Allison feels nervous. In the past, she’d get physical in a relationship quickly and it’d fizzle out after three months. However, she just started dating someone who seems to be emotionally available, and she wants to set herself up for success. But she’s afraid she’ll mess it up somehow. 

On this coaching call, I discuss the so-called dating playbook, physical and emotional intimacy and how the two of them work together, and when’s the right time to talk about sex in a new relationship. If that sounds interesting or like something you struggle with too, then you’ll want to listen up and take notes!

I have lots of opinions about self-love. Even though I believe inner child work (and any kind of self-care) is ultimately about self-love, I’ve also steered away from using the phrase. The way it’s often presented on social media lacks nuance. So I want to dive into it a little bit today and reveal my four-part framework to help you understand what it means to “love yourself” and get a better sense of whether or not you do.

3:28 - The Todd Herman quote that also describes the Instagramification of self-love well

5:36 - Something that gets lost in the #selflove talk and a popular “love yourself” mantra that doesn’t really work

11:00 - Why the first piece of my self-love framework is the cornerstone for everything

15:15 - Ways people tend to bypass or ignore the next framework piece (this is an area where self-help can trip you up)

18:41 - Why the third part of the framework makes it easier to heal

22:41 - Why the final framework piece ties back to the first and makes it easier to trust other people

25:36 - What you can do if you struggle to recognize your intuition

28:31 - Quick recap of my self-love framework

You’ve done tons of inner child work and have gone through therapy. You meditate, write your morning pages, and do all kinds of other stuff. And it’s helped you grow in several areas of your life. Your health is good, your career thrives, and your friendships flourish.

We’ve all likely dealt with stressing around money at some point. If you’re living under constant money stress, it can keep you up at night.

Now, there’s the fear with literally not having enough money in your bank account and you’ve got bills to pay. But that’s not the kind of money stress I mean. What about when the money is in your account and you have a good job or business to keep it flowing, but you still feel the stress?

Just like being in codependent relationships or repeating people-pleasing patterns can wreak havoc on your emotions and sense of self-worth, your money stories can serve a similar function. So in this episode, I really want to talk about my broad framework for clearing money blocks that you can use to heal your financial shit.

9:53 - How I define the word “block” (of any kind) and examples of my former money blocks

12:34 - The fluid way you can work with my four-part framework

13:08 - Discussing the first part of the framework 

17:58 - How Suze Orman stressed me out and Ramit Sethi helped me de-stress

24:04 - Rethinking how money can help you have a life you want to live

26:40 - Why you’ll probably want to revisit the second part of the framework every year

27:57 - Part three of the framework: the B word and how it gives you so much freedom

37:43 - Money as an energetic exchange and a prevalent belief about money and work

45:04 - Why purpose and passion aren’t necessarily the same thing

47:48 - Recapping the four parts and why I wanted to share this episode at this time
