Tigger? Eeyore? Princess? A closed heart shows up, in many cases, like one of these.

You may not even realize it because it's a kind of behind the scenes "spell" you fall under depending on the condition of your heart.

A closed heart "acts" out as much as an open heart does and THAT, my beautiful lady, affects your love life. How you are with a guy. How you respond, how you see him, sense him, feel him.

It all matters - just like your heart does. Yes! Your longings for love and happiness are incredibly important and deserve to be heard.

What's behind the "identity" you live with? The Stories you tell yourself. Conclusions you jump to because of what kind of things you've walked through on your Life Path - in life and in love.

So...Tigger or Eeyore? Which are you?

Maybe your experience with love has left you feeling as if your heart is Sleeping Beauty, deeply asleep. You have built a thick wall of thorns around your "castle" in order to keep anyone out, not to mentions the Fiery FEAR Dragon that stands guard at the door.

You are hiding from being hurt again. No wonder because hurt is just that - PAIN!

But there is another way to live. It's waking that heart up and bringing it out into the open.  You can begin to do that by learning to R.E.L.A.X. - an acronym that allows you to both stand up for your heart and find a new way to "be" with a man.

Let this little bit of light start to wake you up. Find your courage. This episode will introduce you to what it means to R.E.L.A.X.

Let's wake up your heart to love again in all the ways only YOU can do.

We seem to be on a "running" theme right now with talking about love.

Hey, lovely ladies, who want to be in love but are frustrated with the results of your search... No man "gets" you. No sees your heart. It seems as if you are alone even when you're with someone.

Did you know that feeling this way can be a result of running? It's exhausting. These are the kinds of signs that show up when we are focusing on all we are running from. Such as...our pain.

There s a big difference when we shift to a new way of seeing life - and love. Instead of running from our pain, we can shift to run toward our future. And make it a sun-filled future.

This podcast lays this shift out for you.

I love Chick Flicks! Did you know that romances speak to our hearts because they actually tell us a lot ABOUT our hearts?

Remember Julia Roberts in "Run Away Bride"? What does her Story have to tell you about your heart? About love?

She was trapped in her life. So trapped she kept attracting all the wrong guys. If she had continued to go down the road where she was heading, she would have ended up in a very sad place when she was in the Beyond 50 age range...

Beyond 50 can be a time when we are the most fun, the most fulfilled, the most feisty and feminine. And we can be in love with someone who "gets" us. Our "Ike" - Maggie's man in our Run Away Bride Story.

If you do what she did - your heart will open wide to a love that is going to rock your world.

And the Story continues...the Run Away Bride Story. Last podcast we started talking about one of the most popular chick flicks on the planet.

Her Story is a parallel to many of us who have run away from life (and love) by shutting down our hearts. Hiding. And, saddest of all, believing that we are who others say we are- most of the time without even realizing it.

What Maggie in the Runaway Bride did to re-invent her life (and open her heart to love) is what will also set each of us free.

It's what I did. And we talk about it in today's episode right here.

Just when you least expect it - BAM! They sneak up on you and knock you down. Not only that, but they'll keep you down and sit on your chest for the rest of your life if you"re not careful.

Shame. And her partner: the Fiery FEAR Dragon. These two can be your nemesis OR they can inspire you to simply be human and growing.

They can stop you from opening your heart again OR inspire you to look them both in the eye, tell them whose boss and embrace the fact that YOU are a woman who is REAL and accepts who she is.

You decide.

You are going to wake up every day, afraid of something.

 Stepping into your courage to do something anyway, no matter how much afraid you feel to try something, to go for something, to begin something new, to go towards a dream - that is going to take courage but a courage that is there in the presence of fear.

But there is so much more to your Story - and your heart.

When is a man like a tree stump? Listen and find out... See you in there!
