Dr. Sara Nasserzadeh - Strengthening Relationship Bonds (A Revisit)

Real Love Ready: The Series

Show Notes

This week, we’re revisiting an episode packed with tools you can come back to again and again. Dr. Sara Nasserzadeh is a world-renowned social psychologist specializing in sexuality and relationships. If you’ve ever wished relationships came with a manual, this conversation is as close as it gets. Drawing from her book, Love By Design, Dr. Sara shares her research-backed model of Emergent Love, a way of seeing love not as something we fall into, but as something that emerges as a byproduct of a thriving relationship. Robin and Dr. Sara walk through the six essential ingredients of Emergent Love, attraction, respect, trust, shared vision, compassion, and loving behaviours, and bring them to life through practical, real-world examples. Together, they explore why loving behaviours matter most in the day-to-day, how attraction evolves over time, and how personal growth changes the shape of our relationships. You’ll also hear simple exercises you can use right away to strengthen the bonds you cherish most, with a partner, a friend, or anyone you care about. We want to hear from you!
