[Podcast Ep. 1] Up in your partner's business
Hello Everyone!
I DID IT!! I made a Podcast! I am amazed that this has finally happened!! I have always had SO MUCH to say about ALL THE THINGS!! Especially the things about relationships and intimacy.
Sound quality is sub-par as of now, but content is strong!!!
Introducing:
'The things that come between us with Charu Morgan”
Here is what I have to say about it...
Relating. We are social creatures and we need connection, intimacy and touch. In late stage capitalism we are more lost than ever in how to prioritize and meet those needs. Most of us have no valuable and effective tools for connection, communication or true self-awareness.
This podcast is about all of the things that come between US and the intimacy we crave. Everything from being able to give and receive deep care within our friendships, our romantic relationships and sex life.
So please get excited with meeeeee!!!! Thank you to everyone who has been so so supportive of me in this process. I am buoyed by so many amazing and caring women behind the scenes and I am forever grateful!

Summary of episode
Charu Morgan, discusses her work in Neo Tantra and supporting people in relationships, intimacy, and sexual exploration.
She highlights the challenge of defining intimacy and relationships, emphasizing the tendency to try to change partners' behaviors to improve relationships, which can lead to defensiveness and a lack of intimacy in relationships. She emphasizes the importance of focusing on one's own feelings and experiences rather than trying to control the other person - by shifting the focus inward, there is a possibility for intimacy to flourish once again.
Charu discusses the importance of pulling back our energy from trying to change others and focusing on understanding our own feelings in relationships. She emphasizes the need to acknowledge and address discomfort within ourselves rather than expecting others to change. Communication is highlighted as a key aspect in navigating these challenges, encouraging open and honest dialogue about personal feelings and concerns in the relationship.
She emphasizes the importance of sharing personal experiences with a partner rather than accusing them of issues. By expressing feelings of discomfort and confusion, it opens up the possibility for a more constructive conversation. It's acknowledged that one cannot control the partner's response, but vulnerability can lead to a more positive interaction. It's crucial to address personal feelings of safety and comfort in a relationship rather than focusing solely on the partner's faults or needed therapy.
Charu also discusses the difficulty of facing the truth in a relationship, expressing needs, and considering the possibility of seeking support. It emphasizes the challenge of accepting reality, understanding that one cannot change their partner, and making decisions based on recognizing the truth. She explores the complexity of navigating relationships and the importance of acknowledging one's needs and boundaries.
She emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, intimacy, and seeking support from a therapist or trusted individual to navigate relational dynamics effectively. The complexity of individual experiences requires nuanced understanding and personalized approaches for growth and connection, as well as, understanding the lack of control over a partner's interest in changing behaviors.
