Being mindful about your life choices is key to success in every aspect of life. When you date, you need to have set standards not based on shallow things like height or physical features that eventually fade with age. But based on values. For example, can this man build an empire with you? Can this man insure that your children are born into wealth? If you’re over the age of 24 you have no business dealing with men who aren’t winners! The days of “I like him because he’s cute and funny” are over. Generationally you need to build a partnership with a man who brings more to the table than just “I love you.” Listen to this episode if you want to attract a provider man into your life. If your man isn't making your life easier, sorry to say it, but he ain't the one.



Topics Covered In This Episode:

• How To Attract a Provider Man
• Why You're Attracting All The Wrong Men
• How Your Childhood Impacts Your Dating Experiences
• How To Identify a Provider Vs a Lovebomber

Studies suggest that Canadians are leaving hundreds of millions to billions of dollars unclaimed each year. The reality is that you’re probably leaving money on the table.

Have you ever stopped to think about how your childhood experiences can affect your romantic relationships? Did you know that our upbringing can affect the way we behave in adult relationships, including how we handle our finances? While your parents might not have known what an attachment style was, they shaped yours as a child. The fact is, we don’t just have relationships with people, we have relationships with money too! And how you feel and what you believe can have a big impact on whether you earn, save, invest, or even lose money. To understand how trauma impacts your money habits we need to understand the different attachment styles people develop when they’re young. Whether you're anxious, avoidant, disorganized or secure, your attachment style will often dictate how you relate to money. Is your attachment style making you rich or broke? There's only one way to find out, hit the 'play' button now, thank me later.

If you live in Metro Vancouver or the Greater Toronto area, there's a good chance that you've either been invited to an Indian wedding or attended one. They're often lavish, extravagant, week-long affairs with anywhere from 500 to 1,200 guests. An Indian wedding can last from three days to even a full week. There is a lot to love in an Indian wedding, but with all the extravagance and glamor, the cons of a big, fat Indian wedding are not always considered. But here’s the harsh truth: such weddings burn a hole in the family’s pocket and no matter how hard they try, keeping every guest happy is next to impossible. Throughout this episode, you’ll hear anonymous submissions from couples about their challenges and pain points. Today, we’re getting into the nitty gritty of indian weddings between the nosy relatives who always find a reason to be unhappy, the flaunt factor, the traditions and culture, the maddening preparations, pricey and unprofessional vendors, familial expectations, bachelorettes gone wrong, getting into debt, and finally teaching you how to set clear boundaries with your family— we’re covering it all. Today, I’m Unveiling South Asian Weddings for all that they are.

We’ve all heard the saying that money can’t buy love but can love survive the financial rollercoaster? Do you think combining money and marriage is a disaster? Financial stress is the second leading cause of relationship breakdowns, behind infidelity. 73% of couples say stress related to money is the root cause of their issues. Financial compatibility means you and the person you are in relationship with are on the same page about money. We all have our own opinions and habits when it comes to saving or spending, and if your partner's views are very different than your own, it could cause conflict and be a sign of financial incompatibility. In this episode, you're going to learn how to talk money with your person.
