In one of the most brutally honest conversations about love, sex, and healing, Michael sits down with therapist Dr. David Helfand to unpack why modern relationships are falling apart—and how to rebuild them with hope, honesty, and emotional intelligence.

From trauma bonding and communication breakdowns to porn, politics, and the chaos of modern dating, this episode dives deep into the neuroscience of intimacy and what it really takes to create lasting connection in a disconnected world.

Discover how trauma shapes who we love, why lying can be a survival mechanism, and how vulnerability—done right—can be the doorway to real intimacy.

🎧 Listen if you’ve ever wondered:
Why you keep attracting the same kind of relationships
How to tell the truth without blowing everything up
Whether healing should come before or through love
How to find hope when connection feels impossible

Because in a world obsessed with swiping, judging, and escaping—this episode reminds us that love, when done consciously, is still the bravest thing we can do.
