I’m delighted to share my latest podcast interview with Maria Palumbo, a sex, love, trauma coach, and psychotherapist. I discovered Maria’s work through a Facebook post titled “The Most Attentive Man in the Room is the One Who Is Lying To You.” The message resonated deeply, prompting me to feature her on our platform dedicated to elevating voices from the ENM, polyamorous, and LGBTQ+ community. Maria’s commitment to promoting healthy relationships and emotional intelligence aligns perfectly with our mission.
