TalkItOver: The only dating show that begins in bed

How soon is too soon to begin dating after a breakup?

How soon is too soon to begin dating after a breakup? Is the first person you date after a breakup, the "rebound"? What are the chances that a post-breakup partner will heal the wound but also become the ONE? Do you need to have a rebound to fix a self-confidence breach? After being hurt by your ex-relationship, is it fair to use and potentially hurt someone else? We cannot control the pain caused by a breakup, but can we learn a lot from it? Would it be better to start re-building yourself from within before re-entering the dating world? All break-ups and experiences are unique, and we are not looking for the right answers, we just talking it over in our big ole bed. Now let's pull back the sheets...

Can you fall In love with a married Man/Women?

Can you have a full-on relationship with someone who is taken? What if you fell in love with a married man/woman? Is it an open relationship when all parties know what is going on? Or is it one gate play? Are you familiar with the phrase: if you have to hide it, you know it is wrong? Are you ok to be a second priority? What happens when you are married and get engaged in a side relationship? Is it possible to keep both parties satisfied? But is having an affair on a side indicates a deeper personal problem? Let's pull back the sheets and talk it over. We have amazing guests in our Big Ole Bed.

A conversation inspired by JBJ Soul Foundation's story

We always start our episodes with a feel-good story to create unity among the guests and the right mood for the question-of-the-day conversation.

This time, the story about JBJ Soul Foundation's initiative brought up by our co-host Maya-Mae engaged everyone in a 35 min stand-alone discussion about problems of homelessness in New York and beyond.

There are 57,341 homeless people, including 18,653 children, sleeping each night in the New York City municipal shelter system. New York City has more than 111,000 homeless students. Covid has only increased the size of the issue.

It just happened that our podcast guests are not only amazing human beings but in one way or another have been involved in community initiatives related to the homeless problem. And it is all started with talking it over in our Big Ole Bed. Now let's pull back the sheets...

Sex - Lay it all on the table? Or keep it to yourself?

For the first time in the history of the TalkItOver show, we are going to talk in our big ole bed about SEX. Why so many people are afraid to talk about sex while dating? Is it a bad habit to avoid this conversation to keep the mystery? How to address sensitive issues without making a wrong impression? Does talking about sex mean that you up for it? Should you lay it all right away on the table or keep it to yourself? Can the first sex fiasco with a new partner kill the future of this relationship? Does an intimate relationship start long before intercourse? 

We are not subject matter experts, but we have a special guest, who is a professional. Jenn Infantino is in the building. She is a 2019 graduate of Layla Martin's VITA™ Coaching program, an engineer, an artist, and a Pleasure Goddess.

Rejection in Love: a loss or blessing in disguise?

There are multiple ways to break up. It appears that texting is not the worst method of all. There are Facebook, WhatsApp, Email, phone call, ask a friend-options that can be equally painful... How to end your relationship in a less harmful way? Does this way even exist? How to handle a break-up in an abusive relationship? Will the remote breakup come in handy? How to navigate your emotions and communication during pandemics? How to see the end of relationships as an opportunity and re-direction to better yourself? How to not let rejection define you but find lessons in you?
