The Adored Woman- Dating and relationship advice for women episodes

  • 12. Would You Let A Friend Talk To You Like That? Self worth, dating, and why the relationship you have with yourself changes everything

    Before you can attract a good man who truly adores you, there is one relationship that needs to come first. The one you have with yourself.

    In this episode, relationship coach for women Naomie Thompson opens with a story that will stop you in your tracks — a woman on a date who, in her darkest moment, becomes her own worst enemy. And the question that follows: would you ever let a friend speak to you that way?

    This episode is for every woman who has ever been unkind to herself in the privacy of her own mind. Who has been dating in her 40s wondering why she keeps attracting the same kind of man. Who finds emotionally unavailable men magnetic and consistently available men somehow boring. Who has settled gradually and quietly because somewhere deep down she didn't believe she deserved the full thing.

    These are not dating problems. They are self worth problems. And the good news is — self worth can be rebuilt. This episode shows you how.

    Whether you're dating after divorce, trying to break unhealthy relationship patterns, or simply ready to stop the cycle and start attracting healthy relationships, this episode will give you real, practical tools to shift the most important relationship in your love life — the one with yourself.

    We cover:

    • Why your self worth and relationships are more connected than you think

    • How the inner voice you've normalised is showing up in the men you attract — with real life examples

    • Why emotionally unavailable men feel like home — and how to change that

    • How loving the difficult, messy parts of yourself is the most magnetic thing you can do

    • Two simple daily practices any woman can start today to rebuild self worth from the inside out

  • 11. Hearing His No, Signs he's not right for you — and what happens when you finally stop ignoring them

    Hearing His No Signs he's not right for you — and what happens when you finally stop ignoring them

    Do you keep attracting emotionally unavailable men? Find yourself ignoring red flags because you don't want to face the truth? This episode is for you.

    In this episode, relationship coach Naomie Thompson explores one of the most overlooked skills in dating and relationships — hearing his no. Not just the word, but all the ways a man signals he's not right for you through his actions, his avoidance, and the things he tells you without ever saying them out loud.

    Drawing on her own experience of recovering after an affair and rebuilding her love life from the ground up, Naomie shares what it really means to stop fighting what's in front of you — and what becomes possible when you do.

    Whether you're dating in your 40s, navigating a difficult relationship, or trying to break unhealthy relationship patterns once and for all, this episode will help you get honest about what you've been ignoring — and reconnect with what you actually desire.

    We cover:

    • The many ways a man says no without using the word — and why we miss it

    • Why trying to convince him is actually pushing him further away

    • What it means when he says yes with his mouth and no with his actions

    • How hearing his no leads you straight to your own standards and self worth

    • The question every woman needs to ask: what have I been ignoring?

  • 10. Is It Really Going to Happen For Me? A conversation about finding the right man — even after a lifetime of the wrong relationships

    If you're dating in your 40s and wondering whether it's really going to happen for you — this episode is your answer.

    Relationship coach Naomie Thompson sits down with Helena Hart, host of the Master Your Magnetism podcast, to talk about what it actually takes to attract a deeply loving, committed relationship when you've spent years in the wrong ones.

    Helena met her husband at 37 — just 24 hours after joining a dating app. But the real story isn't the 24 hours. It's everything she did to get herself ready.

    This conversation is for every woman who has ever wondered whether lasting love is still possible for her, felt stuck attracting emotionally unavailable men, or questioned whether she's the problem. You're not. But there is inner work — and this episode shows you exactly what that looks like.

    Whether you're single and dating, healing after divorce, or trying to break unhealthy relationship patterns for good, this is the conversation you need to hear.

    We cover:

    • Why forcing yourself to date before you're truly ready attracts the wrong men
    • How your own emotional availability shows up in who you attract
    • Moving on from emotionally unavailable men quickly — without burnout
    • The one question that cuts through all confusion: "Would my future husband be doing this?"
    • Why vulnerability — not perfection — is what makes a high quality man want to stay
    • How to build self worth and inner security so that healthy love feels familiar
    • Working from the inside out and the outside in to transform your love life

  • 9. Stop Giving Him Advice (If You Want Love and Romance)

    Are you an accomplished, capable woman who always knows how to solve the problem?

