The Adversity Advantage with Doug Bopst

• Relationship Expert: The Myths That Destroy Marriages & Keep You From Being Happy | Vanessa Bennett

  Today Vanessa Bennett returned to the show and we unpacked how parenthood reshapes identity and intimacy, from the weight of expectations on mothers and fathers to the quiet struggles new parents rarely name. I pressed into the difference between craving and true desire, why shared purpose matters, and the real challenges men face growing emotional intelligence. We also looked at dismantling dominator models, strengthening the relationship with self, and clearing up common myths about partnership. Bottom line, self-awareness and open communication are the backbone of healthy, connected relationships. Vanessa Bennett, LMFT, licensed depth therapist, and author of the new book, The Motherhood Myth: A Depth Therapist’s Guide to Redefine Parenting, Reimagine Intimacy, and Reclaim the Self.
