Welcome to the official kickoff of the Worthy in Love podcast tour! Every day during the next two and half weeks, you’ll learn about some of my favorite podcasts covering relationships and personal growth. These experts have their own experiences, specialties, and flavors that can support you in discovering how to feel worthy in love.

Speaking of feeling worthy... worthiness and confidence often get conflated as the same thing. But they’re not. So in this quick episode, I want to clear up the confusion and talk about the difference between the two.

1:16 - How this podcast tour will work

2:58 - The surprising way confidence can affect awareness of your worthiness

4:02 - How the self-worth wound is universal and affects your relationships

5:42 - How I demonstrated a huge disconnection between my confidence and self-worthiness

8:17 - Why self-worth and confidence have very little to do with each other

11:00 - How to get a true view of where your self-worth is at right now

As of the recording of today’s episode, there’s an ongoing crisis with COVID and Afghanistan. These current events might have you feeling a little down. Even though I can’t know what the state of the world will be by the time you listen to this episode, I wanted to lighten things up and talk about something a bit more fun. I also think a little fun is appropriate with my upcoming podcast tour fast approaching. So today, I share three TV shows/movies, three podcasts, and three Instagram accounts I love, plus some other entertaining resources.

9:15 - The humorous TV show with a theme around the power of kindness you must watch

10:48 - The rare movie that I just had to finish watching

12:56 - The TV show all about creating beautiful and functional backyard spaces

14:12 - The first podcast I can’t get enough of (and how it relates to baseball and The Bachelor)

16:23 - The podcast that tells you little know stories about American history, from Washington to Walt Disney, and how they tie into current events

19:43 - The podcast hosted by two famous people with nothing in common with each other

21:29 - The funny Instagram account that makes me appreciate my current home state all the more

22:35 - The poetic astrology IG account you’ll enjoy reading when you wake up

25:17 - Astrologist recommendations and the app that’s far more accurate than your horoscope

27:16 - A few other things I love that you might find pleasure in too

Over the last few months, I’ve frequently mentioned pop culture and how it has impacted our love lives. It affects people’s perceptions of men, women, love, sex, and relationships. It can also enforce beliefs and normalize power dynamics between men and women, some of which are unhealthy. In this episode, I discuss one particular unhealthy dynamic involving The Bachelorette’s Katie Thurston and Greg Grippo in hopes that it’ll help you identify shitty behavior and take appropriate action when and if it happens to you.

9:52 - How you can watch The Bachelorette episode in question for yourself

11:38 - A quick overview of the situation and the first red flag I see

16:39 - The more subtle, manipulative exchange between Katie and Greg on the couch

22:14 - First sign of someone trying to manipulate or gaslight you

23:52 - How Greg continues to emotionally manipulate Katie in the conversation

25:52 - Why what Greg does is gaslighting and how the TV network influences perception of the situation

28:30 - What healthy love is and is NOT and what Greg actually loved about Katie 

30:03 - More boundaries that cross the line into unhealthy, gaslight-y territory

33:08 - Power plays and the moment Katie starts to see what’s going on and tries to take her power back

39:22 - Recapping the kind of red flag behaviors I saw for you to be on the lookout for

44:05 - Why I don’t go as far as to call Greg an abuser

No matter the age, everyone believes that they’re too old for something. Twenty and thirty-something year-olds think they’re getting too long in the tooth to get married and start a family. Those in their 40s or 50s believe they’re too old to meet someone new, and seniors just plain think they’re too old for everything, period. Time’s always running out!

While this doesn’t have to be true, so many of us take it on as our truth. We see the number that is our age and attach a story to it as if it were real. Melissa has taken on these kinds of beliefs. She feels she’s too old, too busy, and too tired for a relationship. So in this episode, I help her get to the root of why her beliefs are there in the first place.

8:38 - Melissa describes her situation and reveals her relationship fear

12:12 - What’s really keeping Melissa from spending the time and energy on dating

17:53 - Getting to the core of what Melissa’s beliefs are really about

21:12 - What Melissa needs to do to build up trust in herself for a relationship

26:00 - The surprising question I ask clients who see some part of themselves as a problem

29:05 - The difference between dating from a fearful vs. trustful place

31:10 - How Melissa can best practice self-forgiveness

37:23 - Why I don’t believe in the idea of mistakes and recapping key points from the coaching call

40:55 - Your action steps from this episode

I get asked about matchmaking recommendations a lot. But not only did I have no one to recommend, I honestly didn’t even know if I liked the concept...until I met Sarah Louise Ryan. Sarah is an international matchmaker from the United Kingdom who I formed a bond with earlier this year. I like her approach because she combines the practical with the intuitive. 

