Are you leading with loneliness? Let’s find out! Today’s guest is Annie Parker. She’s a Reiki Master, Hypnotherapist, and Intuitive Healer, who helps you clear blocks from the past so you can be a magnet for love. In this week’s episode, she’ll teach you how to regain your power, close that door on an ex and make room for your future and use your intuition when dating to attract the love you deserve.

Remove feelings of lack and loneliness because sometimes, when swiping, it feels like you have many options, but there’s a difference between perceived options and a real authentic connection. It all depends on your mindset and energy when dating, how you feel about yourself, and what’s truly possible for you. 

Annie Parker is a Reiki Master, Theta Healer, and Shamanic Practitioner that focuses on cord-cutting, soul retrieval, and chakra clearing so you can break through the generational patterns and trauma of the past and move into the life and love that you desire. She focuses on clearing any resentments and ties from past relationships so you can make room for new love. She’s part of the Single in the City Mod Squad on Clubhouse and in August will be hosting and joining Matchmaker Laura Bilotta in the live workshop “Become a Magnet for Love.”

Kerry Brett and Annie Parker cover a lot of ground. Topics include:
*How you can take your power back and take your pain from a breakup and turn it into something positive.
*Why it’s so important to clear all of the resentments from a former relationship.
*How to avoid dating for potential.
*How to get your mind and energy on the same page.
*How to release energies that don’t serve you anymore.
*How to cut cords with ourselves and our perceived failures.
*How to trust yourself and listen to your intuition.
*How to drop the energetic shield in front of our hearts so you can be a magnetic from love.
*Why the energy around money and love is one of the same energetic.
*Why people have trouble receiving money, compliments or love and how to open up the heart space so you can give and receive.
*Why getting your energy aligned helps you listen to your intuition.
*How to avoid having your emotions overrun your intuition and look at what is really happening.
*How to avoid leading with loneliness and approach dating from a place of abundance.
*Your energy around dating always comes down to how you feel about yourself.
*Any time you question someone – if it’s not a hell yes, it’s a hell no!
*People must have the same values; you don’t have to like the same things, but you must have the same values. If you’re clear about what you want, then the trash will take itself out.
*How to work on having good energy about yourself. When you feel good and look good, you’ll get noticed.

Do you think your life needs to be perfect to find love? This is not true, and today's episode will prove otherwise while instilling hope in humanity and changing your negative beliefs around online dating. Sometimes life throw's so many things at you that it's impossible to handle them on your own, and when you think things can't get any worse, you can catch a break, and an amazing knight in shining armor can ride up on a horse because you swiped right! This week's guest is my oldest friend Kristine Brennan, and her journey and love story are unbelievably inspirational. In this week's episode, Kristine shares tips around online dating and all of the mistakes she made until she finally got it right!

Kristine Brennan is a full-time nurse and a divorced mother of three who grew up in a coastal town called Hingham, just outside of Boston. Kristine had no idea she had Lyme disease when she was pregnant with her children until she passed it in utero to her kids. Her oldest, Delaney, has been dealing with debilitating symptoms for most of her childhood. She's spent years on crutches and in a wheelchair and has suffered too many procedures and hospitalizations. Kristine has taken her all over the country, trying to get Delaney well while paying out of pocket as a single mother. These trips for treatments forced Kristine to be on her fourth family medical leave. Lyme disease has deteriorated and weakened Delaney's immune system; she only tolerates her hydration and nutrition through a feeding tube. Delaney's younger brother and sister also have congenital Lyme and are treated by a homeopathic practice in California. Insurance does not cover Lyme Disease, which creates havoc and financial hardship in your life. A Go Fund Me has been established to help the Brennan family, and I will share details later on how to donate. 

During all of these incredible challenges, Kristine kept going, searching for a cure, and finding love online throughout all of these personal challenges. I'm excited to share Kristine's unbelievable story of love, strength, and resilience!

Kerry Brett and Kristine Brennan cover a lot of ground. Topics include;
Tips for finding a nice guy online.
How to look for what's truly important.
How to make shifts within yourself to pull in a great person.
Why not prioritizing what you're looking for in a partner is a big mistake.
Why bitterness has no place in online dating.
Pay attention to the men who write long and caring messages – this is a sign of someone serious about finding a relationship.
Kristine's dating advice for busy working parents.
How to look for someone who makes your life easier.
How to stop caring what other people think. Is he shorter than you? Who cares? Don't have so many rules that look good to others but make you feel bad about yourself.
What are the boxes that you're looking to check? How many of those boxes are based solely on looks or on other people's opinions as opposed to what you think you deserve or makes you happy.

