Lyn welcomes love and divorce coach Cindy Stibbard to discuss the challenging journey of thriving after loss and divorce. Cindy shares her personal experiences, highlighting the often-overlooked emotional turmoil that precedes the decision to end a marriage. She emphasises the importance of understanding the seven stages of separation, which mirror the stages of grief, and how individuals can navigate their feelings during this tumultuous time.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Many individuals, especially women, find themselves in a prolonged state of contemplation before deciding to divorce. This period can last for years as they grapple with feelings of indecision and the complexities of their relationships.
Acceptance of Change: It's important to recognise that relationships can evolve over time. Just because a relationship was once fulfilling doesn't mean it will remain so. Accepting that it's okay for relationships to end can lead to personal growth and new beginnings.
The process of separation can be likened to the stages of grief, including denial, anger, bargaining, and acceptance. Understanding these stages can foster compassion between partners, as they may be at different points in their emotional journey.
Having a clear plan and understanding of what life could look like post-divorce can empower individuals to make informed decisions about their future, whether that means staying in the marriage or planning an exit.
BEST MOMENTS
"A marriage erodes over time. It doesn't break overnight. For the person who's contemplating leaving, this decision is a long time coming."
"I spent literally a couple of years contemplating... even though I was feeling unfulfilled and I didn't even understand why."
"If you are unhappy in your relationship, chances are your partner is too. It just takes one person to be brave enough to admit it."
"There is no prize for living an unlived life. Live like you know that this is a finite amount of time."

Lyn talks to relationship coach Cristie Cerniglia about how women can attract more attention and affection from their man. Cristie shares her personal journey, which began with the challenges of her parents' divorce and evolved into a passion for helping others strengthen/ save their marriages. The discussion highlights the importance of shifting focus from complaints & criticism to gratitude & appreciation, the power of self-care, and the significance of women embracing their healthy feminine energy in relationships, so men have the space to show up in their healthy masculine.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Focus on Positivity: Shift your attention from what your partner isn't doing to what they are doing right. This change in focus will lead to your partner wanting to do more to make you happy and creates a more positive atmosphere in the relationship. Express Desires Clearly: Communicate your needs and desires in a way that inspires your partner, rather than complaining or demanding. This approach means you are more likely to be heard and receive more of what you want. Embrace Differences: Recognise and celebrate the differences between his masculine and your feminine energy. Understanding that the polarisation of these energies is what creates and enhances passion, chemistry, attraction and connection which is crucial for a healthy relationship. Take Responsibility for Your Happiness: Your happiness is your own responsibility. By focusing on self-care and personal happiness, you can create a more fulfilling relationship because it doesn't place that burden on your partner. Practice Gratitude: Show appreciation for your partner's efforts, no matter how small. Acknowledging their contributions can strengthen your bond and encourage them to continue to make more effort.BEST MOMENTS
"When we focus on what he's not doing or what we wish he would do, we're going to spend most of our time unhappy."
"I realised I was doing some of that and I needed to stop and I needed to treat him like a smart, capable man, because that's who I married."
"It's not helpful to just keep pointing the finger at him and saying, it's you, it's you, it's you."
"Your husband's number one priority is that you're happy. That's when he feels successful as a man and as a husband."
"Miserable people don't have happy relationships. Happy people do. So let's get 'you' happy first."

