STRIPPED: Drop Your Patterns

"It’s Not You… It’s Me" - Why You Keep Being Almost Chosen


Listen Later

There’s an exhaustion that comes from modern dating — not from clear rejection, but from being almost chosen.

From building connection and momentum, only to hear some version of:
“You’d make a great partner… just not for me.”

In this episode of STRIPPED: Drop Your Patterns, we explore why this experience repeats for so many people — and why adjusting your behavior, communication style, or “energy” rarely fixes it.

This conversation goes beneath dating advice and into the patterns your nervous system brings into connection — the beliefs, expectations, and self-protective strategies that quietly shape attraction and attachment. I even share my lived experience creating and eventually breaking my own patterns. 

If you’ve ever felt like dating keeps leading you to the same emotional ending, this episode will help you understand why — and what actually creates a different outcome.

At the end of the episode, I also share details about something I’ve been hinting at over the past few weeks and am opening TOMORROW for a very small group of listeners.

Doors close Friday.

If you’ve ever thought, “This always happens to me,” this episode is for you.

 

Reflect: What part of you is bracing for disappointment before it actually happens?
