WHERE TWO THERAPISTS DISH ABOUT THEIR OWN ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS
Ever wonder what your therapist’s own romantic relationship is like? Well, wonder no more! Relationship Dish is the podcast where two clinically trained therapists talk about interpersonal relationships and dish about the challenges and virtues of their own. Hey, relationships are hard for everyone—even therapists! In this podcast, we practice “walking our own talk” as we journey through love’s ups and downs and our own humble quests to be better partners. We hope that our candid struggles, personal revelations, and professional advice will help you be the best partner you can be.
We are Iona Monk and Pam Stewart. Join us, and let’s dish!

MEET THE DISHERS
Iona Monk and Pam Stewart each bring over 20 years of therapeutic and counselling experience to their roles as co-hosts and creative producers of the Relationship Dish podcast. Since launching in September 2017, they have released more than 100 episodes of organic, unscripted conversations on a wide range of topics—from intimacy to arguments to the effects of childhood trauma on adult relationships. New episodes are released bi-weekly on Wednesday mornings.
Iona and Pam created the podcast to specifically demonstrate how a therapist navigates relationship challenges and applies strategies to do “better” in the future. Their goal is to reduce the stigma associated with having relationship challenges. They focus on how couples can get “unstuck” and move forward through easily consumable, research-based information.
Balancing an intentional amount of personal disclosure with psychological theory and a liberal dose of humor, Pam and Iona model that the best way to improve a relationship is through self-awareness, responsibility, and the ability to dialogue in a productive way with your partner. The result is a useful, insightful, and efficient way to strengthen your relationships.

❤︎ MORE ABOUT IONA
Iona Monk is a registered clinical counsellor with a graduate degree from the University of British Columbia. She views interpersonal relationships, especially couples’ dynamics through two theoretical lenses: attachment systems and defense systems. Both are wise and useful lenses to help people understand and connect with themselves and with the most cherished people in their lives. It is this knowledge of life and love that Iona shares on the Relationship Dish podcast. Her desire is to share her knowledge, humor, and experience with all, to educate and normalize relationship issues that every person experiences.
❤︎ MORE ABOUT PAM
Pam Stewart is a registered clinical counsellor, with a Masters Degree from the University of British Columbia and another from the University of Colorado. She truly believes that we all grow and evolve most significantly in the context of relationships. Pam’s clinical passion is working with parents and children to facilitate the healthiest attachment relationships possible. Children’s early experience of being loved and interacting with parents and caretakers have tremendous influence on their later experiences as lovers, partners, and friends. Pam is aware that no matter how much theoretical knowledge she has, the bottom line is having the courage and commitment to put that knowledge into day-to-day practice in her own relationships.