Lyn welcomes hypnotherapist and love coach Caroline Ackroyd to discuss the concept of 'love blocks' and how they hinder our ability to find true love. Caroline explains that love blocks are subconscious barriers that form because of negative past experiences and beliefs, often rooted in childhood trauma, that prevent individuals from feeling worthy of love. The conversation delves into common love blocks, such as feelings of unworthiness and fear of showing vulnerability and emphasises the importance of doing the inner work to heal these wounds so that we can attract healthy love relationships.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Love blocks are subconscious barriers that prevent individuals from attacting healthy love in their lives. These usually stem from childhood experiences and beliefs that create fears around love and relationships. To remove love blocks, it's essential to explore childhood experiences and traumas that may have created negative beliefs about self-worth and lovability. Healing these wounds is crucial in order for us to feel deserving of healthy love. Cultural/ religeous beliefs and messages received during upbringing can also contribute to love blocks. It's important to identify and reframe any negative beliefs to align with a more positive healthier outlook on love. To attract a soulmate, one must first get clear on what they truly desire in a partner, focusing on how they want to 'feel' in the relationship rather than just looking at the physical attributes of a potential match. After doing the inner work and setting intentions for love, it's vital to 'let go' of the need to control 'how' and 'when' love will come into your life. Trusting the process allows for unexpected and magical connections to magnetically present themselves.BEST MOMENTS
"Love blocks are subconscious blocks that actually prevent love from manifesting in our lives."
"You cannot receive love if you don't feel worthy of it. Feeling that you're enough is going to be the foundation to attracting that love."
"Being aware that you can view the term 'rejection' in a different way... see that as protection."
"Vulnerability is really at the core of learning to receive, and you need to open yourself up to be able to receive."
"If you have that desire in your heart to meet that special someone, it is a sign that that is there for you."

Lyn welcomes self-love coach Nadja Hagen to discuss the challenges of being a people pleaser and the importance of setting healthy boundaries. Nadja shares her personal journey from being a people pleaser to learning how to establish firm but flexible boundaries that create reciprocal happier balanced relationships.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
People pleasing involves accommodating others at the expense of one's own well-being, leading to resentment and unhealthy/ unfulfilling relationships. It's important to recognise that being nice is different from people pleasing. Healthy boundaries are balanced and flexible, allowing for both rigidity and adaptability depending on the situation. It's essential to communicate boundaries in a kind and honest manner to create mutual respect. Before addressing unacceptable behaviours in relationships, it's crucial to reflect on what is no longer acceptable and articulate desired wants/ outcomes clearly. This self-awareness communicates our boundaries more effectively. If verbal communication feels daunting, writing a letter can be an alternative way to express boundaries. This method allows for a calmer exchange and provides a record of the conversation. It's important to acknowledge when a relationship is harmful, even if it involves family. You may have to consider keeping someone at arms length or letting go of them completely. It is possible to love someone from a distance whilst prioritising one's own emotional & mental health.BEST MOMENTS
"People-pleasing is always saying yes, and accommodating other people at the expense of our own well-being."
"When we say yes, when we truly want to say no, then over time resentment builds up."
"We can learn to set healthy boundaries. We can learn to say no when it's right for us."
"You do not have a relationship with 'potential'. You have a relationship with another human being."
ABOUT THE GUEST - Nadja Hagen - Self-Love Coach

Lyn engages in a thought-provoking discussion with sex educator and relationship coach Mary Whitman Ortiz about the unexpected sexual problems that can arise after marriage. They explore how the transition from the romantic period of dating to the realities of married life can lead to stress and changes in the intimacy experienced between couples plus how to resolve the issues raised.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Couples often experience unexpected changes in their sexual relationship after marriage, moving from a spontaneous romantic phase to a more routine dynamic that can lead to stress and misunderstandings. Open and honest communication is crucial for addressing sexual needs and desires. Couples should create a safe space for discussions about sex, ensuring both partners feel heard and respected. Men and women may have different sexual desires and ways of expressing intimacy. Understanding and acknowledging these differences can help couples navigate their sexual relationship more effectively. Stress from work, health issues, and life stages (like having children or menopause) can impact sexual intimacy. Couples should be proactive in recognising these stressors and discussing how they are affecting their relationship.BEST MOMENTS
"Stress in different stages... can be work-related, health issues, or childbearing, and it really surprises them. We are forever changing, never staying the same."
"I call it the sexual desire divide, because men and women want sex, experience sex differently... we just assume that our spouse has the same desires."
"You have to dare to love because when you get that vulnerable, you don’t know how your spouse is going to respond."
"Sometimes a partner's words of affirmation might be an actual turn off for you rather than a turn on."

