This is part one of a two-part series. We are going to start today by talking about three ways to manifest what you want more of in your life (including available potential partners). In a few weeks on episode 184, I’ll break down why you’re already a great manifester. You’re just manifesting emotionally unavailable partners.

Today though I want to start with the three ways to manifest more of what you want.

We (yes, I have a guest this week) are here for week 2 of The Bachelor in Paradise Recap. 

I’m joined by Emily Cassel, my friend and a soulful business and leadership coach for female entrepreneurs.

You don’t have to want to be in a relationship.

But what makes me sad is when women tell me they don’t want to be in a relationship because relationships drain them.

Relationships are supposed to feel uplifting.

Yes, there are introverts and extroverts, so you may need varying levels of human interaction, but if you’re dating or are in relationships and they feel heavy or draining, something deeper is going on.

My caller today wants to know why she feels so drained and overwhelmed almost immediately when she goes online to potentially meet people. She sizes men up on religious preferences and a whole slew of checklist items. Then of course, if she does meet up with the person, she tries to please and conform to what they want.

So if you…

• Feel immediately overwhelmed dating, even after a dating break
• Size people up, and think no one is quite right
• Don’t feel 100% comfortable being yourself

Yes, you read that right!

This isn’t a Bachelor recap show that’s pop culture-y or gives you a play-by-play of each moment. There are plenty of other delicious podcasts that do that.

Instead, I break down three “situationships” from each episode and turn them into teachable moments you can apply to your love life. It’s easy to judge and criticize, but the truth is, you’ve experienced most of what the cast on the Bachelor has experienced. It’s just without all the cameras and Instagram followers berating you.

In addition to breaking down three key situationships, I’m also giving out roses! Patriarchy roses, that is. There’s a lot to love about the Bachelor franchise, but there’s also a lot to be critical of. I think have complex feelings about something makes life interesting, and that’s what this show is here for.

Each week of Paradise this month, I’ll bring you recap bonus episodes where I’ll help you look at your own love life different, help you get clear on all the ways patriarchy affects your life, and we’ll have a lot of fun and relish in the guilty pleasure that is the Bachelor franchise.

This episode is inspired by a conversation I’m having with a lot of my clients right now: a dating break.

You might be on a dating break now, and if that’s you, that’s awesome. I still want you to listen to this episode, because a dating break that’ll actually create a change when you do start dating again is a lot more than just netflix and mani/pedis.

Or, maybe you’re on the complete opposite end of the spectrum. You feel like you have no time to waste. Whether you really want to have kids or you don’t want to age alone, I want you to really listen to my case for taking a dating break. The right kind of break could actually help you to meet the RIGHT person FASTER.

You know how when you get out a relationship your kicking yourself because the warning signs and red flags are SO obvious to you now?

They say hindsight is 20/20, but what if you could tap into that power in present time. AND, when you tap into that power, it helps you to create more vulnerability and intimacy with the right person?

This is 100% possible, and it’s a lot easier than you think.

So if you…

• Ignore red flags
• Believe you have a trait that makes it difficult for you to be in a relationship
• Are tired of over-giving and trying so hard in relationships

Then you’ll love this episode!

This episode is a doozy, and we cover so much ground. (Hence the ridiculously long episode title.) In this episode, we jam on everything from how she left a job that she was super successful in that she thought she was “supposed” to like, how she quit dating for a while, healed old wounds, and eventually, found her love.

If you attach yourself to a relationship early on, like waaay before the feelings are really there, then you’re not alone.

Today on the show, my caller Andree-Anne gets wrapped up emotionally and physically with new partners long before there’s any real connection or talk of commitment.

She wants to break that pattern, but isn’t sure how.

So if you…

… Feel like you’re behind in life because all your friends are married or have families...

...Secretly believe you can’t really start living your life until you get into a relationship...

...Wrap your identity up in who you date...

Then you’ll love this episode!

You might be thinking, Veronica, this is a podcast about finding love.

Well, one, you’re the common denominator in your life. AND, if you’re struggling to attract high quality partners, it usually roots down to a problem with your self-worth.

And if you have a problem with your self-worth, it’s almost inevitable that you’ll have a problem with money.

It’s no surprise to me (even though it’s often a surprise for my clients) that when they work with me, they also get promotions, better jobs, more clients, charge more in their business, or even start a side business that wasn’t even a blip on their radar.

That’s because, raise your worth, raise your value. Raise your value people pay you more and people treat you better.

It really can be that straightforward.

Of course, the path to increasing your self-worth can be messy.

So if you…

...Live paycheck to paycheck even though you know you make enough

...Believe you’re destined to not make a lot of money

…Think you never have enough, no matter how much money you actually have 

Then you’ll love this episode!
