Mentor and relationship coach Lori Jean Glass joins us to discuss how her PIVOT process works and all of the specific modules offered for couples and individuals, what onboarding is and why we need to know if it has happened, how to look in the rearview mirror to reflect on childhood trauma and why it tends to be overlooked in adulthood, why it can be dangerous to jump into certain types of relationship analysis before really understanding yourself first, whether it’s healthier to date offensively versus defensively, how to determine who someone is intellectually, emotionally, physically, spiritually and financially and what your non-negotiables are, why commitment, consistency, being well met and well matched are more important than love, how a relational governing body can help keep a marriage together, and what Lori Jean thinks about Jen and Lauren‘s individual wants and how that affects where they are in their lives and relationships now!

Beauty, dating and lifestyle blogger Lindsay Cockburn joins us to celebrate Christmas and discuss how dating in LA is basically the opposite of what it looks like in the movies, the definition of “very single,” the other things that go into dating other than the date itself, when to let go of the pressures we put on ourselves, why sometimes it’s more fun to be independent and in a honeymoon phase with yourself than in a relationship with someone else, how people in relationships might also have fomo, why having a full heart in any capacity can be enough, how to spot a “future faker” and why Santa probably brings them coal, how not to blame yourself when someone doesn’t follow through, when to trust your spidey sense and speak up and how much blame to take, why making a list and checking it twice helps with manifesting, and why taking a break and focusing on bettering your personal life is a fantastic gift to give yourself around the holidays, while we cheers with our nightcap, Christmas Champs!
