Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,585
There's no such thing as a perfect guy, but Xavier Rush comes disastrously close. A gorgeous veterinarian giving Greek god vibes—all while cuddling a tiny kitten? Immediate yes. That is until Xavier opens his mouth and proves that even sculpted gods can say the absolute wrong thing. Like, really wrong. Of course, there’s nothing Samantha loves more than proving an asshole wrong . . . unless, of course, he can admit he made a mistake.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,113
Beth and her gentle, kind husband Frank are happily married, but their relationship relies on the past staying buried. But when Beth’s brother-in-law shoots a dog going after their sheep, Beth doesn’t realize that the gunshot will alter the course of their lives. For the dog belonged to none other than Gabriel Wolfe, the man Beth loved as a teenager—the man who broke her heart years ago. Gabriel has returned to the village with his young son Leo, a boy who reminds Beth very much of her own son, who died in a tragic accident.

Compiled by intrepid journalist Neve Pride, this archive of recordings spans the months after dragons emerged on earth, chronicling the communities that sprang up amid the destruction, the scientists, military leaders, and experts searching for a defense, and those steadfastly seeking the missing. Neve and her young daughter Bex travel among the wreckage speaking to those left behind and surviving, against all odds. Neve records everything for history, and in the hopes of locating a clue as to where the dragons came from and how one might stop them.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Needed antidote to pervasive norms on handling a depressed loved one
This is the first time I’ve heard Ms. (Dr. ?)
Perel approach family dynamics outside of one-on-one intimate relationships. In this case, it’s a couple perplexed by the onset of a serious mood disorder for their college aged daughter.
What drew me to Ms. Perel, when I first heard her on This American Life, was her ability to challenge her patients while remaining deeply and genuinely empathetic toward their suffering. As popular as the antidote:
Suffering Person: “Why me, God?”
God: “Why not?”
Is in American culture; I’ve only seen that mentality promoted by people in denial about the mechanisms of their own pain and - perhaps more relevant in a culture still so thoroughly influenced by organized Christianity’s emphasis on the selfless ideal - the pain they’re spreading to those who love and possibly depend on them.
Ms. Perel seems prepared for the fact that most of her American patients enter the room clinging at least partially to the above referenced ideal, and possesses the ability to guide these patients to a more nuanced view that appears to help them feel more compassion toward themselves and whoever else is involved.
After this first episode of Season 2, I can say that Ms. Perel appears to be able to apply her gifts to family dynamics that extend beyond the individual couple.

Beautiful work captured in a therapeutic session.
Would you consider the audio edition of Ep. 1: You Need Help to Help Her to be better than the print version?
First, the production is wonderfully done. Sound quality, pace, music interludes, narrative annotations and clients' content in the prologue. Great work! I am a clinical social worker and find this to be amazingly insightful and affirming to my work with my clients.
Who was your favorite character and why?
the french guy with his girlfriend because it shoes the power of adaptation available when the system is overwhelmed.

Esther is magic
Esther Perel's wisdom is both objective and compassionate, and it makes her a joy to listen to. Every episode of her podcast is gold when it comes to learning about how to navigate our relationships. But this one is especially ideal for parents struggling with depression in their children. Fascinating and thought-provoking whether you're a parent or not.

Parenting 101
Isolated lives, isolated families, where are there multi-generation families living in close proximity? Not in today’s society and culture. This episode talks about a family that has slip into a “negative feedback loop”. Esther Perel shows a couple how to get off the merry go round of broken family dynamics. For anyone struggling with a teenage child this is a “must listen” episode.

A voice for relationships
Though her accent is at times distracting, I find that I listen more carefully. In fact, much of what she imparts I want to SEE in text format, so I have purchased the books as well as audio editions.
I think this woman is a compassionate, reasonable, realistic voice for relationship work for our time. So many books try to, and succeed, in polarizing the sexes, ignoring same-sex unions and unmarried as demoralizing. I found her insights to be inspirational, instructive and challenging in the best way possible.
Each time I read or listen to her work I am continually astounded at my own ignorance of how to be healthy in a close relationship, sexual or nonsexual.
Well worth the listen and the read. Buy her books. You won't be disappointed if you are interested in loving and living fully.
