How To Know If You’ve Found “The One”: The Science of Soulmates


Listen Later

Do you believe in soulmates? I dive deep into the science to see what really makes love last and share my own love story with my husband, Zack. 

I’ll walk you through the psychological concept of “destiny belief” to what the research actually says about compatibility. You’ll also hear about the “Michelangelo Effect,” the power of values alignment, and what the best predictor of relationship satisfaction is. I’ll also share two questions that have helped me and so many others figure out if a partner is truly “the one.” 

Whether you're dating, partnered, or just reevaluating what love should look like, this episode will help you to see things in a more freeing, empowering way.

We get into:

  • Why our cultural obsession with “the one” might be holding us back
  • The surprising science behind attraction, compatibility, and real connection
  • What actually predicts long-term relationship success (hint: it’s not fate)
  • Two questions that will let you know if someone is truly “your person”
  • Ready to uplevel every part of your life? Order Liz’s book 100 Ways to Change Your Life: The Science of Leveling Up Health, Happiness, Relationships & Success now!
