Esther Perel
About this listen
[Contains mature themes] What began as an eight-year affair between two women has stretched into a 19-year partnership. But despite their private commitment to one another, they’ve never quite managed to move beyond the shame of their origin story. Esther takes a novel approach to revealing a long-held secret.

Story
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.

Story
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.

Story
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.

One for almost every couple!
Two to three amazing insights left me with that "aha" feeling strong enough to inspire me to infuse it with my current self and relationships. In this episode Esther identifies and describes how resentment and shame about how a relationship started can be projected into how you feel and treat your partner, overshadowing the appreciation and love. She discusses how hiding the obvious creates a space of silence, preventing those around you from connecting due to their fear of discomforting you with conversation that could lead into your discomfort zone. She also discusses how a parent/child relationship between two adults will kill intimacy and she points out the dynamics of how one can trigger the other into the role that can lead into a constant back and forth reaction.

Good but far less relatable
Usually there's something in "Where Should We Begin" that I can relate to. There are a lot of flaws, insecurities, and repressions that ring some part of my neurotic brain. Of all my problems that need work, nothing in this one resonated with me. It sounds like a lovely couple and I'm glad they're getting the help they need, especially the one who originally left her husband and who clearly needs more guidance. This episode just wasn't as valuable to me personally.
