Welcome to Episode Number 54!
The intersection of romance and brutal honesty is our topic today.
We all sell our partners on ourselves, when we first meet - it’s part of how we seduce one another and fall in love. There’s nothing wrong with that. That said, it’s also possible to withhold too much about ourselves in that stage. As we’ve seen so many times on this show, healthy relationships require complete and direct communication.
Our guests today, Matthew and Sophie-Charlotte, are a fascinating balance of these two ways stages of love. One is the undying romantic optimist; the other is an unrepentantly honest realist. And the fascinating way in which their relationship comes together is the theme of our show.
If you would like to learn more about Matthew (he can teach you how to race motorcycles), you can find his website at www.speedgrins.com.
Sophie-Charlotte is the author of the bestselling book: Mobilized - The Formula For Mobile Success, and you can learn more about her at www.scmoatti.com.
In other news, I’m excited to announce that we’ve been asked to create a pilot radio program based on our podcast. I can’t disclose the details yet, but I can tell you that it’s going to involve a listener call-in segment. We’re looking for questions from listeners about relationships. So if you have a question or you’d like some advice about your relationship, give us a call and leave a message at (415) 483-5112. We might be able to include you in our pilot!
Special thanks to Shure Microphones for donating their brand new MV-51 model that’s specially made for podcasters. We used it to record our intro and outro today, so if you like the sound, you know where to find it.

053 - A Backyard BBQ? Really? Rachel & Greg
Welcome to Episode 53!
We all hold an ideal vision of our future selves, romantic or otherwise. By definition, the ideal is never the reality. Our interview today is about coming to terms with what we really want, as expressed by what we actually create for ourselves. Our couple, Rachel and Greg, have a life they love, and one Rachel at least never would have planned in her twenties. But it’s perfect; I’ll let them tell you the details.
