The Newest Version of You Is the Most Authentic One | Infinite Devotion Episode 145

The first version of us you ever saw was the least authentic version of us you'll ever see. Same goes for you, if you’re doing the work and going inward in your life. Every new thing that surfaces as you shed conditioning is truer than what came before it, which means the person your partner is becoming is more real than the one they used to be.

Dawn joined me for this one, and we recorded outside by a lake in northern Wisconsin. Bugs, birds, wind, squeaky lawn chairs, all of it. Slowest, easiest conversation we've had on here in a long time.

What we get into:

Where we've been since April (Grand Canyon, Page, southern Utah, Moab, Yellowstone, the Black Hills) and why moving weekly burned me out

Why I've been pivoting away from the dominant/submissive framing, and why none of the teaching actually changes

The version of you that lives in everyone else's mind, and what happens when you stop matching it

What it means when someone else's life makes you think "how dare they"

Permission versus acceptance, and why permission can't be used as a tool to pry something out of your partner

Why intimacy and sex are not the same word

One year of adult content: what surprised us, what Dawn found in it, and what I'm still working out for myself

We'll probably do more of these outside.

If this one lands for you, take five seconds and leave a five star review on Apple or Spotify, or drop a comment on YouTube. It's the only thing I ask in return for everything we give away, and it's what puts this in front of more people.
