Episode 283 - Avoiding Intimacy with Kiki Grace and Jason Goode

This episode contains adult subject matter and some listeners may be triggered by this content. Listener discretion is advised.

In this episode, we take a closer look at the ways people avoid intimacy, often without even realizing it. Our guests explain why deep connection can feel uncomfortable, how past experiences shape our relationships, and what we can do to move past the fear of being truly seen.

We also talk about the patterns that keep us at a distance from others and how to start building relationships that feel more open and fulfilling. It is an eye-opening discussion about self-awareness, connection, and the barriers that keep us from experiencing intimacy in our relationships.

KIKI GRACE AND JASON GOODE

Their quizzes, courses, and coaching programs offer the tools to transform not just relationships, but the way you show up in your life.
