Ever notice how you completely fall apart when you try to speak to that guy you’re really attracted to? It’s like with your best friends you can be effortlessly funny, talkative, and smart, then suddenly you’re talking to this guy and your brain turns to mush. Then begins the negative self-talk: “I’m not pretty enough,” “I have nothing interesting to say,” “He’s not going to like me.” It’s like you instantly lose all of your game. You go into “impress” mode. You over-analyze everything you say. ...

If you’re experiencing any kind of pain right now from a “situation” or a relationship ending, this clip is a must-watch for you today. It could be the pain of having been ghosted . . .

Oct 14, 2022•12 min•Transcript available on Metacast Do you want marriage and kids? Feel like you have a sense of urgency because of your biological clock? It’s common for our desires for the future to bring up all kinds of anxieties in dating. Especially when we are torn between “playing it cool”, or being honest and up front about what we want (which could scare someone away!) In this episode, Matt, Stephen, Audrey, and Jameson dive into the thorny topic of how to handle dating and honest communication when you feel hyper aware of your biologica...
Oct 12, 2022•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast Wondering why the guy you’re seeing doesn’t seem to respect you? You might be surprised by the reason . . . If your tendency is toward anxiety, you’ll go to great lengths just to restore the peace and get things “back to normal” as quickly as possible. This often includes the compulsion to say “sorry” even when something’s not your fault. The danger with this is that when we make it clear to someone that we’ll do anything to avoid difficult conversations, it becomes easy for them to take us for ...

Oct 05, 2022•57 min•Transcript available on Metacast Does absence really make the heart grow fonder . . . especially when the person you’re into seems to forget you exist when you’re not in the same room? When you’re together, life couldn’t be better. You have off-the-charts chemistry, they’re totally focused on you, and your connection feels genuine. The catch? When you’re apart, you feel invisible as communication slows to a crawl and often drops off completely. As a result of these mixed signals, you’re essentially living in two completely diff...
Oct 03, 2022•12 min•Transcript available on Metacast Yeah, I said it. Have you ever been in love with someone who doesn't share your feelings You live in hope that one day they'll light up your phone with a text that says how much they can't live without you. Or, you fantasize that they'll leave their partner and run back into your arms. They'll say what a fool they've been and how much they need you by their side. It's romantic, right? Nope. And this kind of "perpetual hope" can be so dangerous for your relationships that I feel I have to say som...

Sep 28, 2022•55 min•Transcript available on Metacast Have you dated someone you find so amazing and impressive that you almost start to feel not good enough for them? Maybe it’s their attractiveness or intelligence . . . or perhaps it’s their success, wealth, or status (such as the example in today’s video) that has you feeling lucky whenever they turn their attention to you. Whatever it might be, the reaction we often have to this feeling is highly toxic for our happiness . . . because we start to shrink our needs. We become pleasers and find it ...
Sep 26, 2022•12 min•Transcript available on Metacast Ever sat ruminating obsessively over something you could have or should have done differently in your relationship? Something you said, something you did, or something you wish you’d have done more? It’s a dreadful, sickening feeling. I know because I’ve felt it. It leads to regret, anxiety, self-loathing… not to mention a lack of appetite and insomnia. We turn over every memory, imagining where we could have been with that person had we just behaved differently. And this feeling isn’t limited t...

