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

• How to break down, name, and ask for your exact desires

• - How to effectively deal with the charm AND lack of empathy of a narcissist
• - Dr. Ramani’s 3 steps to narcissistic resistance so you can break free from the abuse

If you thought Part 1 was wild, wait for this. In Part 2, we get down and dirty… religion (yep, my dad said NO to Tom), smashing gender roles, why chores start so many fights, what’s ACTUALLY happening in the bedroom after 25 years, and how we survived me going from silent-housewife to boardroom boss.

We’re talking about how we keep our marriage spicy (even when hormones go haywire), why I still make Tom’s snacks (well, sometimes), and the honest truth on resenting each other about laundry and dishes and “who does more.” If you’ve ever wondered how to totally rethink your love life, face the little annoyances, and STILL want to rip each other’s clothes off (most days) after decades, get in here.

Why I don’t resent Tom for the “chores” & the Will Smith moment

Perimenopause, hormones, and why divorce rates skyrocket

To my Ladies,

Today’s episode was such a difficult one for me, but I felt called to record it because these issues are tearing soooooo many couples and families apart, and it's time we talk about it!

This is me being really extremely vulnerable as I have a conversation with my husband about something that’s been sitting heavy for a long time.

I run a female empowerment channel. I love this show. I love you guys. I’m here to encourage women to be freaking badass. And yet… my husband voted for Trump. A man I despise! 

And when that came out publicly? The backlash was real. And I’ve been navigating our relationship, our differences, and how the hell I even talk about this… for almost a year.

So today, I’m bringing my hubby on because we’re finally having the conversation no one wants to have. The conversation people are too afraid to touch. 

I’ve had so many women come to me quietly like, “Lisa, don’t tell anyone, but…” and then it’s either their partner voted for Trump and they’re terrified of the backlash, or they voted for Trump themselves and feel like they have to stay silent.

And when that many people feel like they have to hide? Something is wrong!!! Relationships can’t thrive when you’re walking on eggshells and pretending.

So I wanted to be real. I wanted to be honest. And I wanted to show you what it looks like to love someone deeply and still have differences… politics, religion, all of it. I’m Greek Orthodox, he’s atheist. We’ve navigated this for 25 years.

It hasn’t always been easy… but it’s been doable. And here’s the key: we’ve never lost respect for each other and we’ve never abandoned ourselves!

I don’t expect everyone to “love” this episode. I get it. Everyone has their opinions.

But this isn’t about politics.

This is about how you stay connected when you don’t agree. How you actually hear your partner. How you handle different views without trying to tear each other down.

Because let me be really real, I love my husband more than anything on this planet and his political and religious beliefs hasn't and won't ever change that. 

So if you’re that person, if you want to understand your partner and navigate differences while still being incredibly happy and solid, please listen with open ears, open eyes, and an open mind.

Because if we can learn to have honest conversations with grace, love, respect and without trying to destroy each other?

Oh my God… I truly believe we can build a different world. And it all starts with being brave….

Much Love,

Lisa B

Today my girl Dr. Ramani is pulling the curtain back and exposing the mind games that narcissists play ON THE DAILY to make you doubt yourself and even question your own frikin’ sanity.

Dr. Ramani is no stranger to Women of Impact. As a licensed clinical psychologist and expert in narcissistic relationships, Dr. Ramani digs deep into the BEHAVIORAL PATTERNS that narcissists use every single day to manipulate the hell out of you and keep you sucked into the relationship. PRE-ORDER Dr. Ramani's new book here: https://a.co/d/7qYmF0f

In this episode, we’re diving into:

• Why narcissists will NEVER CHANGE, EVEN IF you leave them!
• What narcissists will do to look good in the world, so that NO ONE ELSE sees how they play on your fears and steal your sense of self.
• Why it’s SOOO easy to be in denial and accept domination, gaslighting, and indoctrination as your “new normal”.
• And why ANYONE is vulnerable to a narcissist’s mind games because you can’t always see them coming…

So whether you’re in a romantic relationship with a narcissist, or maybe you suspect a family member or friend is, this episode is here to help you spot the toxic behavior patterns so you can heal from the abuse and put the pieces back together.

