Dené Logan: Finding the Balance Within of Your Masculine & Feminine Forces

Does something feel off about your intimate relationships? According to author and couples therapist Dené Logan, the answer to your problem may lie in the interplay of your masculine and feminine energies.

Masculine and feminine polarities are present in every person and relationship. When we’re out of touch with the energetics within ourselves and those around us, it can create an internal struggle and sense of disharmony in our partnerships.

In this episode, Andrew and Dené discuss:

• Understanding the polarities in your partnership
• Integrating masculine and feminine energies
• Moving away from a codependent, transactional view of your relationship
• Some of the historical and cultural reasons our relationships turn out the way they do.

Dené Logan is an LA-based marriage and family therapist, who takes a depth psychology approach. She is also a group facilitator, public speaker, yoga and mindfulness instructor, and the co-host of the Cheaper than Therapy podcast. Dené is also a mentee to acclaimed couples therapist Esther Perel. Her book, Sovereign Love, was published in May 2024.
