Costanzo

by Zach Beach | Oct 13, 2024 | Communication, Female Empowerment, Marriage, Podcast Episodes, Posts for Everyone, Skills for Love

One thing that is important to recognize from the outset is that there is an inherent unfairness in relationships. I divide it into two types, the first is that we are imperfect human beings and there will be differences that cause friction in the relationship. And...
Ep 146: Living Apart Together with Vicki Larson

Ep 146: Living Apart Together with Vicki Larson

by Zach Beach | Sep 29, 2024 | Boundaries, Marriage, Podcast Episodes, Posts for Everyone, Skills for Love

We shouldn’t turn a romantic decision into an economic one. We should move in with someone if we love them and want to live with them, not because it saves us money. –  Vicki Larson What are some different ways couples can Live Apart Together? What...

Ep 145: Living a Vibrant Life after Sexual Trauma with Charna Cassell

by Zach Beach | Sep 15, 2024 | Healing, Podcast Episodes, Self-Love, Sex, Trauma

It’s really important to have patience. Everyone has a different starting place. The first step is to accept what has happened and where we are starting from. Then we must understand that healing is a cyclical process. You can feel super healed, but then notice...

Ep 144: Betrayal and Forgiveness with Bruce Chalmer

by Zach Beach | Sep 1, 2024 | Cheating and Betrayal, Forgiveness, Podcast Episodes, Posts for Everyone, Skills for Love

Unfortunately, betrayal is going to happen in every relationship. No matter how many rules you come up with, you can’t come up with a perfect set of rules that will work for every situation that will come up. Life is unpredictable, including our own reactions to...

Ep 143: Loving Without Losing Your Mind with Todd Baratz

by Zach Beach | Aug 18, 2024 | Mental Health, Podcast Episodes, Posts for Everyone, Self-Love, Skills for Love

We would be better served to think of finding a patner who is a team player, someone we can share a life with. Not someone who is going to solve our existential problems of what it means to be alive, not someone who is going to bring perfection and bliss into our...
