An ABA Breakdown of Netflix's Love Is Blind Season 9

This week, Paola, Leslie, and Brittanny take a behavioral dive into Netflix Love Is Blind season 9 episode 10 and 11, exploring what Applied Behavior Analysis reveals about the way people love, fight, and stay in unhealthy relationships. Using the couples they break down how reinforcement, punishment, and learning history shape emotional patterns and attraction. Paola opens the episode by sharing her experience advocating for herself in her second hospital stay, connecting it to the importance of empathy and communication in both healthcare and behavior analysis.Throughout the discussion, the hosts connect these relationship patterns to behavioral principles like functional analysis, reinforcement history, private events, and environmental contingencies. They emphasize that these same dynamics appear in therapy rooms, workplaces, and families, not just reality TV. This episode helps listeners understand how reinforcement drives connection and conflict, why empathy and bedside manner matter in every field, and how “trusting your gut” can function as a cue for self-advocacy and boundary setting. ☕ Support your favorite ABA podcast hosts by showing them love at buymeacoffee.com/everydayaba⭐ Help EveryDay ABA reach more people by following the show + , turning on automatic downloads, and leaving a 5-star review! 📲 Follow us on Instagram: @EveryDayABA.3 for daily ABA insights and behind-the-scenes podcast updates.📖 Get your CEU certificate here!👟 Get a 10% Discount at Tiny Explorings Shoes using discount code PAOLA  🎁 Earn Rewards every time you shop by using Shopkick 🤑 Earn $50 cash back by using Rakuten   📊   Earn 125,000 bonus points by opening a new Sapphire Reserve® account or 75,000 bonus points for opening a new Sapphire Preferred® account using EveryDayABA's code at Chase 📢 To advertise on this podcast please e-mail: [email protected]