Lyn delves into the topic of emotional walls and the impact of past trauma/ heartbreak on our ability to love and connect with others more deeply. She explores the reasons behind why we become guarded in relationships, emphasising the importance of healing from heartbreak and trauma, including sexual abuse.
Lyn encourages listeners to recognise their worth beyond their experiences and to embark on a self-help journey that fosters inner strength, resilience and open heartedness. By reclaiming their power and trusting in the Universe/ Creator/ God (whatever their belief) to deliver justice on those who have caused them pain, individuals can begin to lower their walls and feel free to embrace a life filled with love and authenticity.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Many individuals build emotional walls due to past heartbreaks or trauma, which can hinder their ability to form deep loving relationships and feel fulfilled. Emphasising the importance of self-love, listeners are encouraged to recognise their worth beyond their experiences and to focus on healing from within. Living in fear allows past perpetrators to maintain power over us. Recognising this can help us reclaim our personal power and live a happier more liberated life. Trusting that the Universe/ God/ Higher Power will deliver justice to those who have caused us harm, provides us with a sense of freedom and allow individuals to heal and move forward without being burdened by vengeful thoughts or remaining stuck in victimhood due to past traumas. A Japanese quote - translates and highlights the idea that while 'the brave may face risks, those who are overly cautious may never truly live'. Embracing life despite it's challenges is essential for personal growth, happiness and fulfillment.BEST MOMENTS
"Why do we have our guard up when it comes to love and romance? It’s down to the fact that we've had previous relationships where we've been really hurt and heartbroken."
"You are more than your body. You’re a survivor. You will get stronger. You are magnificent. You are worthy. You are loved."
"If we allow our perpetrators to make us live in fear, we're disempowering ourselves."
"The Universe, Higher Power, God, whatever your belief, will meter out its own justice to the people that have done us wrong."
"The brave may die but the cautious don't live. Do you want to live a life where you're not actually living and you're just existing?"

Lyn welcomes alternative pleasure coach and mentor CJ to explore the intriguing world of BDSM and DS relationships. They discuss common misconceptions, such as:- BDSM and DS activities do not necessarily involve the giving or receiving of pain and can actually be exciting, pleasurable, playful and fun.CJ shares her personal journey into the realm of power exchange, highlighting the importance of communication, consent, and aftercare in fostering intimacy and connection.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Definitions of BDSM and DS: BDSM stands for Bondage, Discipline, Sadism, and Masochism, while DS refers to Dominance and Submission. These concepts encompass a variety of relationship styles and power exchange dynamics. BDSM does not inherently involve pain. Participants can explore different aspects of BDSM and choose what they enjoy, allowing for a personalised experience that may or may not include pain. Clear communication and explicit consent are fundamental in BDSM relationships. Negotiating experiences and understanding each other's boundaries can enhance intimacy and trust. Aftercare is crucial following intense experiences in BDSM, as it helps individuals transition back to everyday life. This practice can also be beneficial in non-BDSM relationships, emphasising the need for emotional check-ins after intimate encounters.BEST MOMENTS
"There is a very often, including myself, and in the media, a representation of BDSM as one thing... that involves pain. But you can cherry pick things you enjoy and say no to others."
"When you surrender to someone, if trust is broken, even in minute ways, it's damaging... this container can really kind of enlighten a person."
"It's possible to be one thing in your everyday life, and another in your pleasure experience. It's something fun that you can play with."
"We all have something a little bit kinky that we enjoy... let's try to be open, but also have boundaries around people shaming us for things."

