Shame and Healing in Sex Addiction with Austin Hatch
Austin Hatch is a certified sex addiction therapist and founder of Phase Your Recovery. In this episode, he and Brittani talk about the difference between honesty and transparency, how shame gets weaponized in relationships, and why community — not just insight — is often the missing piece in real change. Topics Covered: Why most clients arrive in the middle of a self-made crisis The "hidden language of addiction": minimization, rationalization, justification Honesty as an offering vs. transparency as a bid for control "Sad puppy energy" and how shame gets weaponized in relationships Why Austin pushes back on the addiction label as an identity Requiring partners into the work within the first three sessions Reframing needs vs. desires around sex and intimacy Building Unmasking Shame, a 12-month experiential couples group Male vulnerability, culture, and what genuine emotional honesty looks like Connect with Austin: https://phasezerorecovery.com/about-us YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZnrCJ-7WtX9NTIOu8d2gNA Brittani's Resources Website: https://www.brittaniprocknow.com/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/brittani_procknow Intimacy Workbook: https://howtorelate.kit.com/b956780219 Newsletter: https://howtorelate.kit.com/e9f87bb2dc Support the show and drink coffee!

The Past and Future of Sex with Dr. Marianne Brandon
Sex therapist and psychologist Dr. Marianne Brandon is here to energize the conversation about sex. Marianne shares what she discovered after years of working with highly educated, sexually confident women who still struggled with low libido — and why the standard interventions weren't working. The conversation gets into evolutionary biology, the "10 seeds" framework for understanding desire differences, what it actually takes for women to let go in the bedroom, and what AI and VR porn mean for the future of human intimacy. In this episode: How Marianne fell into sex therapy — and kept it a secret for years Why giving women "permission" isn't enough to solve low libido The seed analogy: understanding desire differences through an evolutionary lens Why caretaking kills desire (and what to do about it) Practical exercises for women learning to open their bodies and men reclaiming their power VR porn, oxytocin, and why therapists need to be paying attention Romantasy, AI intimacy, and the growing turn away from real humans Guest Resources: Podcast: The Sex Doctors Website: drbrandon.net Psychology Today blog: The Future of Intimacy Brittani's Resources Website: https://www.brittaniprocknow.com/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/brittani_procknow Intimacy Workbook: https://howtorelate.kit.com/b956780219 Newsletter: https://howtorelate.kit.com/e9f87bb2dc ☕ Support the show and drink coffee!

Why Connection Beats Algorithms: A genuine conversation with startup founder Devyn Lowry
Devyn Lowry joins Brittani to talk about life as a startup founder, why empathy is a non-negotiable skill in tech, and the broken systems that led him to build Ocean Labs — a mental health platform designed to actually match people with the right therapist. Topics Covered: What it's really like working in startups (spoiler: a lot of hats) Why empathy belongs on every team, not just in design The research-backed reason therapeutic fit drives outcomes How current therapist matching platforms are just glorified database filters The ethics of VC funding in mental health tech AI, human connection, and why we need to get back to building things that matter Connect with Devyn: LinkedIn: Devyn Lowry Website: https://www.tryocean.io/ Email: devyn@tryocean.io Resources Mentioned: Ocean Labs beta launch: June 25th Therapists: reach out directly to join the network Prospective clients: early intake sign-ups opening soon Website: https://www.brittaniprocknow.com/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/brittani_procknow Intimacy Workbook: https://howtorelate.kit.com/b956780219 Newsletter: https://howtorelate.kit.com/e9f87bb2dc Support the show and drink coffee!