    In this episode of The Adored Woman, I’m sharing why giving men advice — even when it comes from love — can quietly kill attraction, polarity, and romance in your relationship.

    If you’ve ever felt frustrated that your man becomes passive, shuts down, or stops stepping up… this episode will show you how well-intentioned “helping” may be creating the dynamic you don’t want.

    We explore:

    • Why unsolicited advice makes a man feel mistrusted

    • The masculine desire to feel respected and capable

    • How over-functioning creates passivity in men

    • Why polarity fades when you become the fixer

    • How to shift from advising to inspiring leadership

    • Exactly what to say instead of giving advice

    • How to keep romance, attraction, and sexual chemistry alive

    If you want to feel cherished, chosen, and adored — without losing your intelligence or power — this episode will show you the subtle shift that changes everything.

  • 8. From Heartbreak to Being Adored: Feminine Energy, Vulnerability, and Dating After Divorce

    If you’re an accomplished woman who’s tired of “doing dating right” and still ending up with hot-and-cold men, this conversation will land in the best way.

    Coach Naomie Thompson sits down with Taylor Carr to talk about what actually changes a woman’s love life: not more strategy, not more perfection — but safety, softness, and real emotional presence.

    Together, they explore:

    • Why high-performing women burn out in dating (and the myth of “work hard = get love”)

    • What feminine energy really looks like in real life

    • Why vulnerability isn’t danger — it’s your biggest strength (and how to start in small steps)

    • The difference between chemistry that’s addictive and compatibility that’s calm — and why calm can become the hottest thing

    • How to date after divorce without the hope/disappointment rollercoaster

    • The shift that changes everything

  • 7. The Relationship Grief No- one Talks About

    Have you ever felt that deep, aching grief after a relationship ended — not just because you miss him, but because you were already living into a future with him?

    In this episode, I’m talking about the grief we don’t name often enough: mourning the relationship that didn’t get to happen… the vision, the plans, the version of life you could see so clearly — and then it was gone.

    I share a personal story from visiting my dad’s grave (he died when he was 38 and I was 16), and how even decades later, what can still sting isn’t only the loss — it’s the incompleteness… the moments we never got to have, the relationship we never grew into.

    And then I bring it back to you and your love life:

    • Why so much heartbreak is really grief for the future you were living into

    • How to let yourself grieve without making it mean you’ll “never be okay”

    • A powerful dating shift: keep the vision… but blur the man’s face

    • How to stay devoted to what you want without attaching to one specific person

    • The reminder your heart needs: the relationship is the prize, not the man

    • Normalising the full human range of feelings — sadness, anger, jealousy, regret, guilt, shame — without judging yourself

    If you’re healing from a breakup, moving on from a marriage, or dating while still carrying tenderness from what didn’t work out… this one will meet you softly and truthfully.

    And if you need someone to remind you: you can grieve and still be moving toward the love you want.

  • 6. Stop Mothering Him: With Dr John Gray- The Hormone Truth Behind Attraction, Desire, and Romance

    Today on The Adored Woman, I’m joined by Dr. John Gray — author of Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus — for a grounded, eye-opening conversation about why men and women so often miss each other… and how to come back into closeness without losing yourself.

    We revisit the classic Mars/Venus principles (like why men “go to their cave” and why women feel better when they can talk things through), and then we take it deeper into the biology behind it all — hormones, stress, connection, and what makes a woman feel safe.

    In this episode, we explore:

    • Why saying, “we need to talk about the relationship” can spike a man into stress and shutdown

    • The difference between complaining and making a clean, feminine request

    • Why over-giving can quietly flip the polarity and create a mother/son dynamic

    • What successful, capable women need now to stay soft, open, and connected

    • How to share feelings without blame so he can actually hear you

    • Dr. Gray’s simple daily tool to help you feel adored (and bring romance back fast)

    If you’re an accomplished woman who’s tired of feeling like the responsible one — managing, over-functioning, or doing relationships “the hard way” — this conversation will bring you back to what actually works to finally feel adored in the best relationship of your life.