Lyn welcomes dating coach and hypnotherapist Keshia Rice to discuss the essential topic of how to balance our feminine & masculine energies in our relationships. They explore the importance of understanding that both men and women possess both of these energies (regardless of gender/ sexual orientation), and how by recognising when to step into a specific energy it can massively enhance the romantic relationship dynamic.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Both men and women possess masculine and feminine energies, which are essential to understand, epecially how they work in context of a romantic relationship dynamic. Masculine energy is associated with structure and boundaries, while feminine energy embodies flow and nurturing. Healthy relationships thrive on polarity, where one partner embodies a more masculine role while the other embodies a more feminine role. This dynamic can exist in both heterosexual and same-sex relationships. Polarity in romantic relationships is what creates more passion, attraction & chemistry. It doesn't matter which partner embodies which energy, as long as both partners understand and appreciate their respective roles. It is important for individuals to be aware & intentional about when to embrace their masculine or feminine energy, especially in romantic relationships. This intentionality also allows for better communication and understanding between partners. Both partners should feel safe to express vulnerability. This involves creating an environment where each person can share their feelings and emotions without judgment, fostering emotional intelligence, maturity and deeper connection.BEST MOMENTS
"Understanding how important that is in all the areas of our life... masculine energy is structure and feminine energy is flow."
"It's about educating women that we can use our masculine energy when it's appropriate... but it isn't about acting or being like a man."
"Feminism at its core is choice... You can be a feminist and be a stay-at-home mother or a boss babe with your own empire."
"You can have the sexual passion and intimacy in a relationship and the vulnerability and also have a relationship that's calm overall."

Lyn meets somatic career mentor Juliana Linder to talk about the question - are you a "runner" or a "chaser" in your relationships.
Juliana shares her personal journey of running away from conflict and the realisation that her patterns stemmed from a deeper issue of running away from herself. The discussion delves into the importance of self-awareness, self-acceptance, and understanding how the masculine and feminine energy dynamic works so that we can foster healthier relationships.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
A significant turning point in personal growth is recognising unhealthy patterns, such as running away from conflict or oneself, and the importance of self-reflection so we can break these cycles. We all embody both masculine and feminine energies, understanding how they work in a relationship dynamic is essential and can lead to conflict if they are not used in healthy ways. Even minor positive adjustments in behaviour & mindset can lead to significant changes in life outcomes, illustrating how small shifts compounded over time, can create a ripple effect in our personal growth and relationships.BEST MOMENTS
"I had absorbed that tendency for myself in every single relationship that I had been through."
"We can either decide that we're going to be a victim and allow life to happen to us, or empower ourselves and allow life to happen through us."
"Self-awareness without self-acceptance will continue to create the cycle of self-suffering."
"If you want passion in a relationship, there has to be that strong polarisation of the masculine & feminine energies."
ABOUT THE GUEST - Juliana Linder - Somatic Career Mentor
Juliana believes that living in alignment with your true self is the key to deep fulfilment and lasting success. Once feeling caged by self-doubt and societal pressures, she transformed her life through radical self-acceptance and surrender, discovering her mission to guide others out of the cycle of pressure and into a life of purpose.
Her personal motto, “break up with the past to create a life you’re madly in love with,” is the foundation of her work.
Through intuitive guidance, emotional release, and embodiment practices, Juliana empowers women to shed limiting beliefs and step into their most authentic, prosperous, and luxurious lives. Her mission is not only to help women reach success but to feel it, fully—aligning ambition with joy, so that success feels as good as it looks.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/juliana.r.lindner

Lyn welcomes Krystal Casey, a motivational speaker and women's empowerment coach, to discuss the sensitive topic of finding your voice and moving on from abuse. Krystal shares her harrowing personal story of discovering her husband's abuse of their daughter, the courageous steps she took to protect her children, and the journey of healing that followed.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Finding & using your voice is a crucial part of overcoming abuse. Speaking out not only helps the individual but also empowers children who may not have the ability to voice their experiences. Recognising that generational patterns of abuse can be broken is essential. It requires a conscious effort to address and change these cycles for the benefit of future generations. When a child discloses abuse, it is vital for caregivers to believe them and provide support. This validation can significantly positively impact the healing process. Trauma can manifest physically and emotionally. Engaging in practices like yoga, mindfulness, and meditation can help release stored trauma and promote healing. While accountability for abusers is important, the focus should also be on the healing and well-being of survivors. Finding peace and moving forward is a priority, even amidst mixed feelings about getting justice.BEST MOMENTS
"Abuse thrives in silence and darkness. Stepping into that light and beginning to use your voice is going to make such an impact."
"I can certainly vouch for the fact that once you've shared, it makes a huge difference."
"It took me a while to recognise that these generational patterns aren't created in one generation and they won't be broken in one generation."
"Your voice matters. Your story matters. You matter."