When you’ve been hurt by someone you trusted, it feels impossible that you’ll ever let go of the pain and shame around what happened and be able to stand in your power again. The truth is that though you feel like a victim, and you feel taken advantage of, or like you’re completely broken, it is possible to move past this situation and open yourself to love and safety without fear.

Najwa Zebian has joined us on Women of Impact multiple times and each time she’s been able to put words to the pain that has blindsided many women and offer a new perspective through which we can move out of survival mode and truly start healing. 

She’s the bestselling author of Welcome Home, Mind Platter, Sparks of Phoenix and so much more. As a woman she’s experienced the difficulties of life, going against culture, and being open and vulnerable with the wrong people. 

In this episode, Najwa and Lisa are bringing you a fresh look at setting boundaries. It’s not about keeping people out or giving other people a set of rules to follow, it’s about your personal value and how you see your self-worth. Being a people pleasing woman may have landed you in painful situations, but you can make peace with that version of you and ask yourself the one question that will bring you to tears, healing, and freedom.

You know those moments when your gut screams “he’s lying, ”but everyone else believes him? We break down the exact body language, tactics, and psychological games toxic men use to dodge accountability, gaslight victims, and control the narrative.

You know those moments when your gut is SCREAMING that something’s off, but everyone else just shrugs it off like, “You’re overreacting”? Homie, this is the episode that finally puts a spotlight on why your intuition is your biggest superpower, especially when the whole world tries to gaslight you out of it.

Today, we’re diving DEEP into the body language, verbal gymnastics, and high-stakes manipulation behind one of the most infamous cases of our time. We’re breaking down Ghislaine Maxwell: Reading her cues, calling out the lies, and exposing the hidden “tells” that every survivor and truth-seeker NEEDS to spot. From depositions to prison interviews, and the voices of survivors, we don’t just talk about red flags, we put them under a microscope for you.

Here’s exactly what we dive into:

• The #1 body language signal that screams deception (and what “effort” really means)
• Why narcissists act like the victim, even when they’re on trial
• How to reframe victim memories (and why “I don’t recall” is such a calculated phrase)
• The psychology behind grooming and how powerful people protect each other

You know those moments when you KNOW you’re self-sabotaging, you feel the same triggers come up in every relationship, or you second-guess if you’re “too much” or “not enough”… but you can’t figure out WHY? Girl, you are not alone.

Today we are diving into the juicy, sometimes messy, but always REAL world of attachment styles… with none other than the legend herself, Thais Gibson, queen of making neuroscience and relationships make SENSE.

I’m coming for every anxious thought, every “do I text him back or run for the hills?” crisis, and all things Girl Gang growth. Plus, Thais is giving you the science and practical quiz to decode your attachment style, as we do it together, live and in real time.

No therapy jargon here. We talk:

• Real-life family drama (We get deep on the Brooklyn Beckham controversy)

• What to do when YOU’RE the one with the avoidant, anxious, or even fearful avoidant traits (spoiler: you can change, homie)

• The messy process of setting boundaries (and accidentally overreacting, then feeling guilty #beenthere)

• The difference between a dismissive avoidant and a narcissist (it’s not the same and we break it DOWN)

• Why you keep attracting the same toxic relationships (and what to actually do about it, step by step)

• How to rewire your attachment style… even if it feels impossible after years of baggage and bear-in-the-woods-level triggers (if you know, you know)

If you want to finally understand yourself, your partners, and stop the self-sabotage spiral, this episode is your roadmap. Say goodbye to drama and hello to high-value relationships and self-love.

Ready for the real talk? In part two, Dr. Spirit and Lisa Bilyeu get even deeper, unpacking the emotional rollercoaster of love, boundaries, and all those “why does he DO that?!” questions you’ve probably vented about to your girlfriends.

With juicy listener questions, viral video clips, and laugh-out-loud moments, Spirit dishes on how to spot performative affection vs. the real deal, why relationships fall apart when you stop trying, and why it’s totally OK to expect (and get!) more from love.

In this gripping episode of Women of Impact, I want you to think about how much your own words or insecurities, pains and traumas have been used against you to keep you under control.