  • 5. The 3 “Paths to Love” That Don’t Work (And the One That Does)

    We've been trained by media, movies and magazines that there are paths to getting his love, devotion and attention.

    But what we want is so much more than surface level or transient attraction and connection.

    In today’s episode of The Adored Woman Podcast, I’m sharing the three ways women often try to create love that feel logical… but don’t actually lead to the “adore you forever” kind of relationship.

    They’re not bad things. In fact, they can be beautiful parts of a relationship.
    But they’re not the thing that makes a solid, emotionally mature man bond, commit, and stay devoted.

    If you’re an accomplished woman, you may have been subtly trained to believe that love is something you earn — through effort, performance, being “easy going” being impressive, cool or getting everything just right.

    And yet… you can do all of that and still feel unseen.

    In this episode, I’ll show you:

    • The three common routes that quietly keep women stuck

    • Why they don’t create the deep safety and devotion you actually want

    • The one element that becomes the glue for lasting love — and how to start

    Because the man you want isn’t choosing based on your résumé.
    He’s responding to the felt experience of being with you.

    If you’ve ever thought, “But I have so much to offer — why isn’t love working?”
    This episode will bring you right back to what matters.

  • 4. Masculine Energy, Control & the Feminine State of Being — with Rori Raye

    If you’re the doer, the thinker, the organiser, the one holding everything together in your relationships… this episode is for you.

    In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, I sit down with my mentor of over 10 years, Rori Raye, to unpack what “masculine energy” really means for women — and how living from our heads instead of our bodies quietly blocks the love, cherishing and intimacy we crave.

    We talk about:

    • What masculine energy actually is (and why most accomplished women live there by default)

    • How control shows up in subtle, socially acceptable ways

    • The hidden exhaustion of trying to manage men and outcomes

    • Why we keep attracting emotionally unavailable men

    • The difference between outer strength (armour) and inner strength (soft power)

    • How to drop from head to body in seconds

    • Why complaints push men away — and what to do instead

    • The real work of discovering what you actually want

    • How feminine energy creates connection instantly

    Rori Raye shares the framework behind her “feminine state of being” work and explains how control isn’t about being bossy — it’s about survival, codependence, and trying to read the room to stay safe. And we explore how shifting from “don’t want” and complaint… into clear, embodied desire changes everything.

    If you’ve ever:

    • Tried to fix or improve a man

    • Felt angry that he “should just know”

    • Found yourself attracted to shut-down or unavailable partners

    • Felt exhausted by carrying the emotional weight of the relationship

    …you’ll recognise yourself here.

    This episode is an invitation to stop managing and start feeling. To move from armour to aliveness.

    And most importantly — to create a relationship that feels like a sanctuary.

  • 3. Should You Date Older Men? 7 Reasons It Might Be Your Best Move

    I want to open your mind to the benefits of dating older men.

    When we've spent our lives getting into, and out of, the wrong relationships; it's time to consider widening our options without compromising values and desires.

    In this episode, I’m sharing seven reasons why dating an older man can be a beautiful choice — especially if you’re craving a relationship that feels steady, cherishing, and emotionally mature.

    We’ll talk about why many older men are looking for emotional connection and joy, why it’s often youthful energy they’re drawn to (not “younger women”), and what can feel deeply supportive about dating a man who’s already done the building years of life.

    You’ll also hear:

    • Why older men can be more stable, established, and clear about what they want

    • How they may appreciate femininity and warm communication even more

    • The key difference between being needed vs being mothered (and when to run a mile)

    • Why many older men are less likely to play games and more likely to lead with intention

    • A grounded look at sex + communication with older men (including the realities and the upsides)

    • Family goals: what’s possible with men in their 50s and beyond

    Most of all, this is a reminder to stay open, trust your instincts, and practice receiving — his chivalry, his steadiness, and the way he shows up.
