In this episode, I’m excited to have a chat with Marc Bènèteau about relational Intelligence, authentic relating, circling, and Marc’s honest telling of the end to his “40-year war against himself and the world.”  He  is the author of four books covering various topics in Relational Intelligence, Emotional Communication, sexuality, and human potentials.

Learn more about Marco at his website.

Marc is a self-described “love revolutionary” and former “relational idiot” which, according to him, is not a bad qualification for the job of being a relational leader.  His recent book is a memoir titled, Broke, Single, Crazy and Old: The Redemption of a Sex and Love Addict.

I literally bumped into Marc’s first book, As Lovers Do: Sexual and Romantic Partnership as a Path of Transformation. It was fall of 2016, and I had just secured my MA in depth psychology and was accepted into the PhD program. My 24-year marriage technically had ended about six months earlier, and I got myself swept up in the most ironic love affair with a man 17 years younger. 

Marco's book gave me a framework to understand my own receptive feminine, which is not passive. To receive is a choice. Coming into deeper relationship with my unconscious, my feminine, and giving my masculine a break, led to my creative unleashing.

Enjoy our chat!