Lyn explains the difference between healthy and unhealthy masculine energy. Building upon her previous discussion (in episode 288) where she explained the difference between healthy and unhealthy feminine energy. She emphasises that everyone embodies all the traits of the masculine & feminine energies (healthy & unhealthy), regardless of gender or sexual orientation.
She outlines the characteristics of unhealthy masculine energy, such as chauvinism and aggression, contrasted with healthy masculine traits such as chivalry and protection, and highlights the importance of awareness in recognising and shifting from unhealthy to healthy energy states, which can significantly positivley impact our romantic relationships.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
There are both healthy and unhealthy masculine energy traits. Unhealthy masculine traits include being chauvinistic, aggressive, overly controlling and domineering, while healthy masculine traits encompass being chivalrous, protective, supportive, and courageous. In romantic relationships it's the polarisation of the masculine & feminine energies which creates passion, we are striving to educate people that you can have healthy passion without toxicity. Toxicity happens when one partner is in an unhealthy masculine energy state and the other in an unhealthy feminine energy state. Unhealthy energy states happen when we come from a place of fear, lack, worry and doubt. Healthy energy states happen when we come from a place of love, abundance, faith and trust. Awareness of one's energy state is crucial for attracting and maintaining healthy relationships. It is important to catch moments when unhealthy traits are demonstrated and to choose to respond differently rather than immediatly react from a place of fear. This self-awareness leads to personal growth and healthier, passionate, more fulfilling relationships.BEST MOMENTS
"Unhealthy masculine energy is the traits of being chauvinistic, aggressive, overly controlling, cold/ distant, possessive, dominant."
"For the healthiest relationships, obviously, you want to be embodying the traits of all the healthy traits be it masculine or be it feminine."
"If you're in a toxic relationship, it's because you're both in an energy of coming from a place of fear, lack, worry and doubt."
"It's all about catching those moments where we feel we're demonstrating unhealthy traits... and looking at ourselves in this and thinking how can we respond differently."
"We the people can now be a role model for how to live a better, happier, healthier life."

Lyn welcomes Svietlana Lavrentidi, a Soulmate Alchemist, who shares her inspiring journey from overcoming an abusive relationship to helping others manifest their soulmate. Svietlana discusses the importance of understanding what you truly want in a partner, the necessity of taking action in the dating process, and the significance of addressing past traumas that may hinder personal growth. With insights on the 'Law of Attraction' and the energy we emit, Svietlana emphasises the need for self-reflection and healing to attract healthy love.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Understanding What You Want: It's crucial to have clarity on what you truly desire in a partner. Being honest about your needs helps avoid wasting time and ensures that you attract the right person. Taking Action is Essential: Manifestation requires action. Simply wishing for a soulmate or visualizing a perfect partner is not enough; you must actively seek opportunities to meet new people. Addressing Past Baggage: Reflecting on past relationships and identifying limiting beliefs is vital. Many people find themselves repeating the same patterns in relationships due to unresolved traumas or past negative experiences. Energy and Mindset Matter: The energy you emit through your thoughts and feelings influences what you attract into your life. Focusing on positivity and abundance will lead to healthier relationships, while a mindset rooted in fear can keep you stuck & attracting unhealthy relationships. Self-Reflection and Growth: Engaging in self-reflection after dates can help you learn and grow. Understanding what you like and dislike, as well as recognising red flags, can improve your dating experiences and lead to better deeper connections.BEST MOMENTS
"You need to be absolutely honest with what you want because you cannot lead people on. Even if you want a different kind of thing from what they want, you still need to be honest."
"If you don't know what you want, then anything will be attracted to you, to prove to you what you don't want."
"Our mess becomes our message. We become experts on the back of going through it all ourselves."
"You have to work on yourself first. It's always very hard to take those first steps and to even see something you didn't see."
"If you're already alone, if you've already had a broken heart, what do you have to lose? Just be daring."

