Summary

Today’s discussion includes topics of a sexual nature. If this content isn’t suitable for you or if you’re listening in a shared space, please take caution and care while listening. Hey, Heal Squad! Today’s episode is about to get educationally hot and steamy. We’re thrilled to welcome back Dr. Laura Berman, a New York Times best-selling author, podcast host, and relationship expert who’s spent 30 years helping people master love, intimacy, and connection—mind, body, and soul. And trust us, Maria is going there with all the juicy questions on sex, love, and relationships! Dr. Laura’s new book Sex Magic reveals so much more too, but here she’s telling us how to use sexual energy to manifest your dream life (yes, really!), why porn and social media (aka a high school reunion on steroids) may be hurting your love life, and the shocking reason serial cheaters keep cheating. Hint, Hint: it’s not about sex! Plus the big debate: Is monogamy still realistic? Dr. Laura’s take may surprise you. If you’re looking for real, no-BS relationship advice, this episode is an absolute must-listen! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS: Sex & Manifestation - Manifesting during sex works because it’s an intense energetic exchange that can be harnessed to create desired emotional states. Infidelity & Social Media –Infidelity is often driven more by emotional disconnection, validation, and opportunity rather than just physical attraction. Social media has amplified temptation by making past connections more accessible. Passion Fades, But Connection Can Evolve – Long-term relationships transition from intense passion to deeper attachment. Many people seek external excitement (like porn or affairs) when they don’t nurture intimacy within their relationship.
