"I’m not sure if I’m ready for a relationship with you right now. . .” Nobody wants to hear these words. Especially when it’s coming from someone you genuinely care about. Someone you’ve invested time and energy in. . . and someone you feel could be the right person for you in the long term. It leaves you wishing they could just get over their indecision... If that sounds familiar, I have a simple solution: Because there IS a right way and a wrong way to handle this situation... The wrong way is...

“I thought by this point in my life I definitely would have . . .” can be a dangerous phrase. Whether we’re “feeling behind” because we’ve never gotten married, had kids, or owned a house, or just wish we were further along in our career, it can be demoralizing. It’s the same feeling when you go through a breakup and feel like you just “wasted” all that time with someone. But this thinking is a trap. If you’ve caught yourself feeling “I’m so behind compared to everyone else,” use the four powerf...

Can you relate to this? You start dating someone who seems too good to be true. Maybe they treat you like no one ever has before, or they check all the boxes you’ve been looking for, or maybe it’s their success or status that makes you feel like the luckiest person just to have their attention (as in today’s example). But here’s the catch: they’re sending you mixed signals when it comes to commitment. You keep spending time together, but you’re still unsure of what they actually want. It’s a tri...

After a really good date or two, have you ever found yourself scrolling through the other person’s social media pages . . . to a slightly unhealthy degree? Maybe you’ve even tried to find their exes’ profiles to see how you compare with them? (It’s OK, we’ve all been there.) This is often bad for our mental health. And it doesn’t help when we’re trying to build an organic relationship while secretly stalking every part of someone’s life. In today’s new episode, I share practical strategies you c...

I still remember every heartbreak I’ve ever had. If I try I can still bring back the agony of those months after a relationship ended, wondering if I was ever going to feel better and get back to my normal self. When you’re feeling that pain of losing someone, food doesn’t taste good. TV shows depress you. Your favourite places feel cursed because they bring back bittersweet memories. Life feels like white noise, and your every waking moment goes back to that feeling of loss and pain. We’ve all ...

A few years ago, a top investing firm found that 41% of divorced Gen Xers and 29% of Baby Boomers said they ended their marriage due to disagreements about money. Given that money can cause so much upset and even break up relationships, why don’t we talk about it more? What if your partner refuses to discuss money or has unhealthy money habits? What if you both have very different incomes and it makes your partner insecure? No matter what question you have about money and relationships, you can’...

You know what drives me soooo crazy? Hearing men and women repeat the same dumb myths about relationships over and over again. And I don’t blame anyone for believing them. The fact is that society, romantic movies, and even our friends and family are responsible for spreading certain “facts” about love and dating that just aren’t true. So today, I teamed up with my brother Stephen Hussey (co-writer of the "Get The Guy" book) to break down the top 5 annoying dating myths that need to end now. Thi...

Finding and attracting the relationship you really want can be filled with disappointment. You can have a bad date, or someone who flakes after you felt a real connection, and it can completely crush your hope.

And it’s so important to reframe these moments so we don’t get swept up in our frustration. In today’s episode, I share the 10 best pieces of ad...

When you get your heart broken, who do you turn to for advice? Family? Friends? Trawling around Reddit forums to see what other fellow sufferers have to say about your pain? All of this may help. Maybe. It struck me recently how we’re never really taught how to move on from the agony of losing someone we love. And if we’re not careful, following the behavior of the people around us can make us feel even worse. So. . . let’s pause. Take a breath. Get our s**t together again. It’s nearly 2025. May...

It’s happened to the best of us. The flirty text banter that used to cause a surge of adrenaline has become pedestrian. And pretty soon “How was your day?” becomes “How was your week?” Or perhaps they initiate a text conversation and tell you what they’re up to, but never actually ask you out. Fortunately, all it takes is one small shift to turn it all around. If you’ve lost momentum with someone, feel your momentum is headed in the wrong direction, or just want to improve your communication, th...
