#81 - WHEEL OF CONSENT - Dr. Betty Martin on Fulfilling Relationships: Respecting Our Own and Others' Needs and Desires

Do you struggle with communicating your needs and boundaries in
relationships? Do you want to create more conscious relationships
and deeper connections with your loved ones? Have you ever felt
unsure about what true consent looks like?


In this episode, Nora talks with Dr. Betty Martin. Dr. Betty
Martin is the creator of the groundbreaking concept "the Wheel of
Consent." Dr. Martin's work has been fundamental in reshaping our
understanding of consent, intimacy, and boundaries. It offers
important insights into why so many people often feel unsatisfied
in their relationships and what we can do to create more
fulfilling interactions while respecting our own needs and
boundaries and those of others.


Throughout the episode, we discuss the Wheel of Consent and what
"arriving at consent" really means. You will learn about the
differences between the two dynamics of serving and receiving and
allowing and taking. Betty provides examples of how the
three-minute game can enhance self-awareness and how it can be
used to practice the skills of being aware of and able to
communicate boundaries and desires. We also discuss the
importance of the body in all of this and the positive impact
that "having a choice" can have on relationships.
