Ep. 35 Why Do They Keep Having Sex With Me If They're Not Interested Or Don't Want The Relationship I Want?

In this episode, I am sharing dating advice from the great Natalie Lue. Why do we keep sleeping with people who don’t want what we want? One of the hardest truths in modern dating: sex doesn’t equal love. I will unpack why emotionally unavailable partners keep coming back, and why we sometimes let them. Also, I will share a personal story about ego, self-worth, and the difference between being chosen and being wanted. It’s a conversation about waking up, letting go, and learning to choose yourself first.

Ep. 25 Fuck Yes or No: The Dating Filter That Changes Everything

For today’s episode, “Fuck Yes or No: The Dating Filter That Changes Everything,” I’m sharing a powerful concept made famous by Mark Manson, a simple yet game-changing rule: if both people aren’t a “Fuck Yes” about being with each other, it’s a no.
