Think you’re low-maintenance until they stop texting back? Can’t breathe unless you’re together 24/7? Sounds like you’ve got a ‘Quality Time’ love language. But don’t panic... needing time isn’t the problem, ignoring it is.

Hi besties!! Today we’re breaking down everything you need to know about the second most common love language: Quality Time.

So before you call it quits, LISTEN UP.

If you’re feeling unloved, or they swear you’re “too needy,” this episode is your playbook. I’m breaking down how 'Quality Time' lovers give and receive love, so you can stop misreading the signs and start getting what you actually need.

Send this to your partner (yes, I’m giving you the green light) or listen yourself if you’ve been dating someone who blows up your phone five minutes after you leave.

Your clinginess? It’s not clingy.

It’s love. Let’s talk about it.

What if I told you the reason you don’t have your summer body… is because of your situationship?

This week I’m joined by Sarah Perl, aka The Hot High Priestess, and we’re unpacking why your anxiety, trauma, and bad taste in men are literally showing up on your body.

We go deep on:

• Why your nervous system is hoarding fat like it’s hoarding toxic men
• What it really takes to make a man obsessed with you
• How to manifest your ex back - and when to not
• Law of Detachment: stop obsessing, start attracting
• Masculine vs. feminine energy—and why you keep chasing
• How to break the cycle of dating your daddy (again)
• How generational trauma lives in your hips
• Why you can’t find real love until you heal, and more!
• 
  

If you’ve ever cried over a man and gained five pounds after, this one’s for you :)

You’re not single because you’re broken—maybe you’re just asking the wrong questions.

In this deeply personal and hilariously honest solo episode, I share 30 questions you need to ask yourself if you’re serious about finding real love—not the situationship, not the trauma-bond, not the 2-week high followed by ghosting. We're talking love that lasts.

I also open up for the first time about being deaf—how it’s made me feel small, different, and deeply afraid of being pitied… and how I moved past it.

This is the episode where we stop waiting to be "healed enough" for love—and finally figure out what we actually want and deserve.

Tune in if:

• You keep attracting the same wrong person in a different font
• You’re overthinking love to death
• You’re ready to be loved without fixing every flaw first

Listen ‘til the end for the story that might just change how you see yourself—and love—forever.

Today I’m joined by viral creator MJ Gray to break down everything from the Wizard Liz drama, delusional men who want “traditional women” but can’t even lead… to why the 50/50 dating fantasy is officially dead. We’re talking cheating, bill-paying boyfriends, men who secretly resent powerful women, and why you should think twice who you have a baby with.

If you’ve ever wondered why the guy who chases you ends up trying to humble you, why some friends feel like emotional leeches, or why men always “circle back” after destroying everything—this episode is your new bible. 

And be sure to tune in to the last 10 min since I drop a final update on Wizard Liz that might change the way you see her forever.
