Love Is Us is a podcast about rebuilding connection where it matters most: with yourself, with your intimate partners, and with the people and communities you care about. Hosted by Karin Calde, PhD, CPC, a former therapist and current relationship coach with a background in Internal Family Systems, the show features thoughtful conversations with experienced practitioners and guides exploring love, attachment, intimacy, and the inner work that supports lasting relationships. Many episodes focus on the unique questions that arise in midlife, when long-standing patterns surface and the desire for deeper authenticity grows stronger. Karin also brings her experience facilitating legal, guided psychedelic work in Oregon into the conversation, offering a grounded, ethical perspective on how expanded states of awareness can support insight, healing, and relational growth when approached with care, integrity, and integration. You'll hear honest, nuanced discussions about long-term partnership, dating, sex, and self-development, with an emphasis on depth, responsibility, and real-world application.
