I know I probably say this about all of my episodes, but this one is so important. If you find yourself constantly anxious, angry, or feeling stuck, there’s a good chance you haven’t felt your feelings.
If you aren’t sure how you feel sometimes or you rail against things, there’s a good chance you’re repressing your feelings.
Over a lifetime of repressing your feelings, you disconnect from yourself, and minimize your ability to connect with others.
So you can see how this making find love extra tricky.

A lot of you have told me you feel confident when you’re around someone you DON’T like, but when it’s someone you like, you fall apart. So let’s break this down.
There’s something to this, and in fact, in many of the tips I share in the episode, they’ll each get their own episodes in the very near future.
Because when you feel confident except when you’re with someone you like, that tells me there’s an issue of vulnerability and your dating energy.
Enough on that now, you’ll hear a lot more about your dating energy soon, but for now, in this episode, I’ll share with you SIX super simple things you can do to feel more confident on a date with someone you actually like!

Would it surprise you if I said people pleasers and narcissists are a match made in heaven?
It’s true.
People pleasers are the largest subsection of my clients, and their biggest frustration is attracting narcissists. The bad news is this is a frustrating pattern to break, but the good news is it’s totally breakable.
In fact, if you’re a people pleaser, I’ve got a meditation for you that’ll help you to say NO to others.

**Nerd train alert.**
Ok, just kidding, but I do nerd out over all things personal finance.
That’s why when I came across Catie, I knew I had to get her into your earbuds. Catie is a financial planner for millennial women who want to get their shit together.
I love her no nonsense approach to finance, swirled with her ability to meet you where you’re at and her humor, I think you’re gonna love her too.

Just this morning, I deleted about 1000 subscribers from my email list. If you don’t run a business, let me explain the magnitude of this:
If I’m not working with my clients, I’m probably working on building my email list and community. Some business owners never make it to the 1000 subscriber mark, and I just deleted 1000.
These 1000 subscribers hadn’t opened an email from me in months; in the marketing world, they’d be called “cold subscribers.” Other business owners might think I'm crazy, but I had to make a tough call.
Ultimately I did it because the cold subscribers were draining my energy. I was constantly focused on how can I re-engage them and why they didn't like me.
But in keeping these cold subscribers on my list, I wasn't creating space for what I wanted to call more of into my life, nor was I serving who WAS there with my full attention.
And in doing so, I realized I wasn’t asking myself the right question, which is: “How can I inspire, educate, or entertain the 1000s of women that DO want to be here?"

I’m so grateful for my friend Dagmar and the work she does in the world.
The amount of trauma, shame, and embarrassment around our sexuality is startling. And it’s not something you can so easily just compartmentalize. It shows up in how YOU show up to men and in relationships.
Creating sexual freedom in your life is creating more freedom for you as a whole in your life.

In this episode, I interview my friend Jen on how childhood emotional trauma has affected her relationships today as an adult.
Even if you’ve never been abused or didn’t experience trauma in the way Jen and I discuss on today’s episode, it doesn’t mean that your upbringing didn’t affect you in some way in how you relate to men and relationships.
And if it happened 10 years ago, 20 or 30, and you haven’t dealt with it, there’s a chance it’s impacting your relationships today.

Dating in the modern world can be tricky, but I don’t think it’s inherently because of the apps, texting, snapping, or swiping. I think what makes it tricky is part of a larger problem that we all face from living an increasingly online life.
I share what I think that problem is, and what you can do to stay out of the ‘games’ modern dating brings and how to know if you’re with the ‘best’ person for you.

This is one of the top questions I get asked by my clients.
The truth is, the answer is complicated. Sometimes a dating break is useful and very necessary. Sometimes, a dating break is holding us back. Sometimes too much dating is holding you back, and everything in between!
In this episode, I ask you 5 questions that you need to ask yourself to know if you need a dating break or if you’re good to date.
I think you’re gonna love it, and after you listen, come tell me what you’re going to decide to do over on Instagram!

This may sound crazy, but I’ve recently cut out most of the self-help outlets in my life.
Yep, I unfollowed dozens of accounts, unsubscribed from podcasts, and unsubscribed from emails.
This seems kinda weird, since, well, I’m IN the self-help industry, but it dawned on me that I was completely addicted.
Let’s back up a bit:
We live in a world where we’re taught to be believe that we’re not good enough, and that something external can “fix” us.
For years I thought I was too fat, and what’s why I couldn’t get into a relationship. Maybe you think you’re too fat. Or maybe you’ve been told you’re too emotional, too masculine, or just too “much.”
