Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - Is it possible to go through life, the whole thing, single?

You asked Coach Allana Pratt, “Is it possible to go through life, the whole thing, single? I put immense pressure on myself worrying that I could.” In a survey I did of over 100 of my male and female clients, this was the #1 fear, so go through life and ultimately be alone. The worse case scenario of this was deep depression, self loathing, disconnection for Source, total despair of never being known to the core, lovingly, by another. Now love, while it’s the most common fear of my clients, putting immense pressure and worry upon yourself is not the #1 solution! xoxo In fact, pressure on the self is a form of judgment… beating yourself up on some level that you haven’t found someone, which lowers your self esteem and your vibration of love to attract that someone in the first place. The solution to that is to be tender, kind, patience and loving with yourself… soothe that part of you that’s scared, and give that part of you the connection it yearns for… while taking that part of you

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - Is it ever ok for a couple to agree to a “hall pass”?

I believe there’s nothing wrong whatsoever with a couple agreeing to a hall pass, yet if it’s not done consciously with rules, understanding, mutual consent and what if strategies, that you can destroy your relationship beyond repair. While I”m never interviewed him (and this reminds me to invite him on Intimate Conversations LIVE) I’ve heard of a man named Reid Mihalko who speaks on polyamory. I would research him and see what advice he gives. I understand he gives workshops on the topic. In fact last week on Intimate Conversations LIVE, Mai Vu had a fascinating story about what it’s like to have married the only man she’d ever slept with, and at 40 she had a sexual awakening. It’s a fascinating story so be sure to listen to that. (http://ift.tt/1gVQZiD) And lastly, I would ask you to inquire into the reason beneath the reason that you want to have sex outside the marriage. It could be indeed that you’ve never had sex with anyone else on the planet. It could be that your partner an

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - How long should a ‘friends with benefits’ relationship last?

Should there be an expiration date to friends with benefits? Well that depends not on the friends with benefits, that depends on what you want. The guideline I follow is whether it’s honoring and expansive for both people. Some people just aren’t at a time in their life where they want a long term monogamous relationship. They are focused on work for example and enjoy hooking up with someone they know will be a great experience yet have no intention of taking it more seriously than that. I have no problem with that so long as both people are honest about the deal, about sexual safety etc. However if what you really want is a long term relationship and you’re just doing friends with benefits to tie you over until you meet someone… have you communicated that? Are both people honored by being on the same page? Is it clear that when someone else moves on that the benefits will end? Is someone really hoping friends with benefits turns into exclusive dating with this person one day? Assum

Bethany Wilson - Allana Gets Real with Deb Owen

I love to get intimate. I love authentic conversations. I love someone who can go eye to eye with me as a listener… truly listening, not just waiting for me to stop talking to ask another question, oblivious to what I just said. Deb is a GREAT communicator. She asked questions that made me come alive. She knew the dance of listening and talking, sharing her journey and inviting me go deeper and deeper based on the space she could hold. You KNOW the power is in the listener, not the talker, right? You might think it’s the other way around… yet has anyone that dominated the conversation made you feel seen, heard, validated, honored? Nope. They just lost your respect. Thus you won. You’re not going to give in, you’re not going to be generous let alone cooperate. They arent honoring you so why should you honor or trust them, right? Yet when someone listens, responds to what you just said, gives time to pause, reflect, share what contributes to the conversation not what side tracks it… d