So with her focus on outer work and my focus on inner work, our combined approaches actually complement each other well. In fact, this episode serves as an introduction to her and a way for you to see if you like her style and energy before we hold our joint workshop in September. Today, Sarah talks about how she matches her clients and what all’s involved in matchmaking, including the four biggest dating mistakes people make. 

6:31​ - The #1 thing Sarah’s learned about matchmaking, dating, and relationships

9:08 - Some advice for those who have a shopping list of attributes they seek in a partner

11:18 - What Sarah’s matchmaking company does, how it works, and how to apply

22:42 - The biggest dating mistakes Sarah sees her clients make

26:26 - The best way to approach dating disappointments, rejections, and failures

30:27 - Giving you a little taste of what Sarah and I will talk about in the September 19th workshop

Humans are complex. We're good at achieving workplace or financial goals or any area of our lives with clear, linear steps. But we stumble when it comes to personal development or relationships. There’s too much nuance, emotion, and involvement of other people in those areas to follow the linear path, yet we try to anyway.

My coaching call with Patty today really highlights this. She wants to know how to stop feeling jealous of friends in relationships. If you’ve been listening to this show for awhile, though, you know there’s more going on than meets the eye. So I help her dissect a lot of it in this episode.

9:02 - The real point behind diving into what you feel you didn’t have as a child

15:05 - What trusting other people really comes down to

21:05 - The various layers underlying Patty’s lack of trust in men

26:51 - How fear has played into Patty’s trust issues since childhood and how she can overcome it

32:48 - My controversial take on breakups that seemingly happen out of nowhere

35:41 - An invitation for Patty to imagine a different scenario

41:39 - Why jealousy can be such a difficult emotion to eliminate

43:19 - Winding down with a recap of the 3 big themes discussed with Patty

What do Britney Spears, Meghan Markle, Rachel Lindsay, and I have in common? Believe it or not, you have it in common too. In today’s episode, I reveal an insidious influence on all women’s thoughts and emotions while in the dating phase and how it keeps us stuck in behavioral patterns that affect our relationships. Being aware of it and keeping it in mind is the first step to unconventionally stay calm in the early stages of a relationship.

Attachment theory books are popular, and they’re mentioned to me all the time. I think attachment style and personality quizzes can be powerful tools for healing and learning about yourself. However, they can also hold you back by preventing you from gaining clarity around what you actually need to heal, grow, and shift your relationship patterns. Today’s coaching call with Sabrina reveals this paradox, so listen in as I help her get to the real heart of her attachment anxiety issues.

3:00 - How Sabrina identifies with being anxiously attached

7:33 - Something that can block you from changing your pattern

13:30 - Sabrina keys in on defining who she is (in or out of a relationship)

25:58 - A discovery made when diving into the world of 6-year-old Sabrina

Do you repeatedly attract emotionally unavailable people? Or are you the type to push away, get bored with, or look for something wrong with emotionally available partners? Depending on the amount of inner work you’ve done, you might have some emotional availability tendencies worth looking at.

But when I ask people about this, I get a lot of different reactions. So in this episode, I discuss what emotional availability is and isn’t and walk you through an assessment I’ve created so you can see if you’re emotionally available for the relationship you want right now. 

4:26 - Exposing a big myth around emotional unavailability for relationships

7:30 - The 4 things I see attracting emotionally unavailable people to my clients repeatedly

At some point, you’ve probably heard something like, “You need to strengthen your intuition.” Well, I’m not a believer in the need for us to find or strengthen our intuition. We just need to uncover the noise we pick up from our family, pop culture, and society at large that keeps it hidden from us.

Today’s episode is all about trusting yourself and getting beyond the noise. In this coaching call with Lynn, I walk her through an exercise to reveal what her intuition has to say about her relationship. You can do the same and follow through on fearlessly trusting your intuition in your love life.

5:59 - What it looks like to make dating decisions from your brain vs. your intuition

7:48 - A family history behind why Lynn doesn’t trust her intuition

12:46 - What 5-year-old Lynn felt she had to do to stay safe

29:26 - The real-world action step Lynn must take

32:18 - A summary of the breakthroughs from the coaching call with Lynn

37:37 - Your action steps for fearlessly trusting  and following through on your intuition