Sep 19, 2022•8 min•Transcript available on Metacast You decided it’s time to break up. And now you’re single again. But for some reason you don’t feel at peace. You’re still haunted by that eternal question: Did I make a HUGE mistake? Even if it was YOU who decided to call off a relationship, at some point you’re always going to get that horrible feeling inside of you that questions your decision to dump someone. Your friends and family say it’s for the best. But maybe they don’t really know. Plus, there was that one friend who advised you to giv...
Sep 16, 2022•8 min•Transcript available on Metacast What do you do if you’re dating a Narcissist? It’s one thing to recognise the signs: questioning your sanity, feeling devalued, never having your needs account for. But what about when you FINALLY decide you have to leave? That can be the hardest part. A narcissist can make you feel guilty. They can make you feel like you’re being impulsive, unfair, or even outright cruel for abandoning them. Taking the decision to get your life back can mean unwinding years of entanglement, but it’s the first s...
Sep 14, 2022•2 hr 36 min•Transcript available on Metacast I’ve carefully designed these 7 steps to address the stages you’ll go through—in the exact order they’re likely to arrive. And while we all know this process can take an enormous amount of time to put into action, I hope these steps will serve as a compass that will keep you pointed toward your strength (in spite of any distractions the narcissist may try to throw your way). I also hope this video provides you with strength, acceptance, peace, and progress as you finally move on with your life a...
Sep 12, 2022•18 min•Transcript available on Metacast There's a huge difference between settling FOR something in life and settling ON something. When we "settle for" something, it's often the result of us lowering our standards. We accommodate bad behavior and accept less than what we truly desire because we don't think we're worthy of it. We think "this might be as good as it's going to get" whether in our love life, family, or career. But when we "settle on" something, we take control of it. At this point, we're deciding that at the very least, ...
Sep 09, 2022•4 min•Transcript available on Metacast When a relationship ends, or someone stops calling after several dates, do you need to know why? What does it mean to get “closure” in dating? As humans we put a lot of emphasis on how things end. We want answers: “Was it the way I dressed? Is it something about my body? Or something I did that turned you off? Was it too desperate?!” But what answers are we looking for? And how much brutally honest truth do we really want to hear? Matt, Stephen, Audrey and Jameson try to figure out whether closu...
Sep 07, 2022•2 hr 34 min•Transcript available on Metacast Dating is tough. The person we’re meeting up with may have been on multiple other dates this month. How can we stand out when there seems to be so much competition? The #1 way to separate ourselves is through great conversation. And yet most of us spend all of our time trying to look hot without ever thinking about what we’re going to say when we get there. I’m sure you already have the “looking great” part taken care of. But in today’s video, I cover the “what to say” part—specifically, how to ...
Sep 05, 2022•9 min•Transcript available on Metacast We all long for financial independence, relationship bliss, greater familial connection, and a generally peaceful life with fewer hardships. But as it happens, life doesn’t care about the straight-line trajectory we've planned for ourselves. But life is cyclical and doesn’t trend in just one direction. This is why it is imperative for us to take our focus off of where we feel we “ought to be” and make peace with life as it is today. It is our job to cherish and learn from the wisdom gained from ...
Sep 02, 2022•10 min•Transcript available on Metacast It's easy when we like someone to feel like we have to make excuses for their avoidant behaviour. Sometimes they may have genuine psychological issues that need to be resolved. But how much should you wait in limbo if the person you're dating still hasn't figured themselves out? Should their issues with their previous ex be an excuse to not move forward? And what can you do about it? Matt, Jameson, Stephen and Audrey sit down to talk about dating a celebrity, being a "challenge", valuing yoursel...
Aug 31, 2022•1 hr 16 min•Transcript available on Metacast Who pays on a first date? Six years ago, I made a controversial video tackling this very subject, and it went viral. Millions of people watched and reposted it (wikiHow even used it as the definitive video answer to the question) . . . It was so popular that it went viral AGAIN earlier this year when someone posted it under the title “Man Humbles a Room Full of Women.” So this week, I decided to make a reaction video to my own video. --- Get My Best Solution to Your Current Love Life Issue.

Aug 29, 2022•17 min•Transcript available on Metacast In the early stages of dating someone we like and feel excited about, everyone is worried about coming across too keen and blowing it. This is a very human experience felt by men and women alike. And it is that very emotion that will have us mute our needs and desires as we go into overdrive to impress the other person. But as we know, people like what they value, and communicating our standards early on is a key part of attraction we often overlook. Expressing your needs in early dating can see...

Aug 24, 2022•1 hr 12 min•Transcript available on Metacast Does it sometimes feel like men are afraid of commitment? You could be dating someone for a few months—and have a ton of chemistry and a great emotional connection—and yet, like clockwork, you hit a wall the moment the relationship gets to a stage where it feels like it should be progressing to the next level. Just when you start to feel that this could be something real, he puts his guard up and isn’t ready to commit. Situations like these can be unbelievably painful, and they can leave you fee...
