I saw a headline that said - can officially put the Fairytale to bed and forget about marrying the Prince and living happily ever after. The article was about Megan and Harry, in this podcast, I am talking about fairytales and happily ever after. How can you see the signs that a relationship will work or won't and how you can create your own fairytale rather than fall into a personal nightmare.

Dating in the modern world can be particularly tough for men and it’s only getting harder. Dating dynamics have changed, and many men are apprehensive to approach a woman when they’re out. Online dating is not very encouraging either, with surveys showing men are only getting replies around 17% of the time. 

A recent study with 20,000 responses looked at the reason’s men believe they’re single. 1. Poor looks. 2. Low self-esteem. 3. Lack of effort. 4. Not interested in a relationship. 5. Poor flirting skills. 6. Introverted. 7. Recently broken up. 8. Bad experiences from previous relationships. 9. No available women. 10. Overweight. 

So how can men overcome this confidence crisis?

In this week's podcast, I interview Dave Rogers who is passionate about men's mental health and who talks about practical strategies for men to increase men's confidence.

Dave Rogers is a Global Mentor, Author, Ex Banker, Yoga Instructor, mental health advocate and also led coaching initiatives in more than 15 nations.

This is my first ever podcast interview and I was lucky Dave was so good!

This is the number one question I am asked as a Relationship Coach - 'Where can you meet quality singles?'  Nowadays there are more ways to meet other single people than ever before yet people are more likely to remain single.  

Crazy, right!

In this week's podcast I give you the answer so you can get the relationship that YOU deserve!

Why do women say that they want to meet a great guy, then end up liking the bad boys?

You know they seem to choose the narcissist who only thinks about what’s in it for them, the arsehole who doesn’t care about their feelings or the player who will just play them and leave them hurt.

A bad boy (arsehole, narcissist, player) is a guy who doesn’t care about the women’s needs or wants – it’s all about him and what he wants. He is heartless and the equivalent of a bitch!

Seems crazy to choose people who are going to be bad for you, yet women do it time and time again.

Leaving the nice guy feeling like he is totally out of luck as he just can’t get the girl!

It might seem like a crazy thing to do but there is actually a good reason why women don’t choose the nice guy and I am going to let you know what that is. Oh, and  It is not that the women are choosing to deliberately cause themselves pain.

This podcast will give women the reason why they do this and help men understand what they can do be successful.  b

I love the language we use when we talk about love - we say we fell in love, that we are madly in love or even crazy in love! In the Western world where we spend so much time in our heads, we love the feeling of being out of control and giving ourselves over to something we can't control!

In this week's podcast, I talk about that elusive spark that everyone is looking for. It doesn't matter how young or how old you are, everyone wants to meet someone where they feel something that they haven't felt before.

I talk about what the spark is and some of the common myths that could be stopping you getting the very love you want.

Maybe you have been given the advice that – ‘you will find love when you least expect it’. Or you have heard the cliche? Things are usually a cliche as they happen so often. In this week's podcast, I let you know why people do find love when they least expect it.

Do you want to know how to get a relationship in 2021?

Maybe you were looking for a relationship in 2020 and it just didn’t happen? You might have started the year full of hope only to be hit by a global pandemic that changed everything! COVID changed our lives and that included dating!

Maybe you even started to feel like even the universe/God was against you especially after experiencing a global pandemic!!

Don’t lose heart, if you didn’t find love in 2020 then 2021 can be your year.

This podcast tells you how!

As a Relationship Coach, I am always asked this one question I’m often asked is "How on earth did you get started in all this?"

It's a great question and one I answer in my first podcast along with what I do!

I’ve been doing this for over a decade. I’m consumed with empowering singles just like you to be successful in love. I am obsessed with having bigger conversations about love, dating and relationships. The ones that change lives. 

I want to cut through the superficial stuff that just doesn't work.
