In today’s episode of Shot At Love, Kerry Brett sits down with manifest mentor Lizzie Moore for an honest, energetic, and unexpectedly hilarious conversation about manifesting love, trusting the universe, and the mantra that changed everything: I only want what’s for me.

Lizzie shares how she transformed her life through visualization, neuroscience-based mindset shifts, and vision boards that quite literally manifested a new home, a new lifestyle, and a new chapter on the South Shore. She breaks down how the Reticular Activating System filters our thoughts, why emotions carry vibrational frequency, and how shifting your energy can change what—and who—you attract.

This episode covers:

If you need hope, humor, and a reminder that the universe delivers what’s meant for you—sometimes in the form of a man building a chicken coop resulting in a little luck and a lot of lumber—this episode is for you.

Your Last First Date: Author & Hollywood Matchmaker Jaydi Samuels Kuba

This week’s episode of Shot At Love pulls back the curtain on Hollywood’s most fascinating matchmaking secrets with Jaydi Samuels Kuba. Inspired by her soon-to-be-released book Your Last First Date, Jaydi shares the patterns, mindsets, blind spots, and tiny shifts that help singles finally find their own Hollywood ending.

Jaydi began her career as a television writer with credits ranging from Family Guy to Salem. But after watching talented, successful women in the entertainment industry struggle to form meaningful relationships, she built a couples-curation service that grew into LJ Matchmaking. Today she is a certified dating and relationship coach, a co-host of the podcast Match Made in Hollywood, and one of the industry’s most respected matchmakers.

Kerry and Jaydi explore the truth behind finding love in Hollywood or anywhere else: why people stay stuck, how they repeat emotional patterns, and what finally creates lasting change. Jaydi opens up about the early days of her company, the unlikely way she met her husband while setting him up with other women, and the inner shifts that helped her leave a long-term relationship that no longer aligned with her life.

Together, they break down why matchmaking matters, why being “findable” is non-negotiable, and how small mindset adjustments can make all the difference. Jaydi shares how she vets clients, screens for compatibility, and guides people toward clarity before chemistry. She explains why great daters still end up in the wrong relationships, how date coaching transforms confidence, and why trusting your own intuition is ultimately your most powerful tool.

Jaydi also gives listeners a behind-the-scenes look at writing Your Last First Date: how her Hollywood storytelling background shaped the narrative, why she chose to teach through character journeys and real client case studies, and what she hopes readers will take away after they close the final page.

If you’ve ever wondered how matchmaking really works, what goes on behind the scenes, or how to stop repeating the same dating patterns, this conversation will shift the way you see yourself, your choices, and your path to love.

Kerry Brett reflects on her own Hero’s Journey—one that mirrors Marty McFly’s in Back to the Future—filled with setbacks, mentors, lessons, and ultimately transformation through love.

This episode is about believing in divine timing, trusting the bigger picture, and having faith that the right person shows up when you’ve done the inner work. Kerry shares how her “Great Scott” moment came when she found love on Tinder, and how every heartbreak, misstep, and “Biff” along the way shaped her into someone ready for a healthy, lasting relationship.

Through pop culture parallels, wisdom from her mentor Jeff Lubin, and her signature storytelling style, Kerry ties it all together—reminding listeners that everyone’s path to love is their own version of the Hero’s Journey. It’s about choosing courage over comfort, learning to love yourself first, and understanding that each swipe, each setback, and each lesson gets you closer to your own “Great Scott” moment.

If you’ve ever doubted that love is possible after heartbreak, this episode will inspire you to believe again. Because when you trust in the bigger picture and take your shot, you just might find the one who was meant for you all along.

In this episode of Shot At Love, host Kerry Brett shares her unforgettable story of finding love on the commuter rail. This journey starts with a swipe and turns into a cinematic night worthy of Risky Business and Dirty Dancing.

From lip gloss disasters and “walks of shame” to lessons in faith, mindset, and perseverance, Kerry reminds listeners that taking chances in love — and life — often comes with a few unexpected detours. But when you stay open, trust yourself, and keep believing, miracles can happen… even on the rails.

By the end, Kerry reveals how this once “risky” date led to her real-life love story and how her journey on Tinder became proof that manifestation works — if you’re willing to believe, take action, and never quit.

Breaking Up with Mr. Better Than Nothing – Why You Need This Episode

If you’ve ever dated someone who felt promising enough to stick around even when the red flags were waving… this episode is for you. We break down a real relationship timeline so you can recognize the exact moments things shift from exciting to exhausting — and learn how to pivot sooner next time.

Cupid showed up, the texts sparkled, and the chemistry felt easy—until the small tells started stacking up. We share a true dating story that begins with a glittering reconnection and veers into a tour of red flags: venue choices that miss the mark, a harsh snap at strangers that reveals character, grand declarations too early, then silence when it matters. The ride is funny, messy, and painfully familiar to anyone who’s been love-bombed, breadcrumbed, or nudged into the caretaker role before the relationship ever had roots.

As we walk through the timeline—from an “epic” wedding meet-cute to an OKCupid rematch, from a chaotic holiday bar scene to a broken arm that flips romance into housework—we unpack how social proof can lower your guard and how mixed signals can chip away at self-worth. You’ll hear the golden rule that never fails in dating: watch how they treat service staff and unexpected guests. You’ll also hear the moment the power shifts back: no more waiting by the phone, a night out that rekindles confidence, and the clarity to name what’s actually happening—a situationship with one driver and no room for your voice.

This conversation blends story and strategy so you leave with a practical toolkit: how to spot unintentional daters, how to separate charm from character, and how to protect your time with clean boundaries. We keep it real, we keep it human, and yes, we laugh at the clown car along the way. If you’re tired of “better than nothing,” press play, reclaim your standards, and choose the quieter path of self-respect over the noisy comfort of chaos.

This episode follows a winding road from mantras and angel numbers to a surprising Tinder reunion that reopens old memories and reveals hard truths about trust, red flags, and values. Trust—not trying harder—becomes the real compass in dating, and 222 serves as a reminder to slow down and practice patient awareness.

Nostalgia collides with present-day realities as Boston’s social energy masks a poor fit, and Jonathan’s candid warning becomes a pivotal values check. A serendipitous moment with Fishman’s mom reassures me that when we’re paying attention, the universe delivers the clarity we need.

Through caregiving challenges, ghosting, and even street harassment, resilience rises — leading to a powerful promise: Listen sooner. Set boundaries. Choose self-respect.

If you’re rebuilding after heartbreak, this chapter reminds you that every sign points you forward.
