Summary

Jillian Turecki is a relationship expert, New York Times bestselling author of It Begins With You, and host of the podcast Jillian on Love. This conversation explores why intimacy reveals our character defects, how childhood conditioning sabotages adult love, and the universal fear driving relationship dysfunction. We discuss why there's no cruise control in partnerships, why stress kills more relationships than infidelity, and how to distinguish needs from unrealistic expectations. Along the way, Jillian performs a bit of relationship triage on me. Jillian's message is direct and empowering. This one rules. Enjoy!

And it wasn't really until I hit my mid-50s that I finally kind of woke up and started taking care of my body's largest organ for the first time, which began with Bon Charge and their amazing award-winning red light face mask.
0:24.1	The science here is pretty fascinating.
0:25.6	It's equipped with optimal wavelengths of red light at 630 nanometers and near-infrared at 850 nanometers
0:35.4	that work at the cellular level to help promote youthful, glowing skin,
0:40.3	smoother skin texture, and more even-looking skin. And the best part, the red light face mask

0:53.3	all skin types, and backed by a one-year

1:36.0	computers with creativity and intention as a tool to build something meaningful, whether that's
1:42.9	a coaching practice, for example, a store
1:45.8	or a portfolio for your photography. What you need and deserve is a high quality, highly
1:52.4	designed platform that reflects your personality without compromising functionality.
1:58.7	And now, Squarespace is even more powerful, courtesy of something they call
2:02.9	Blueprint AI, which asks you to answer a few questions about your goals and your style. And then
2:10.1	it generates this completely custom website that looks professionally crafted without any tech
