Welcome to Hearts Wine from Hearts Distractions, the podcast where we dive deep into the messiness, beauty, and complexities of relationships—from the excitement of new dating to the challenges of long-term commitments and marriage. I’m your host Allisha Minor-Gaines, and this is the place for real, raw, and often controversial conversations about love, connection, and everything in between. In this space, we’ll explore the ups and downs of relationships, the distractions that pull us away from each other, and how the tears—our “wine”—are often the product of those emotional twists and turns.

Episode 18: "Love vs. Control: Are You Helping Each Other Grow, or Holding Each Other Back?"

In this episode of Hearts Wine from Hearts Distractions, we dive into the fine line between love and control. Are you truly empowering your partner to grow, or are you unintentionally holding them back with controlling behaviors? We’ll explore the complexities of love, the subtle ways control can sneak into relationships, and how generational patterns, societal views, and cultural expectations influence the dynamics between couples. Tune in for raw, real, and often controversial conversations on how to build a healthy, balanced relationship that supports personal growth for both partners.

As we unravel this important topic, we’ll share personal stories, real-life examples, and insights from marriage & family therapy research to help you understand how to nurture love without stepping into the territory of control. Whether you’re newly dating, in a long-term relationship, or married, this episode offers valuable advice for anyone looking to strengthen their bond and cultivate a partnership based on trust, respect, and mutual growth.

Join us as we reflect on how past experiences and societal pressures can shape our approach to love—and how we can break free from these patterns to create a more empowered, fulfilling connection.
