Reinventing the Arena

Welcome back to the podcast! After an unplanned but refreshing summer sabbatical, I’m excited to bring you a short summer series. Over the next eight weeks, we'll dive into 10 to 15-minute episodes on various topics inspired by my clients, participants of the Man of Your Spreadsheet Dreams course, and personal experiences.

In today’s episode, we explore the profound impact of authenticity on our lives and relationships. We’ll start with a grounding box-breathing exercise to help you center yourself. Then, we’ll delve into recognizing and embracing your authentic self, particularly in the context of dating and relationships.

Listen in as we discuss:

- The significance of authenticity in building deeper, more meaningful connections.

- Practical exercises to identify and amplify your authentic moments.

- The ripple effect of showing up as your true self.

- Insights from Dr. Brené Brown's book The Gifts of Imperfection on the daily practice of authenticity.

Whether you’re single, dating, or in a committed relationship, this episode offers valuable tools to help you show up as your genuine self and foster authentic connections with those around you.

If you haven’t already, be sure to check out Episode 101 on the Law of Attraction for additional context.

Thank you for listening! Your journey towards authenticity starts now.

Don't you love it when you hear a man say, "Let's just see where this goes?" 

Yeah,... me neither!

In this episode, I discuss the importance of not downplaying what you want in a relationship and yourself.

Plus, I provide a step-by-step method for addressing the lack of commitment and self reflection questions to tackle the self sabotaging behavior of going with the flow when all you really want is a committed relationship.

Do you enjoy the podcast? Leave me a review on Apple Podcasts! Later this summer I will start drawing podcast reviews to share on an episode. If I share yours you will win something I have not announced yet!

Get ready for another couch conversation where Brad joins me not only to talk about my Spreadsheet, but he looks at it in depth with me during the show.

You’ll hear what he thinks about it both when we were first starting to date and even today. 

We go into specific line items on my Spreadsheet to share how they show up within Brad, our relationship and our love life vision.

You’ll hear a few tricky conversations come up such as whether or not to have kids, financial situations, and even the topic of politics - because all of it was in my Spreadsheet.

Plus, Brad shares a few stories about his dating life including one deal breaker with one of those tricky conversations.

Modern romantic relationships aren’t like your parents or even your grandparents relationships, even if they tell you they “should” be.

Do any of these sound familiar to you?

To be loved, you must be love.

Like attracts Like. 

Positive thoughts bring positive results.

The law of attraction is one most popular universal law especially when it comes to love and manifestation. But what if I told you that it’s not worth the hype?

What if I told you that the law of attraction is actually holding you back from the relationship you want?

In today’s episode I bring up the law of attraction because it’s a pattern I have seen in my clients. They want to attract the man they desire into their life.

I share definitions of the law of attraction, my beliefs and opinions around it, and scientific research about a different law that will help you shift towards your authentic self in order to attract the man who is right for you.
