This week on The Thing Is… we’re unpacking a truth most of us have felt but rarely admit ..sometimes, people don’t fall in love with you. They fall for the version of you that serves them, the calm you, the healed you, the one who fits their fantasy but not your reality.

We discuss what it’s like to be loved for your potential, not your presence, and how to recognize when connection turns into projection. From romantic relationships to friendships and even family dynamics, this episode.

It’s time to stop performing for love and start standing in your truth because the real you deserve to be chosen, not curated.
