In this episode, I sit down with Miles Olson to explore what years of being single can teach you about love, loneliness, self-understanding, and personal power. We talk about the withdrawal-like feeling that can come after a relationship ends, how solitude can redirect your energy into creativity, family, nature, and deeper self-connection, and why being alone does not have to mean being empty.We also dive into emotional honesty, vulnerability, intuition, boundaries, pornography, dating apps, nature, flow state, writing, and the importance of creating from a place of truth. This conversation is about learning how to sit with yourself, listen to your inner signals, stop outsourcing connection to artificial sources, and become more grounded before stepping into deeper relationships.Timestamps:0:00 Being single for years2:23 Finding love outside relationships4:42 Being single at 20 vs later in life6:38 Hookup culture and taking space10:12 Learning to trust intuition13:19 Knowing if you’re ready for a relationship15:04 Relationships that add power vs drain power17:52 Opening up to your partner20:43 Honesty, vulnerability, and emotional responsibility23:23 Rejection as clarity26:09 Quitting pornography27:52 Nature, purity, and noticing the contrast29:24 The dark side of the porn industry31:04 How porn affects intimacy and desire34:03 Why porn is so hard to quit37:30 Porn, pleasure, and false connection41:44 The hidden cost of porn46:16 Porn as a drug-like experience50:43 Healing through emotional work54:02 Rebuilding confidence after inner work55:09 Nature, creativity, and reconnecting to life57:51 Flow state through music and walking1:01:38 Writing books and authentic expression1:05:54 Sharing vulnerable work publicly1:08:28 Where to find Miles Olson#dating #love #relationships #relationshipgoals #spirituality
