Description

To Hump A Pillow is a podcast about the patterns that shape our relationships — with our partners, our children, our desires, and ourselves. Through storytelling and self-discovery, Ellen Melon guides listeners through the deeper work of becoming safer in their bodies, braver in their conversations, and more authentic in their relationships. A podcast for adults who are rewriting the stories they were handed, Ellen blends sex education, relationship coaching, and pattern recognition to help people talk openly about intimacy, desire, conflict, and the parts of themselves they've spent years avoiding. This is relationship therapy in podcast form — with a clergy-like honesty, a recovering-people-pleaser heart, and a storyteller's soul.
