Emotional Safety in Relationships: Creating Intimate Dialogues with Marshall Zweig And Heather Masson (E57)

April 12, 2024

Today we are doing things a bit differently. This is a couples episode. I’m joined by my wife Ashley, and we are joined by Marshall Zweig, and Heather Masson. We have a potent conversation lined up for you as we plunge into the depths of intimacy, trauma, and the transformative power of communication.

We are going to get personal. Marshall shares his unsettling experiences with trauma and the challenge of shaking off the feeling of being a predator that past events have imposed on him. He also brings insights from his “Shit to Grit” podcast, adding a layer of emotional depth.

Heather, talks about her early traumas that skewed her understanding of relationships and led her to a state of hyper-vigilance. Yet, it is in her tale of self-discovery and unwinding the knots of her past that we find a beacon of hope.

The heart of today’s talk thrives on the idea that acceptance is the precursor to change, as we all share our insights on navigating emotional safety, transformation, and prioritizing effective communication in relationships.