Lyn appears on the world-renowned World Game Changers podcast alongside Paul Lowe, to discuss the theme "Things I Didn't Know." Lyn shares her wisdom and insights on personal development, emphasising the importance of shifting from a mindset of fear, lack, worry and doubt to one of love, abundance, faith and trust, so you can consistantly attract a happy peaceful life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Our thoughts and focus shape our experiences. Where focus goes energy flows. By concentrating on positive aspects and viewing situations through a lens of love, abundance, faith and trust, we can create a happier more fulfilling reality. Many individuals are unaware of how societal conditioning influences their mindset, often leading to us living in a default state of fear, lack, worry and doubt. Recognising this conditioning is the first step toward self-empowerment and change. Developing self-love can be challenging due to past conditioning and external influences. A helpful exercise is to look in a mirror and visualise oneself as a child, which can make it easier to express & extend compassion to that child and then subsequently progress to love one's current self. Humour plays a significant role in the healing process. It can provide relief and perspective during difficult times, making it easier to help individuals cope with loss and adversity.BEST MOMENTS
"I didn't know until I'd done a lot of work on myself that things happen 'for you' and not 'to you', and that you have the power to be in control of the things that you create/ receive in your life."
"Everything is a self-fulfilling prophecy, whether that's negative or positive. We attract what we focus on."
"The easiest way to start the process of self-love is to think of yourself as a little boy or little girl."
"Just having this support, guidance, mentorship... just somebody to give us that little bit of belief in ourselves."

Lyn delves into the importance of women empowering themselves by stepping into their 'healthy' feminine energy. She contrasts the traits of the 'healthy feminine' - such as feeling worthy, loved, and empowered which show up in our behaviours as being independent, secure and confident - with those of the 'unhealthy feminine', which often involve feelings of victimhood and disempowerment, which show up in our behaviours as being co-dependent, overly controlling/ anxious, needy and desperate.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Recognising the characteristics of the healthy feminine, such as feeling empowered, worthy, and loved, versus the unhealthy feminine traits of victimhood and disempowerment is crucial for personal growth and healthy relationships. Being mindful of your thoughts and emotions is essential. If you find yourself in a negative mindset, it's important to identify the sources of those feelings and work towards shifting your focus to love, abundance, faith and trust. The principle that "where focus goes, energy flows" highlights the importance of maintaining a positive mindset. Negative thoughts can lead to attracting more negativity, while positive thoughts can create a more fulfilling reality. Acknowledging your role in creating your own experiences is vital. Instead of blaming others for your circumstances, consider how your mindset and actions contribute to your situation and how you can take charge of your own empowerment.BEST MOMENTS
"The traits of a healthy feminine is that she feels empowered, she feels worthy, she feels that she's enough and she feels that she's loved even if that love is just coming from herself to herself."
"If your thoughts are coming from a place of fear, lack, worry and doubt, you're going to unfortunately attract more of that."
"Once you make that shift within yourself, you'll notice people treat you differently."
"It's quite easy to point the finger and blame others for what we have in our lives, but what part are you also playing in that?"
"True love starts with opening our hearts."

