  • I consider agape love to be the highest form of love and I’m so excited to share this topic with you. On this show Dr. Robert Enright, PhD, and I discuss the following and more:

    What is the definition of agape love and how is it different than other forms of love, such as Eros (romantic love) or love among family? How does one practice agape love? How does agape love fit in with justice and fairness? How does agape love fit in with other virtues defined by psychology and religion?

Dr. Enright is the Aristotelian Professor in Forgiveness Science in the School of Education's Department of Educational Psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

  • Affairs, which soared during COVID, are addictive and can cause harm all around. In this episode psychologist guests Dr. Sharon Ryan Montgomery, Dr. Marcy Pasternak and Dr. Tamsen Thorpe share their expertise on the different types of affairs, how affairs impact children, the personality types of those who are more likely to have affairs, steps to take to heal from an affair and more. In my practice I find that affairs can be painful and debilitating not only for the injured party but for individuals trying to get out of one. Learn about how there are emotional affairs, virtual affairs, sexual-only affairs and fantasy affairs. Learn about the intergenerational effects of a child being alienated (cut off) from a parent in hostile, high conflict divorces. Our expert guests provide resources for how to heal after the effects of an affair.
