Project Love

This week's podcast is inspired by the documentary Miss Representation which takes a look at the damaging impact the media, Hollywood & Disney films are having on women's self-esteem and how we think we need to behave and look to be attractive to the opposite sex. Both Vicki and Selina talk about the power of the film and how it impacted them individually - particularly Selina who was single at the time...

There is an expectation that relationships should be easy and “if you have to work hard at something then maybe it isn’t right”. This week, Alice shares her real love story and shows us just how wrong that is and that the hardest things are often the most rewarding

Here is a snippet of Alice’s advice for single women today who are looking for a healthy and happy relationship:

Love yourself, know your strengths, know what makes you beautiful and be happy in your own dancing shoes!

When it comes to finding a love that will last, we've found that authenticity is absolutely key. So this week we've dived headlong into the topic and dug in to explore and discuss why so many of us so easily fall into the trap of thinking we can't just be ourselves when we're dating and why we need to start giving ourselves permission to be real...because THAT is how we will find love and make it last. This is a juicy one - enjoy!

One of the many challenges of living in this mental city is that we’re so damn busy all the time. Since starting Project Love, one of the many questions we’ve had is, "Is our modern pace of life too fast to support us in our search for love?”

A big part of Getting Ready for Love is slowing down and creating space to invite love into our lives. Breaking free from the emotional baggage of our past and making space for the things we want from our future.