Lyn welcomes author Bret Davis to discuss reducing anxiety and building confidence, he shares some of the philosophies in his book, "Bret Isms". Bret also talks about his personal journey, including the influence of being brought up as the son of a professional football coach, and how his observations of super-confident people shaped his insights.
The conversation delves into practical tips for managing anxiety, such as recognising anxious moments, focusing on positive self-talk, and setting healthy boundaries.KEY TAKEAWAYS
Everyone experiences anxiety at some level, and it's important to acknowledge that feeling anxious is a shared human experience. Understanding the root cause of anxiety can help individuals manage it better. Techniques such as breaking tasks into smaller, manageable parts and reparing for worst-case scenarios can help alleviate feelings of overwhelm and anxiety. Taking time for quiet reflection or "listening" to one's inner voice can foster more self-awareness and lead to personal growth. This practice can help individuals identify areas for improvement and appreciate the value of self-love. Training the mind to focus on positive aspects of situations, rather than negative ones, can enhance self-esteem and overall happiness. This shift in perspective can make it easier to love oneself and be more confident.BEST MOMENTS
"The purpose of the book was not to become a bestseller... if just a handful of other folks out in the world can live a happier existence, then I feel we all owe it to each other to kind of make that a goal."
"The eagle that chases two rabbits catches none. So I often remind myself, just catch your first rabbit... Once you start seeing that and you see your to-do list shrinking, your anxiety level goes down."
"You can't trip over what's behind you. We get so caught up in not only beating ourselves up over mistakes we've made in the past... the power lies within myself and my inner voice to create a better, positive existence."
"I think we can sometimes fall into the trap of thinking we're being the bigger person by being more forgiving. But actually, what we're doing is tolerating behaviour we shouldn't be tolerating."
ABOUT THE GUEST - Bret Davis - Author
Having grown up in the world of professional sports with a father who was a NFL coach and executive, Bret has had the opportunity to observe some of the top leaders and motivators throughout his childhood and into his young adulthood.
Bret has been able to turn his learnings and observations into a powerful Amazon #1 best-selling self-help book ‘Bret Isms’ for those looking to boost their confidence and reduce anxiety.Website - https://bretisms.com/

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Understanding your emotions and sitting with your anxiety, can effectively help in managing dating anxiety.

"I was the person that as soon as I was getting a text message the day after the date, I would be responding right away."
"So, you know, if you go for an interview, for example, and you don't get the job, then I would think, well, if not that, then something better. And it's the same in our relationships."

Lyn talks to Dr. Liat Yakir, author of the book "A Brief History of Love," which includes the biology of love, as well as the three stages of love - attraction, infatuation, and attachment - plus the role hormones play at each stage, such as testosterone, oestrogen, dopamine, serotonin and oxytocin.
Dr Yakir discusses the challenges we face in long-term relationships, the importance of maintaining high oxytocin levels, and provides fascinating biological insights on how to sustain a healthy relationship.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Love can be divided into three stages - attraction, infatuation, and attachment, each affected by different hormones and emotions. To sustain a healthy relationship, focus on activities that elevate oxytocin levels such as hugging, kissing, caressing, dancing, and sharing burdens. Shift the focus from penetration to overall intimacy, including touch, eye contact, and skin-to-skin contact, to enhance sexual satisfaction in long-term relationships. Learning to resolve differences & conflicts efficiently and reconciling within one and a half hours after a disagreement leads to a more stable and fulfilling, long term relationship. Embrace authenticity in relationships, appreciate each other's traits, and prioritise self-love to attract a partner who complements rather than completes you.BEST MOMENTS
"We need to divide love into three stages... attraction, infatuation, and attachment. In every stage, we have different hormones at play in our brain and our body."
"We name 'love' as only the stage that we become crazy about the person or about love, not even about the person, but about the feeling of being in love."
"We need to understand that this is part of nature, this is part of our biology. We can outsmart it and we can win, but we have to understand that it will take effort."
"We need to change how we think about sex... It's not about the number of penetrations but about the times we are sexual with each other, about the 'intimacy' rather than the actual penetration."
"It isn't about looking for somebody to complete you. It's about feeling complete within yourself and then attracting a partner that's going to complement you, not complete you."
ABOUT THE GUEST

