Run Your Money Show

In today’s show, my caller is unsure of how to ask for what she wants and needs in her relationship without being bitchy or naggy. She’s also got these other questions swirling through her head:

• “Is he right for me?”
• “How can I ask for what I want without trying to change him?”
• “What’s happening long term in this relationship?”

All of these questions can feel overwhelming and cloud the issue at hand which, getting what she needs.

It’s been a while since I took you behind the curtains of my life to see what I’m loving. In this episode, I’m talking you through what I’m reading and listening to (hardly any self-help!), what I’m watching (I need your opinions, please!), what I’m eating, and my favorite apps.

I hope these recommendations provide some inspiration and fun, and I think many of them will also help with your growth! I’m introducing a new segment onto the podcast!

I’ve been running the Love Incubator and Love Action Tribe for a couple months now, and from my own experience, I know that listening to other people being coached can be just as powerful as being coached yourself.

So, a couple of times a month, I’m inviting a woman from the Love Action Tribe onto the show to be coached by me. I officially have my own call in show! Woot woot.

Anyways, our first caller asks a question I know many of you have: how do I know if I should stay or leave? We go deep into the situationship my caller is in, but the answer may not be what you expect.

We often hear the only constant is change. There’s definitely truth to that, but the detrimental part of that is when we go looking for that stability solely in relationships. Sure enough, you’re likely to find yourself in codependent, toxic relationships.

The good news is, you can find that stability within yourself with the moon. You see, we live in a 24-hour cycle world, but as women, we aren’t wired like that. The 24 hour cycle can feel exhausting and overwhelming.

Unfortunately, we don’t have much of a choice when it comes to getting out of that, but by syncing in with your 28-day clock of your body and the moon, you can find the energy to make it work so you feel grounded, aligned, and energized.

In today’s episode, I answer three listener questions. I periodically will make a call for listener questions, usually on my Instagram page, so if you’re not following me, make sure you do that so you can submit your question next time. You can follow me at @veronicaegrant.

I LOVE the questions that you all submitted to me, and I’m super excited that one of the questions came from a man! The questions are on getting over an ex (even when you know it would’ve never worked out), how to fix a toxic and codependent relationship, and how to date as a feminist when most men are not.

Lots of juicy stuff. Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Two often overlooked reasons you’re not getting over an ex, even though you logically know it’d never work out
• The MOST important thing to do to “fix” a codepedent relationship
• Where the feminist movement got it wrong and why it’s making dating totally sucky

​I hear from friends and clients all.the.time. about how to be more feminine. It’s a good question, an important one, and I know that my body of work has certainly been a part of this wider conversation.

I was at an incredible retreat last week with my coach and mastermind in Santa Fe, and I had a huge, massive, a-ha about our power and masculine energy. When I tell you, it might seem so “duh,” but I’m gonna bet you’ve been missing this.

I know I've been.​

Just for the moment, I want you to forget about “being more feminine.” Forget about flow, being receptive, vulnerability, blah blah all those feminine energy things.

And let’s just focus on the masculine.

I’ve worked with enough women to know that sometimes when someone is describing a current or past relationship, I know when they are describing it through rose colored glasses.

I want to be clear that I don’t want to invalidate how you felt or are feeling in a relationship. It’s a cornerstone of my coaching and how I teach my clients to treat themselves.

Look, obviously things happen, but I’m very skeptical when I hear stories around being blindsided. Yes, that might have been your experience, but to the outside eye, there were probably a lot more signs.

Knowing what’s actually love and what isn’t will help you to protect yourself from being blindsided in the future.

think it’s common if you’re struggling in love to get sent into the world of personal development pretty quickly. I love personal development, but it’s really important to understand the nuances of it and how human growth works. Otherwise, it’s easy to get stuck or feel like you’re doing the work but nothing is changing.

Perhaps you’ve built some awareness as to how your childhood is having a direct effect on who you’re attracting. But you’re still attracting narcissists!

That’s because the awareness is there, which is important, but it’s not the only step, and it certainly isn’t the last step.

One thing that drove me craaaaaazy when I was single was talking about my love problems to my other non-single friends who either didn’t struggle the way I did or had been in a relationship for a while and forgot what it was really like.

Obviously their words and advice were well meaning, they’d always say, “It just wasn’t meant to be. And you’ll meet him when you least expect it.”

Ahhh, I would have rather poked my eyeballs out then hear that again.

While I don’t really think that this advice is good or true, there is truth behind it, and in this episode, I break it down.

When I hop on the phone with a potential client one of their frustrations/questions they ask me if they’re being too picky.

Sometimes someone told them that they’re being too picky or they draw that conclusion themselves after countless dates just feel meh or even if they’re bored with everyone they meet.

And there’s so much fear around this question. Because they want me to tell them that they’re not being too picky… otherwise perhaps their worst fear will come up

They’ll worry that they’ll have to choose between staying single, or worse, settling.

And look, I don’t know exactly what’s on your “list” of needs, desires, and wants in a man and a relationship, but I do want to say this:

You’re more than likely not being picky,

BUT…

I think you’re asking yourself the wrong question.
