Romantic relationships are all over media--in movies, romance novels, kids' fairytales, and even in reality shows like the Bachelor or Love Island. But one thing that all of these depictions have in common is that they only show the process of falling in love. But what happens after we fall in love? What turns infatuation into love? What turns a summer fling into a lifelong partnership?
Join our host, Sophia, on her journey of pursuing answers to these questions as she interviews people who might have some interesting answers to share! Instagram: letstalkaboutlovepod
An Apple Crumble-Fueled, Cliffhanging Extravaganza: A Case Study on Infidelity
Hi listeners! I am back from my application-hibernation. It's been a wild two months. I apologize dearly for my absence, but boy am I happy to be back! On this week's episode, I am in rare form: I'm actually *mad* about something! In particular, Leah is back on the pod to discuss a case of infidelity that was recently experienced by a friend of mine. All identities are hidden, and I just ask that you respect their privacy beyond what I consensually share on the podcast. We also get into the role that spirituality and religion play in marriage, particularly from a Catholic perspective. Thanks for listening, and as always, if you have any thoughts, questions, or concerns, shoot us a DM or an email! XX

E10: The Highly Sensitive Person and PTSD
Hi lovely listeners! In today's (long over-due) episode, we talk all about the temperament trait of Sensory Processing Sensitivity and what it means to be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP, for short). In addition, we discuss the scientific evidence that exists about whether HSPs might be more vulnerable to experiencing symptoms of PTSD. If you are interested in reading more about the relationship between SPS and trauma, here is the link to my undergraduate thesis: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Wg8M2nQPTlRm957Nwy8u-jzi5_y9QzBN/view?usp=sharing
Here is the link to Elaine Aron's Highly Sensitive Person website: https://hsperson.com/
Link to the HSP Scale Test: https://hsperson.com/test/highly-sensitive-test/
Info about Highly Sensitive Children: https://hsperson.com/books/the-highly-sensitive-child/
And finally, a fantastic book relevant for this podcast is The Highly Sensitive Person In Love by Elaine Aron, PhD., which talks all about experiences and coping skills in relationships that might be unique to HSPs . She also wrote The Highly Sensitive Person: How to Thrive When the World Overwhelms You, which is also a great read. Happy listening!

E8: Classic Non-conformists, Ammirite?
In this episode, we continue our interview with Leah that we started in E7. Make sure you go back and listen to it if you haven't already! Leah continues her story about her relationships up to the present, and we talk about some loaded stuff: Whether you have to small-talk in order to start a relationship, how unconscious patterns can play out in our relationships, and about how gender and sexuality are a lot more complex and fluid than society at present allows. Listen in for all the juicy deets!

E1: The Spaghetti That Stuck and Why
Why did I start a podcast about relationships, you might ask? Well, I've had a lot of interesting relationship experiences, and I think they explain a lot about why I started this podcast in the first place. So in this episode, I do just that: I fill you guys in on my own past relationships and how they have shaped my worldview. I hope you enjoy!