This time an intriguing and candid discussion on the topic of sex matters for women in menopause. Lyn talks to special guest Vireo Karvonen, a pleasure coach and advocate for women's sexual empowerment. Vireo shares her personal journey, highlighting her experience of going from shame and dissatisfaction to positive transformation in her own relationships.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Women in menopause should remember that being in ecstasy, pleasure, and joy is their natural way of being. Pre-menopause, menopause and post-menopause can be a woman's prime time as they no longer experience the energy loss associated with menstruation. This stage of life offers access to more creativity and life force energy, making it the most powerful and potent time for women to tap into their gifts and potential. Challenge societal norms that promote unrealistic beauty standards by embracing natural beauty and diversity. Companies like Dove, which showcase 'real women' in all shapes, sizes, and abilities, set a positive example that should be encouraged and supported. Women experiencing challenges around sex during menopause should seek support from a tribe of like-minded individuals and consider working with a pleasure coach or mentor.BEST MOMENTS
"I remember literally laying in bed after we made love and had sex. And there's a book by Paulo Coelho, he calls it 11 Minutes, and it was probably less than 11 minutes."
"Yeah, tantra actually just means 'the way', and it's like the way home to yourself. Often when people think of tantra or tantric, they think of just sex, but it's really, it's way more than that."
"Yeah, that's a big piece of what I do in our pleasure program. I have a 12 months pleasure program for women and a big piece is with the mindset tool, we get to dissolve a lot of the shame."
ABOUT THE GUEST - Vireo Karvonen - Pleasure Coach
Vireo Karvonen (Dancing Pleasure Goddess) is an expert in supporting women to become more empowered. Since 2008, she has supported and served hundreds of women in freeing themselves from lifelong patterns, going from
self-sabotage to self-love,
shame to pleasure,
depression to freedom of expression,
sexual trauma to sexual healing,
feelings of not enough to deep self-acceptance,
struggle to thriving,
frustration to satisfaction,
unfulfilling sex to ecstatic orgasmic sacred union.One of Vireo’s gifts is creating a safe and sacred space where women of all shapes, sizes and ages, feel safe to be themselves and share openly some of their deepest fears, hurts, worries, darkest secrets, desires and more.

Lyn discusses the pros and cons of dating apps with guest Jessica Kozlowski, a psychic medium, healer, and life coach. Jessica shares her personal experiences with dating apps, highlighting the challenges she faced and the different types of men she encountered.
They discuss the importance of setting boundaries, recognising red flags, and maintaining a positive mindset to successfully navigate the world of online dating.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Dating apps offer the advantage of knowing that the people on them are looking for relationships, providing a level of certainty that may not exist in real-life situations. Working on yourself, so you have healthy self-worth and firm boundaries in place is crucial when navigating the world of dating apps to attract the best potential matches and experiences. It's important to be aware of red flags on dating apps, such as individuals who may have fake profiles, who nurture you via text, with the intention of then asking for money or those displaying closed-mindedness, as these can indicate potential scams or incompatible matches. Different dating apps cater to different preferences, with options like Bumble and Hinge offering unique features such as zodiac sign compatibility and varied response rates from matches. While dating apps can be impersonal and exhausting, exploring multiple platforms can provide more options and reveal patterns of compatibility in potential matches.BEST MOMENTS
"I think it's important that we approach it with a positive mindset, having worked on our ourselves, you know, I mean, I suppose we're all a work in process."
"I think even on some sites you can't even see the photo of the person who's liked you without actually making an investment."
"So try all of them. create a profile on multiple dating apps and then decide."

Lyn is joined by JP Marsh, to talk about the topic of co-parenting after separation/ divorce, and how to transition from conflict to collaboration. JP shares his personal experience of co-parenting his daughter with her mother after their separation. He highlights the challenges they initially faced, such as hurt feelings and animosity, and also how they were able to overcome these through self-awareness and effective communication.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Establishing clear communication, setting boundaries, and expressing needs and expectations are crucial in co-parenting relationships. Self-Reflection and Growth: Recognising personal triggers, working on mental health, and breaking negative patterns are essential for personal growth and improving the co-parenting dynamic. Refrain from blaming the other parent and instead focus on finding compromises and solutions together for the well-being of the child/ children. Maintaining consistency regarding rules, routines, dicipline and boundaries across both households provides stability and security for the child/ children. Collaboration over Conflict: Transitioning from conflict to collaboration requires the willingness to compromise, to be on the same page, and prioritise the child's/ children's best interests.BEST MOMENTS
"The awareness, I guess, is a big part of it, you know, and it's the biggest thing that I have to get through to people, especially early on, and kind of beat into their heads is you gotta, you need to leave your own pity party."
"Most people won't get out of their own way. Whether it be the mother or the father, it doesn't really matter"
"Children need boundaries as well. They need that routine."