Please contribute to the Go Fund Me fundraiser on behalf of Delaney's Journey. Kristine and Delaney are traveling for treatments in the hopes that this will finally put an end to the debilitating symptoms that she has been suffering for most of her childhood. All of these costs are out pocket as Lyme Disease is not covered by medical insurance, and Kristine is on her fourth (unpaid) medical leave. I hope that we can ease some of the financial burdens that has been accumulated over the past decade. We appreciate any support you can give – no amount is too small. You can make donations at www.gofundme.com and search Delaney's Journey. And with your help - one day we'll be able to say Delaney is cured by your caring and kindness. The Brennan family thanks you in advance from the bottom of their hearts.

Today, we'll discuss fascinating psychological insights from psychologist Richard DiNapoli, who has 30 years of experience helping is clients in the area of relationships. A psychologist studies how we think, behave and feel. His job is to listen to people’s issues and guide them accordingly, but you don't need a Ph.D to be a good listener; trust your instincts, feelings, or emotions. In this week’s episode, Rich will share his expertise around the tell tale question why did your last relationship end? What’s said and not said is very revealing and significant when looking for a new partner. Why people overlook red flags and don’t listen to their intuition. Rich also shares what he’s learned on his dating journey and tips for setting up boundaries and expectations. And the importance of being transparent and open. 

Richard DiNapoli is a psychologist who works predominately with adults and relationship issues. He has been trained in family systems as well as psychodynamic and narrative therapies. He has also been trained in psychodrama and has incorporated his work in theatrical improvisation into his psychotherapy practice. Today’s discussion is all about what can be learned from what’s said and not said in the answer to the question what went wrong in your last relationship. 

Kerry Brett and Rich DiNapoli cover a lot of ground. Topics include;

The importance of finding out why past relationships ended.
Unhealthy and unhealed issues regarding relationships. The classic possibilities are pursuing unavailable partners such as someone emotionally unavailable or married. Rescuing others in distress. Looking for a caretaker. Driven by the need to be in control and minimize vulnerability. 
Why you should never work harder than your date.
Why you shouldn’t try convince or talk someone into dating you or  continue to date you – if they’re not sure – it’s not your job to change their mind. If they are in conflict that conflict has healed within themselves.
Don’t be too enthusiastic, over the top, or have a pre-established happily ever after storyline because then you’re putting the cart the horse.

This week is part two of The Ultimate Funny Guy’s Survival Guide for Hard Times with comedian and actor Lenny Clarke. In part one, Lenny shared his story of finding fame and fortune then losing it all. At one point he had more than he could ever dream. He remembers standing on his roof in Marina Del Ray overlooking the canal, having everything money could buy but he wasn’t happy. He was morally and spiritually bankrupt. His hit sitcom Lenny got cancelled, his health was deteriorating, and his marriage was falling apart. In this episode Lenny shares how he found the strength to get sober, believe in himself and find love. We all go through difficult times, but it will get easier, but we need to hang on in order to get there. And why we can’t quit five minutes before the miracle. Lenny shares his strategies for moving forward, healing a broken heart and why we all deserve and can achieve happiness. 

Lenny Clarke is one of the biggest names in comedy. Aside from his roles in television and films, Lenny is a person who would do anything for someone who was hurting. Lenny’s been interviewed by Talk Show Host Jimmy Kimmel on Jimmy Kimmel Live! And by podcaster Joe Rogan, the host of The Joe Rogan Experience so it’s an honor to have him back on Shot@Love. 

Kerry Brett and Lenny Clarke cover a lot of ground. Topics include;
Why when you’re not looking for love – love finds you.
Give someone a compliment and encourage someone else because there’s not enough of that! Think about the time when you were at your lowest point and someone was kind to you – pay it forward and do the same for someone else.
We all go through bad times, but it will get easier. You got to hang in there, and you can’t quit five minutes before the miracle.
Nothing will fulfill you but you. Take from Lenny who learned that fame or money wasn’t enough – you have to realize that you are enough – just the way you are.
