  • 17: Love Bombing - Is it Love Bombing or the real thing?

    How do you know the difference between love-bombing and the real thing? 

    In this week's podcast, I give you the answer so you don't fall victim to one. The purpose of this podcast is to make you aware of toxic behaviour, rather than hyper-focused on what could go wrong. Becoming the victim of love bombing can leave damage that will have a lasting impact. 

    It is much easier to recognise the difference rather than have to heal after a toxic relationship.

    I will give you 6 easy steps to stop the difference between a lover. bomber and someone who is genuine.

    Dating can be tough and it can feel hard to meet someone who you like and who likes you back. If you have experienced people ghosting you, had a string of horror dates or been dating people where you just don’t know where you stand then it is easy to get excited when you finally meet someone who shows they care!

    For a minute I want you to imagine how it would feel to meet someone who gives you all the attention, affection, appreciation and love you have always wanted.

    They give you flowers, compliments and want to be with you all the time.

    It would feel amazing right? Like all your dreams have finally come true.

    After being around people who didn’t give you what you felt you wanted and even deserved it is intoxicating to finally find someone who wants YOU.

    So much so that you overlook the red flags and the things that just don’t feel right. You feel like it is hard to meet someone so why would you pass this up.

    But what if that attention was toxic instead of being real love?

    You could be experiencing love bombing instead of the real thing.

  • 16: Communication - Expectations are the Root of Heartache in Relationships

    Communication is the foundation of every healthy relationship including dating, love, family friends and work. Yet with the people, we are the closest to, we assume that they will know us well and will automatically understand what we want and what we need from them. When that doesn't happen you get disappointed and it can build resentment in your close relationships.

    When you first click with someone, they do get you and it happens easily. It feels amazing to just click with them and have someone finally gets you! You feel heard, seen and understood. It generally happens without any effort.

    You will finish each other sentences, do anything to make each other happy and feel you 'get' each other and easily meet each other's needs.

    Then life gets in the way and those things fall away.  

    This is the time when communication issues come up. You may hear yourself saying - 'If they really cared they would have .......', 'If they loved me they wouldn't have acted that way'.

    You expect that if they really cared they would know what you need and end up feeling resentful when they don't.

    In this podcast, I talk about how that happens and how to communicate so you are heard.

    In this podcast, I give you the answer as well as what women really want in a man and how you can win her over.

  • 11: Breakups are one of the most painful experiences, how do you deal with them?

    When someone you love breakups with you it is one of the most painful experiences you can go through. You might not be able to eat, sleep or function. Your friends and family may be sympathetic for a while but then start to tell you that it happened for a reason, that there are plenty of fish in the sea and you will meet someone better. They mean well, but that advice doesn't help in fact, will often make you feel worse. In this Podcast, I give you advice on how to get through the breakup.

  • 10: Ghosting - What is it and How to Deal with It!

    In this week's podcast, I will give you Sara's story as well practical tips to deal with ghosting, breakups and rejection.

    Ghosting is a modern phenomenon! You may be lucky enough not to have never been ghosted and wondering what it is! It is when someone you have been dating simply disappears from your life without a trace or explanation. This could be after a couple of dates or even months of dating!

    People have been ending relationships badly since the beginning of time but it has become so much easier in the technological age. Ghosting people you barely know and who aren’t part of your daily life is easy to do without you seeing the effects.

    25% of singles admit to doing it even though they don't like it!

    If someone has ghosted you, didn’t want a second date or broke up with you after dating for a while. What do you do when someone doesn’t want you? How do you cope with that rejection?

    Rejection hurts! In fact, rejection SUCKS! Rejection NEVER EVER  feels good!

    It may be hard to reject someone but it is always worse to be on the receiving end.

    When you are  ghosted or rejected, it leaves you with many unanswered questions about why.  What was it that they didn’t like about you, were you not hot enough, smart enough, rich enough – what was it? It can end up driving you crazy thinking about the why and when it comes to ghosting it is even worse!
    Many times the rejection is not personal.  Don’t ever let rejection define you. You are not a failure because someone wasn’t interested in you.

    You can be ghosted for so many reasons that just aren't personal. Maybe they weren't over their ex, or not ready for the type of commitment you are, they could be having personal issues or they were looking for an ego boost., or simply weren't in the right place to give you what you want.

    ‘Every time I think I was being rejected from something good, I was actually being redirected to something better.’ Dr Steve Maroboli
    Many times the rejection is not personal.

  • 09: Three Simple Ways to Know if he Wants to be Your Boyfriend

    I see way too many single women waste time on men who are happy to spend time with them but don't ever want to take things any further. The ladies think the guys will see how amazing they are and change their minds. However, they don't and the worst part is that it can take women years to realise this.

    Not every man you meet or go out with will want to make you happy (which is a huge red flag). There are many guys who want to enjoy your company without commitment. How can you tell the difference, especially when it feels so good when you are together.

    I understand how you feel, after dating people you aren't attracted to it feels good with him someone who you are attracted to. You have told him what you are looking for and hope he is on the same page.

    So how do you know?

    It is actually simple when you know what to look for.

    For me as a coach for men and women, it is easy for me to see the signs and I am going to let you know exactly what to look for so you don't waste your precious time.

    This podcast will give you the answer to the question!
