  Jul 22, 202659 min

  Okay ladies, this one’s for YOU. Ever secretly wondered if your wildest desires, romantic daydreams, or untamed fantasies are “normal”? Or maybe you crave more passion, more play, and more pleasure, but aren’t sure how to even start that conversation? Enter the powerhouse Caitlin V: sex therapist, intimacy coach, and the straight-talking woman who's helped thousands of women discover exactly what THEY want in bed. In Part 1, we’re going behind the scenes of female fantasy: unpacking Twilight, Fifty Shades, why yearning to be desired is at the heart of so much, and how to finally own your erotic power without shame. Caitlin V breaks it all down: why scheduling sex is actually hot (and necessary!), how to safely explore archetypes and kink, and why women’s pleasure is far more creative and expansive than you’ve ever been told. If you’re done hiding, done playing small, and SO ready to claim the sex and intimacy you deserve, start here. SHOWNOTES Why feeling desired is at the core of women's fantasies Scheduling sex vs. spontaneity Breaking down archetypes: Vampires, dominance, surrender Twilight & the erotic pull of restraint and safety Taboo, kink, and why your fantasy is more normal (and healing) than you think Safely claiming sub/dom play and power dynamics Erotic Blueprints: What actually turns women on How to break down, name, and ask for your exact desires Exploring the edges: consent, taboo, and reclaiming shame as pleasure Fantasies about threesomes and queerness: Normalizing what women want The animal, the goddess, and every archetype a woman can be Thank you to our sponsors: Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial period at https://shopify.com/lisa OneSkin : 15% off with code LISA at https://oneskin.co/lisa Follow Caitlin V: Website: https://caitlinvneal.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/caitlinvictoriousx   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CaitlinV FOLLOW LISA BILYEU: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisabilyeu/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/womenofimpact Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lisa_bilyeu?lang=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisabilyeu See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .

  "18 Years Studying Heartbreak" How to Spot a Dangerous Man & STILL Stay Open to Love | Matt Hussey PT 2

  Jul 16, 202656 min

  You know when heartbreak feels like it’s not just the loss of a person, but a total betrayal by LIFE itself? When every friend’s “just get over it” sounds like an insult, and you’re sick of pretending you’re OK? Well homie, then this is your episode. And Matthew Hussey is here to guide you through not just surviving, but actually thriving after heartbreak. In this juicy second half, we get real about what keeps women from healing (spoiler: it’s about WHO you let headline your life). Matthew breaks down the four main types of heartbreak, how to make sure you’re ACTUALLY mending (not just spinning), and the signs you’re finally ready for real, healthy love. Plus, how to spot the real green flags in men so you never waste precious years on toxic cycles again. SHOWNOTES Stop blaming yourself: time wasn’t wasted, and anger is your friend Why the pain threshold is often what finally sets you free (and why amnesia is your enemy) The hidden addiction to heartbreak, and why it keeps you “safe” but small Hyper-vigilance, wounds, and breaking the generational cycle Your pain serves a purpose, but does it deserve to be the headline of your next 20 years? Don’t let pain write your life: How to separate emotion from the story you attach to it Matthew’s “Five Days to Mend”, where to go now if you’re stuck in the darkness The four green flags: consistency, feeling accepted, meeting you where you are, and surviving the hard stuff Rapid fire game: Masculinity, femininity, and finding the person who will actually cherish ALL of you Thank you to our sponsors: Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial period at https://shopify.com/lisa OneSkin : 15% off with code LISA at https://oneskin.co/lisa Monarch: 50% off your first year with code WOI https://monarch.com Follow Matthew Hussey: Website: https://www.matthewhussey.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thematthewhussey/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thematthewhussey   Join his free Five Days to Mend heartbreak event: https://www.mendweek.com FOLLOW LISA BILYEU: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisabilyeu/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/womenofimpact TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lisa_bilyeu?lang=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisabilyeu See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .

  "18 Years Studying Heartbreak" How to Spot a Dangerous Man & STILL Stay Open to Love | Matt Hussey PT 1

  Jul 15, 202652 min

  Ever feel like love is just one giant, nerve-wracking gamble? Like the people who are supposed to love you the most end up hurting you beyond belief, and you’re left questioning your own reality? Trust me, you are not alone. In this raw and must-listen episode of Women of Impact, I sit down with Matthew Hussey, relationship coach, New York Times bestselling author, and the straight-talking Brit who has helped millions of women get real about love, self-worth, and healing after trauma. Matthew and I are diving deep into the sneaky world of coercive control, manipulation, and narcissistic relationships. We’re uncovering why nearly half of women find themselves with controlling partners, what keeps so many of us stuck in toxic cycles, and the miracle of breaking free. Learn the actual steps to stay guarded enough to protect your heart, but open enough to receive real love again. I demand honesty on this show, and you’re about to get it. SHOWNOTES The case for slowing down: why we lose objectivity in love Advancing in love like a boxer: how to protect yourself without closing off The context clues you must look for: how do they handle stress, family, friendships, conflict, and YOU when you’re sick? The science: up to 63.3% of women with abuse will develop PTSD, and why psychological wounds are the slowest to heal The cult of two: Why leaving is a miracle, not a failure Why so many women opt out of dating, and the real risks of closing your heart for good The story of Gisele Pellicault, and how finding love again after unimaginable trauma is still possible Self-love after heartbreak: can the next chapter be the best one? Why going no contact with parents or partners is sometimes the only way (you are NOT a snowflake for protecting your peace).  The four types of heartbreak: why you can feel grief for someone you never even dated Thank you to our sponsors: Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial period at https://shopify.com/lisa OneSkin : 15% off with code LISA at https://oneskin.co/lisa Monarch: 50% off your first year with code WOI https://monarch.com Follow Matthew Hussey: Website: https://www.matthewhussey.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thematthewhussey/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thematthewhussey   Join his free Five Days to Mend heartbreak event: https://www.mendweek.com FOLLOW LISA BILYEU: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisabilyeu/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/womenofimpact TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lisa_bilyeu?lang=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisabilyeu See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .
