Welcome to Your Life, and Welcome to Sex, Love & Money 💋
The Podcast for the woman who knows she’s meant for more, the woman who is done settling in love, intimacy and finances, and in who she allows herself to be.
This is your invitation to step into your next chapter, to own your woman, to embody your power and start living a life that feels truly meaningful and aligned.
No more settling for vanilla sex, no more choosing the almost good enough guy, no more staying in a career that doesn’t fulfil, no more looking at your bank balance and seeing only lack and limitation, no more sacrificing your dreams, and not giving a voice to your true desires, no more surface-level anything.
It’s our time for it all; all the pleasure, all the aliveness, all the fulfilment, all the abundance.
All of the Sex, Love & Money, that we all deserve.
Let’s Fucking Go.

Shamina Taylor joins us on Sex, Love & Money today. In this episode we get into why high achievers are often the most financially stuck, what your relationship with your father has to do with your relationship with money, why energetic shopping is a real strategy, and the one question she asks that immediately reveals your money limit.Follow Shamina Taylor on IG: @shaminataylor Apply to work with Rebecca in Breakthrough School by booking your introductory call here.

This episode is about learning to stop treating your growth like a means to an end - and start falling in love with who you're becoming along the way. It's the case for ditching the finish-line mentality and finding the aliveness in the messy middle.Apply to work with Rebecca in Breakthrough School by booking your introductory call here.

Most women were never taught about their pleasure. Most men were never taught about women's pleasure. So we've all just been winging it, and nobody talks about the damage that does.Women are leaving relationships. Women are cheating in relationships. Women are lying in bed saying the sex was great when really it wasn't, because they were never taught they were allowed to ask for more. And men are assuming everything is fine because she never said otherwise.If you have ever pretended it was fine when it wasn't. If you have ever let him roll over and go to sleep without saying a word. If you have ever wondered why you keep ending up here, this episode will name the thing you've never been able to.Your pleasure is not a bonus. It is not a nice-to-have. It is a non-negotiable. And if you've never said that out loud, this is the episode where you start.What we cover:Why nobody taught us about women's pleasure — and what that silence has cost usThe difference between a man who gives because he wants to and one who gives out of obligationWhy women cheat — and what men still refuse to acknowledge about itIf your partner brings you a need and you won't meet it, expect it to be outsourcedHow to communicate your non-negotiables in bed without shutting down or blowing upTIMESTAMPS00:00: The conversation no one is having honestly about sex01:35: Most women were never taught their pleasure matters — and most men weren't either27:20: The four types of men in bed — and the one that belongs in the bin58:27: Underneath most cheaters is an unmet need, and nobody wants to say it1:06:14: Your pleasure is a non-negotiable.

A nervous man is not the same as an unavailable man.A man who talks too much about himself on date two is not the same as a man who can't show up for you. A man who takes time to ask the right questions is not the same as a man who never will. Somewhere along the way, a lot of us stopped telling the difference between a red flag and a human being.Real standards protect you. But sometimes what we call standards is actually a wall, and it's costing us the very thing we say we want.Modern dating has taught us to spot every red flag fast. What it hasn't taught us is how to tell a red flag apart from a man who's simply still learning you. This episode is about that gap, and what it might be costing you.---WHAT WE GET INTOThe difference between a red flag and a man who's simply still learning youHow to tell the difference between high standards and self-protectionWhy a man holding his boundaries under pressure is the real testGiving good men grace without abandoning your non-negotiablesTIMESTAMPS00:00: Red flags deserve an exit.

You've wondered about it. Maybe you've even fantasised about it.What would it actually be like to open up your relationship? Would it fix what's missing, or would it blow everything up?Tyler Ippoliti has been married for 8 years and polyamorous for 6 of them. In this episode he takes us all the way in: the first threesome that was awkward as hell, the night his wife went on a date with a man from her past and he sat with his anxious attachment in real time, the relationship he had to grieve while planning to have kids, and the deep-end experience with another couple that nearly broke all of them.We talk about jealousy, attachment, sexual health conversations, and why he believes opening a relationship won't fix a single thing that's already broken, it just adds gasoline. We also get into why so many men in open relationships don't disclose it upfront, and what that says about what they're actually doing.This one is honest, uncomfortable in places, and might just answer questions you've never said out loud.WHAT WE GET INTOWhat actually happens the first time you try a threesome with your partnerWhy opening a relationship won't fix what's already brokenThe anxious attachment that comes up when your partner is on a date with someone elseWhy men in open relationships often don't tell you until date three — and what that meansJealousy: where it actually comes from and how to work with itTIMESTAMPS00:00: What open and polyamorous actually mean, and the difference between them03:55: The first threesome, and why it was awkward as hell14:08: The date that triggered his deepest anxious attachment28:55: Ending a relationship to start trying for kids, and how his wife held him through it49:32: The deep end: falling in love with another couple, and why it nearly broke everyone1:02:58: Why opening a relationship adds gasoline, not water, to existing problems1:08:10: Jealousy, fantasy, and what it's actually telling youConnect with me on socials by saying hi over on IG: @rebecca.antonucci (http://www.instagram.com/rebecca.antonucci)Connect with Tyler: @tylerwayneippoliti Apply to work with us in Breakthrough School by booking your introductory call here.

You live in one of the most beautiful countries on earth.You also live in a country where women are afraid to be seen trying. Where standing out invites being cut down. Where your bigness makes other people uncomfortable, and somehow that becomes your problem to manage.I love Australia. But this is an honest episode.In America, women tell me I inspire them. In Australia, they walk up and say, “I just want you to know, you're a trigger for me.” Woman after woman. And I've spent a long time working out what I'm meant to do with that. This episode is where I landed.Tall poppy syndrome is real. The fear of being seen trying is real. And the price women pay for staying safe, the clipped wings, the unlived dreams, that's real too. I'm done cuddling insecurities to make people comfortable around my standards. This is permission for you to stop doing it too.I read Roger Federer's graduation speech, where he reveals that despite winning 80% of his career matches, he only won 54% of the points. That one stat broke something open in me about what it means to go after your dreams without needing every step to be the right one.WHAT WE GET INTOTall poppy syndrome and what it's actually costing youWhy someone else being triggered by your bigness is not your problemThe difference between being inspiring and being a triggerWhy your desires are hiding if you're hiding themRoger Federer only won 54% of his points, and what that means for your next stepEpisode 200.

You declared a big life.You said you were done settling. Done with the vanilla relationship, the career that drains you, the surface level friendships. You said you wanted more, more depth, more aliveness, more love, more of everything that actually matters.And then life said yes. And here you are, wondering why it's so hard.This is what no one tells you when you declare more: the yes comes with everything. The expansion and the discomfort. The love and the heartbreak. The dream and the risk that it might not work. You don't get to pick the parts you like and leave the rest. All parts of the woman come with the woman.I recorded this solo episode earlier this year, live from my first ever podcast set, the first day I've ever produced a full set like this, and things went wrong. Files got cut short. Equipment didn't hold up. And instead of collapsing, I sat down and made this episode. Because this is exactly what saying yes to life looks like. Not the highlight reel. This.I open up about something I've been sitting with for a while, a memory from my first relationship that's been quietly surfacing, and why I think it explains more about my patterns with men than almost anything else I've ever shared publicly. And I tell you about the friend who finally had the courage to look me in the eye and say what he actually felt, and why moments of honesty with men, changed everything.This one is raw. It's real. It's recorded from the middle of the risk.Connect with me on socials by saying hi over on IG: @rebecca.antonucci (http://www.instagram.com/rebecca.antonucci)Apply to work with us in Breakthrough School by booking your introductory call here.

You've been told it happens when you least expect it.You've been told to do the work, heal your wounds, live your life, and he'll appear. And you've done all of that. And you're still waiting. And the ticking of that clock is getting louder.This episode isn't going to tell you to stop wanting it. It's going to show you what it actually takes to build it, and why so many people are struggling to get there.Jeddy and Kari Azuma have been married for 13 years. They met when she was 31 and ready, and he was 25 and looked like a pirate fresh off Burning Man. She took the risk anyway, not because he had the kingdom built, but because she could see the man he was becoming. That bet paid off in ways neither of them could have planned.In this episode, we get into all of it. Whether a woman can get a man ready for relationship. Why the entitlement women bring to dating is actually coming from protection, not selfishness. Why dating apps, pornography and ChatGPT breakup texts are quietly destroying our ability to actually relate. And what it means to play the long game when everything in modern culture is telling you to tap out.What we cover:Does a man need to build his kingdom before he's ready for love?Why your dating standards might be protecting you from the very thing you wantThe real reason good relationships are getting harder to find and keepHow to highlight a gap in your man without becoming his motherWhy holding the tension, not tapping out, is the actual skillTimestamps:00:00: Does a man need to build his kingdom before he's ready for love?13:03: Why women's entitlement in dating is really just protection in disguise21:05: The moment Kari realised she'd been showing up to love with a checklist27:29: Playing the long game: the season they almost lost each other33:58: Dating apps, pornography and ChatGPT breakup texts, what they're doing to us50:28: It happens when you least expect it, but what does that mean when you're ready now?Find Jeddy: @jeddyazuma on InstagramFind Kari: @kariazuma on InstagramConnect with me on socials by saying hi over on IG: @rebecca.antonucci (http://www.instagram.com/rebecca.antonucci)Apply to work with us in Breakthrough School by booking your introductory call here.

You know that feeling when something goes wrong and your reaction is so extreme it scares even you?When you can't sleep, can't switch off, and every tool in your kit isn't touching it, and a voice in your head is telling you it's all their fault?It's not. And this episode is going to show you exactly why.Mitchell Vickridge is a clinical facilitator and one of the most grounding people I've ever sat across from. He specialises in pride and shame: two states most of us are oscillating between all day long without even knowing it. He spent three and a half hours helping me go from a state of extreme anger when my Austin podcast set did not go to plan, to actually understanding why what happened, happened. This episode is a window into that process.We get into the hidden order underneath your hardest moments, why the people who trigger you the most are actually your greatest teachers, and the one question that will dissolve almost any resentment you're holding right now. We also talk about why you keep chasing the same fantasy in love and money, and why the universe keeps withholding exactly what you want most.If you've been stuck in a loop you can't get out of, this is the episode that might finally break it.What we coverWhy your most extreme reactions are always about you, not themThe hidden order: how to find the gift in what hurt you mostWhy you're attracted to who you're attracted to (and what it's really about)How past pleasure is quietly sabotaging your love life right nowWhy the universe keeps withholding exactly what you wantTIMESTAMPS00:00: Why your biggest emotional reactions are always pointing back at you01:38: What pride and shame actually are, and why you're oscillating between them all day13:31: The hidden order: why the person who hurt you was actually your teacher19:33: The fantasy problem: why chasing what you want keeps pushing it away30:41: Past pleasure informs future fantasy, how old relationships wreck new ones43:37: How to actually value money in a way that sticksFind Mitch: @mitchellvickridge on Instagram.

You've had great sex that left you feeling nothing.You've had a man who did everything right, and woken up emptier than before. You told yourself it was him. You moved on. You tried again. Same result, different man.It was never him. And it was never the act of intimacy. It was the absence of everything that needed to come first.Vanilla sex has nothing to do with what's happening in the bedroom. It's sex without roots. Sex without time. Sex without knowing someone, and being known back. And if you've been cycling through men wondering why nothing ever feels like enough, this episode is going to name something you've felt but never quite had the words for.I recorded this 48 hours after a real epiphany hit me mid-dating: live, unfiltered, and straight from Bali. I tell you the full story of the man I've been dating, the padel court where it started, the wine cellar date, the comedy show, the cup of tea that wasn't just a cup of tea, and the moment I caught myself about to do the exact thing I tell every woman not to do.Because the truth is: if you're using sex to try to feel something, no man will ever be able to give you what you're actually looking for. Time and time again you will be setting you and him up to fail. And the sooner we name that, the sooner everything changes.Raw, real, and recorded live in Bali two days after the epiphany hit. You're welcome.WHAT WE GET INTO— What vanilla sex actually is, and why it has nothing to do with the bedroom— Why the f*ck and chuck cycle is grief in disguise, not cruelty— The Healthy Man Starter Pack: how to tell if it's real or just an act— Why making him wait isn't about games, it's about you finding out the truth— The Bali dating story unfolding right now, live revelations and completely unfilteredTIMESTAMPS00:00: What vanilla sex actually is, and what it has nothing to do with01:20: Sex without roots: why connection can't be rushed into being07:25: The f*ck and chuck cycle isn't cruelty, it's grief22:17: The Healthy Man Starter Pack, how to know if it's real or an act29:36: Why dating too fast is setting you up to feel nothing54:05: Why no man will ever be able to give you what you're actually looking forConnect with me on socials by saying hi over on IG: @rebecca.antonucci (http://www.instagram.com/rebecca.antonucci)Apply to work with us in Breakthrough School by booking your introductory call here.
