The Challenger Podcast

On this week's episode, we welcome back Stuart Motola for a follow up interview to catch up with him after years of international travel.  Stuart Motola is a men's relationship coach who offers guys and couples concrete strategies for how to get unstuck in relationship. With over 15 years working with thousands of men on their relationships and personal growth, Stuart utilizes a unique system that breaks the patterns that keep men tied up in frustrating relationships.

Stuart and I dig deeper into the psyche of the Nice Guy and how he shows up in relationship as a martyr or victim and how he self-sabotages his relationships.  Have you been in a relationship with a Nice Guy?  Have you seen Nice Guy tendencies show up in yourself in a relationship?  

Please connect with Stuart on his website, stuartmotola.com or on YouTube @stuartmotola to learn more about how he supports men and couples in their relationships.

On this week's solo episode, I offer up five reasons you would want to delete your dating apps... for good this time!  Within each of these, there are reasons why dating apps can be used as a self-awareness and become a big part of your personal development if you're willing to dig in and ask the deep questions as these situations come up for you; as they most certainly will.

Joining me on the podcast this week is Grace Patterson, an actress that is making it happen in Los Angeles. While growing up on a farm in Texas, Grace always knew that the life of an actress was her calling and she went against all of her family's advice and took the leap.  Since moving to LA, she has gone through a break up and her first real period of single hood, which we dig into during our conversation!

I am honored to have Nicole Kay join me on the podcast this week to share her experience as an independent woman dating in the modern world.  Texting, social media and dating apps have us believing we need instant access to each other.  What we discuss today will challenge the narrative that love needs to be a certain way.

Nicole and I orginally connected on TikTok through our common interest in the savagery that can be modern dating.  We discuss two relationships that came about over Tiktok and what Nicole learned as a result.  If her message resonated with you today, please connect with her on Instagram @nakdash or on TikTok @theogpicklequeen

On this week's episode, we are joined by Gina LoPinto from New York City.  I recently put an invitation out on Instagram for guests to share their stories on the podcast that may help others recognize authenticity when dating in the ups and downs of a global pandemic. As you listen to today's episode, I want you to be open to what (in)compatibility in a relationship can look and feel like through Gina's personal story while dating a conspiracy theorist in 2021.

She and I also dig into what it looks like to date an ex after many years apart and why you would consider it a good idea... or not!  We also discuss how to approach responding when someone is beginning to project their personal BS onto their date or partner.  What comes up for you when you listen in on today's conversation with Gina? 

Feel free to connect with her on Instagram or TikTok @ginaalo and let her know she's not alone in her journey of dating in NYC!  If you're looking for more support in your own relationship or dating life, connect with me on Instagram @daveglaser_cscs and I'll sit down with you for an hour to sort through what's coming up for you that is holding you back from what you truly want in life and love!

This is The One!  On this week's episode of the podcast, we welcome back Dr. Liz Fedrick from Evolve Counseling to discuss relational programming and how it plays a role in how we choose partners.  From childhood to adulthood, our family systems and relational programming lay the foundations in our subconscious for how we choose romantic partners.
