This is the episode for you if you're sick of waiting around for the guy to text you back, or to actually take initiative and ask you out, but you're hesitant to actually cut him loose.

This episode is inspired by one of the girls in the community who DMed me a revelation she had where she finally raised her standards and stopped settling. Now, she feels liberated in dating.

This episode is designed to show you what your dating life and relationships can look like when you raise your standards and draw those boundaries!

I used to put up with all the red flags. I'd let things slide because I didn't have the belief that I'd ever actually find a guy...since I'm tall, opinionated and financially successful.

This scarcity mindset hugely backfired! It kept me stuck in the cycle of dating Gumball Guys for years. The ironic thing is, all the things about myself that I was trying to hide, are the things my partner now loves the most.

This episode is to give you rapid fire the top things to look out for to know if you're dating or talking to a Gumball Guy, and to also remind you how important it is to BELIEVE. Believe that you are worthy, believe that there IS the perfect guy out there for you, and that you don't have to settle.

We also have a brand new workbook available to give you the full breakdown of all the different flavors of Gumball Guys and the red flags to look out for. Get it on the first page at gumballlove.com!

Teenagers these days face unprecedented challenges when it comes to dating and relationships.

No other generation before them was raised in the world of social media (and now, social distancing).

With "we're just hanging out" and other no-labeling strangeness normalized, it can be hard to know if this guy you've been texting is really into YOU or just using you.

In this episode, I'm breaking down how teens specifically can notice the patterns of Gumball Guys so they can break out of the cycle and save themselves a lot of hurt and heartbreak in the future.

So if you are a teenager, or you have one in your life who needs to hear this, please listen and share!

You have to stop shaming and judging yourself for staying with the wrong guy, even though you see the red flags now. Period!

In this episode we answer the question...why do we feel so dumb for staying with a Gumball Guy or having done so in the past?

You are NOT dumb, and it doesn't help you in any way to think so. This episode will give you the mindset makeover you need to break out of the blame and shame game, and get on the path towards healing.

After going through a traumatic relationship, divorce, or breakup, it can be really hard to keep having hope that things will get better and everything will work out in the end. How do we not lose hope after getting beat down?

When we have a physical injury, it's clear that we need to take rest and heal. However, when it's an emotional wound, somehow there's this expectation to "move on quickly" and "bounce back."

As we know, it's not that simple. And there are some key things we need to understand before we're truly able to move on and break free. In this podcast episode, I talk about what steps you need to take after a traumatic breakup in order to heal and not lose hope.

With the Delta variant on the rise, it's been highly requested to do another episode on online dating and how to navigate it, so I'll be answering some of your questions!

Online dating can be so overwhelming with endless options of people. A lot of times, we go into it when we're not ready, which can make things even worse.

Not to mention, we're inundated with zero to low effort guys sending nothing but 'how r u' or 'nice smile'.

But don't worry, in this episode I'm breaking down:

• What questions to ask yourself before going into online dating so you can be crystal clear about what you're looking for
• How to filter out the low effort guys and focus your attention on high quality men so you don't waste your time
• Getting your mindset right and your life in order before online dating so that you feel fully confident and ready to dive in

You're having a fun night on a date, or maybe a night out, and it's come to that moment when you're wondering whether you should go back to his place or have him come back to yours for sex or not.

While I can't make this decision for you and would never try to, I do want to give you a few questions to ask yourself before making the decision and to really think about.

We'll also talk about the real reason why guys ghost after sex-- it's often not having anything to do with you, and everything to do with them.

Enter the search term "dating advice" on Google or Youtube and you're bound to come across listicles or videos with titles like "10 Things You're Doing that are Turning Men Off" or "The Number One Mistake Women Make in Dating".

From this day forward, I want you to STOP consuming content like this. It's crap!!

1. You're never gonna find the holy grail of "what men want" because all men are DIFFERENT just like all women are different

2. This type of advice does not teach you how to have a deep, intimate relationship..it teaches you how to catch the attention of shallow men

3. The pick up artists who sell this advice never speak from personal experience and are almost never in successful, healthy relationships themselves.

Forget it all!! In this episode, I break down how to discern the crap advice from the credible advice that actually helps you find true, committed love.