Today, I’m joining forces with psychologist Mariel Buque to tackle the topic of manipulation head-on. Mariel, who went through a two-year grieving process after escaping a toxic relationship herself, shares her insights on shutting down toxic people. From recognizing the signs of manipulation to standing up for yourself without losing control, Mariel doubles down on the kind of advice that can help you finally break these toxic cycles. 

“We may never actually get any kind of ‘I’m sorry’, any kind of validation for our experiences, and so what we need to do is move on and find ourselves yet again.” -Mariel Buque

It’s easy to tell our friends about why the person you're with isn’t making the cut. Your partner has annoying habits, the sex isn’t that great, it’s not as good as it was when you first hooked up, or they stopped doing the things that grabbed your attention at the beginning. 

Of all the reasons we can chat over a bottle (or two) of wine about explaining why our relationship isn’t working out, rarely do we reflect on ourselves and how we showed up in that relationship.

Stephan Speaks has been helping women (and men) have more fulfilling relationships with the kind of advice that cuts straight through the B.S. and gets right to the heart of the matter. The 100+ million views on his YouTube channel speaks for itself. 

How do you avoid another bad relationship? How do you choose the best partner for you and invest your time wisely to find the right partner for you?

Lisa is digging in and asking all the questions we think about and Stephan is delivering on the hard truths we don’t want to hear, but we need to hear if we’re serious about having a loving, long-term, healthy relationship.

You deserve to thrive in your relationship and that means bringing all of you and the best of you to the table with your partner. Some the hard issues

Original air date: 2-8-23

Stephan and Lisa are hitting on include:

• Why relationship tricks and hacks don’t build meaningful relationships
• Great sex alone is never a valid reason to stay with anyone
• Exposing the lies and B.S. we’ve been told are the “norm” for relationships

It’s time to stop compromising and setting yourself up for heartache and start making better decisions to find and create the relationship of your dreams.

We're about to turn up the heat and talk about something that might make you blush—sex and success! Bet you didn't think those two could be linked, huh? Well, buckle up.

In the first part of today’s two-part convo, we're revealing the secret superpowers of your menstrual cycle. From "Power UP Phases" to the 'Hormone Crash’ that will have you thinking you may have been gaslighting yourself all these years, this conversation is a real game changer, and we're spilling all the details. And get this, even your work schedule can inspire some serious bedroom magic and uphill success in your career and relationships. Yup, you heard me right. Your 9-5 can lead to a 10 in the bedroom (and life).

We'll also explore why women are twice as likely to find sex boring and how we can shift this narrative.

You know those moments when something feels off, but you can’t tell if it’s danger… discomfort… or just two strong personalities clashing?

This episode goes straight into one of the most controversial conversations happening right now… and instead of reacting emotionally, we slow it down and analyze the actual behavior.

Former CIA intelligence officer Andrew Bustamante joins me to break down behind-the-scenes footage involving Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, examining body language, power dynamics, control, discomfort, and competition, frame by frame.

This is not about picking sides.

It’s about learning how to see clearly, protect yourself, and understand what’s really happening when emotions, power, and perception collide.

Because as women, the goal is never blind loyalty or blind skepticism.

The goal is clarity.

Here’s exactly what we dive into:

• How to spot the difference between control, competition, and discomfort
  

• Why discomfort doesn’t always mean powerlessness
  

• The subtle body-language cues that reveal who’s actually leading the dynamic
  

• How women sometimes use control as a way to feel safe
  

• Why two people can both be telling the truth and still be in conflict
  

• What this case teaches us about perception, power, and boundaries in real life

This is a fan fav episode. What up homies! Lisa Bilyeu here. If you’ve ever wondered if his romantic gestures were just a ploy to trap you, this conversation with Terri Cole is just what you need.

In today’s powerful two-part episode of Women of Impact with the insightful Terri Cole, we expose the love bombers and boundary manipulators for what they are. Their tactics of 'unearned intimacy' have not earned your time, your attention or love.

As we dive into how they manipulate emotions, paint B.S. visions of a future together you really want to hear just to gain control, I hope you’re taking notes. It's time to have your own back and demand truth in action. Remember, manipulation isn't about love, it's about power. Let's arm ourselves with knowledge and kick these red flags to the curb. 

“Our job is to have our own back. Our job is to go, ‘I can count on me to not people-please myself out of my own integrity.’” -Terri Cole
