In today’s episode of Embodied Love Rising, Dr. Marchell Coleman takes us deep into the emotional labyrinth of love bombing—a manipulative pattern often disguised as affection, intensity, or romance. If you've ever found yourself swept off your feet only to crash hard later, this conversation is for you.

From viral proposals to grand romantic performances, we’re seeing more public displays of affection than ever—but is it love or performance? And how do you know the difference?

Together, we’ll explore:

• What love bombing really is—and why it’s so confusing to spot
• The psychological and attachment wounds that fuel it
• The alarming data about emotional manipulation and nervous system confusion
• The viral Tyler, the Creator proposal and how it revealed something deeper
• The rising trend of women proposing to men—empowering act or pressure to perform?
• How love bombing shows up across genders and relationships
• What real, embodied love actually feels like—and how to protect your heart from emotional deception

You’ll also receive reflective questions to help you discern whether you’re experiencing love or longing, romance or regulation loss.

Because love shouldn’t leave you spinning. It should leave you steady.

Tune in to reclaim your clarity, your boundaries, and your body’s wisdom.
