If you’re ready to transform the way you love, this episode is your invitation.
We sit down with Dr. Alicia Watkins, PhD, LCSW—renowned relationship therapist and national leader in the emotional and spiritual healing of Black relationships. With honesty and clinical depth, Dr. Alicia breaks down the real barriers to healthy romantic connections: trauma patterns, communication breakdowns, attachment wounds, ego work, and boundaries.
This conversation speaks to anyone who has ever wondered why they repeat the same relationship cycles or struggle to feel safe, seen, and understood. Dr. Alicia offers clarity, compassion, and practical tools to help you build deeper intimacy and love more intentionally.
