Kate Moyle is one of the UK’s leading psychosexual therapists and a respected voice in the field of modern intimacy, desire, and sexual wellbeing.

In this episode of Thriving Minds Kate explains why so many people feel disconnected in their relationships, not due to a lack of love, but because of shame, silence, and the myths we’ve internalized about sex.

She breaks down:

• Why desire fades in long-term relationships, and how to rekindle it
• The truth behind the orgasm gap and performance anxiety
• How childhood, culture, and pornography shape sexual identity
• The role of communication and compatibility in emotional and physical connection
• What healthy sex actually looks like, and why it’s different for everyone

With clinical insight and human warmth, Kate offers an evidence-based roadmap to better sex, deeper intimacy, and more honest relationships.

This is not a conversation about sex as entertainment.

It’s a conversation about sex as connection, and why it remains one of the most misunderstood parts of our lives.

Nikola Mrkšić didn’t grow up dreaming of building a $500 million AI company. He wanted to be a neurosurgeon, or a diplomat. Instead, he co-founded Europe’s leading AI platform, PolyAI, a company handling over 100 million customer calls a year, backed by NVIDIA, and reshaping how we interact with machines.

In this raw, unfiltered conversation, Nikola reveals:

• Why he never planned to be an entrepreneur, and how he got “accidentally” rich.
• The real reason AI startups get funding with no product, no revenue, and no customers.
• How his childhood during the Yugoslav wars shaped his obsession with seizing opportunity.
• The stress, pressure, and burnout behind building a billion-dollar company with two toddlers at home.
• Why Europe is broken for tech and what he’d do differently if starting today.
• His brutally honest take on success, motivation, and why some people should never start a company.

This episode cuts through the hype and tells the truth about what it takes to succeed in AI, and why most people are chasing the wrong dream.

There are over 400 dog breeds in the world.

So why is most pet food still made based on size?

Entrepreneur Victor Mortreu, Co-Founder of Just Russel, asked that same question, and built one of the fastest-growing pet food companies in Europe in response.

By using AI to create custom-tailored nutrition plans, Just Russel is helping pets live longer, healthier lives.

The company is now doing over $30 million in annual revenue.

Victor is a firm believer in failing and testing cheaply. He did that a few times until co-founding Just Russel.

What changed?

His mindset, his process, and his ability to spot a rising cultural shift: pets becoming the new children.

Success is all about testing and keep trying.

In this conversation with Alberto, Victor reveals:

• ​How to test and validate business ideas quickly, with minimal capital
• ​The advantages of scaling from a smaller market like Belgium
• ​What most founders get wrong about building trust with modern consumers
• ​The entrepreneurial lessons behind turning trends into businesses

This is not just a story about pet food. It’s about timing, psychology, and building a product that actually matters.

If you’re thinking about launching something new, or pivoting something old, this is the episode you’ll want to study.

Born into a family of successful entrepreneurs, many assumed Henry’s path was already paved. That his success was inherited, not earned.

• Identity and legacy
• The pressure of high expectations
• Choosing challenge over comfort
• Redefining success when money isn’t the motivator

Henry built a thriving, values-led business in the organic consumer space—and faced the invisible hurdles that come with being expected to win.
