We all know we won’t connect with everyone we meet . . . but one of the most frustrating situations we can find ourselves in is one where we feel an initial spark and a connection, but things just don’t seem to progress. And in the end, they end up fading as we feel a lack of momentum. Rather than giving in to our desire to double down on communication, there’s a simple shift we can make on a date that allows unique attraction to grow. And it’s the kind of thing that will leave them thinking of ...
Mar 20, 2023•11 min•Transcript available on Metacast Back in ye olden times, the fear that a partner might be cheating was enough to keep someone up at night. But in recent years, we’ve added a new layer of anxiety to the mix: “micro-cheating,” a.k.a. “back burner relationships.” In fact, when Psychology Today recently polled people who are in a relationship, 56% revealed they had a back burner person: someone they’re in contact with who could be an option if their current relationship doesn’t go the distance. That’s not to say that everyone reali...
Mar 17, 2023•10 min•Transcript available on Metacast When we like someone, it’s tempting to move fast, let our emotions take over, and simply do what feels good. But in this frenzy of excitement, we can inadvertently end up on a path we don’t want to be on… In this new episode, I answer a question from someone who didn’t want to repeat the last 2 years of her life, which she spent in a ‘friends with benefits’ situation. --- ►► Unlock My Best Solution For Your Current Dating Situation → http://www.YourDatingSolution.com...
Mar 13, 2023•11 min•Transcript available on Metacast Did you know that men and women respond differently to breakups? My brother Stephen and I talked about recent research that showed differences in how men and women process emotional pain, how long they take to recover from heartbreak, and how likely they are to want to get back together. Of course, we are all individuals, and our response will also be determined by our own personality and experiences, but it's always interesting to see these general patterns of male and female behaviour and whet...

Mar 08, 2023•1 hr 13 min•Transcript available on Metacast Does your dating life feel like you’re living in the extremes . . . where you’re either super-attracted to someone who treats you poorly, or you feel safe and loved in a situation where the chemistry’s lacking?

Mar 06, 2023•18 min•Transcript available on Metacast We’ve all experienced this relentless form of self-torture . . . Whether your breakup was two days or two decades ago, you find yourself looking back and wondering how things could’ve turned out had you acted differently. Had you known then what you know today. Pretty soon, you’re living in the timeline where you didn’t “ruin everything” with that person . . . ultimately punishing yourself over a parallel universe you’ve created in your mind. In this clip, my brother Stephen and I answer the que...
Mar 03, 2023•18 min•Transcript available on Metacast We asked you what your biggest fears for the future were, and you answered! No matter how confident we feel, we all have worries about what lies ahead. The future is unknown. And many of us can’t help but occasionally let our biggest anxieties and worries about where our life is going get the better of us. It could be about your career, your relationships, or anything that keeps you up at night. In this new episode, Matt, Stephen, Audrey, and Jameson talk about what it takes to either overcome t...
Mar 01, 2023•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast Listening to our gut when something’s off can save us a lot of time and stress when we’re dating . . . but what if we can’t tell the difference between when our gut is warning us and when our anxiety is trying to sabotage us? What if the red flags we think we’re seeing are actually our fears in disguise? If you have a tendency toward anxiety, this second-guessing can make the early days of dating extra stressful, because you may have a hard time separating an important concern from your ever-vig...
Feb 27, 2023•13 min•Transcript available on Metacast I don’t like it when I hear people say, “You need to be happy first before you find a relationship.” It’s not that the sentiment is a bad one, but saying to someone who is facing challenges in life that they need to be happy before they can be with someone seems highly unproductive to me. As if it’s not hard enough being alone when we want to find a partner . . . we now also have to achieve this elusive feeling of happiness before we do?! I’m here to tell you that you don’t need to be happy befo...

Feb 20, 2023•14 min•Transcript available on Metacast Your phone buzzes. It’s a text from them ;) You can feel your stomach flip over with excitement. Every message they send is like sweet honey for your brain. “Damn”, you think, “I’m an addict.” And then you fire a cute message back. And you wait...and wait… “Why aren't they replying?” you want to scream to your friend on the couch next to you. But she’s too busy with her phone to notice. You try to shift focus, but you obsessively check for a text every 30 seconds. Sound familiar? We’ve all had t...
Feb 17, 2023•7 min•Transcript available on Metacast Today, Matt answers a question from a listener who feels she is independent, successful, and ambitious, but is only meeting guys who fit a more "beta" male stereotype (who take the backseat in a relationship), rather than the driven "alpha" guys she would like to meet.

Feb 15, 2023•31 min•Transcript available on Metacast When everybody seems to have found “their person,” it can make us feel so behind and deeply afraid. This is the very moment we fall prey to saying “yes” to the wrong person, just to put an end to the feeling that we won’t find anyone and will miss our chance at having an amazing relationship. But choosing temporary comfort is a short game, and as we shrink our view of the world, we lose sight of just how much abundance is waiting for us. In reality, those who are successful in love play the long...
Feb 13, 2023•13 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. It will capriciously take a person from us at a time we weren’t prepared for. It will injure us when we need to be active. It will rob us of our finances in a bad business deal we thought was a sure thing. It will take away a relationship we thought would la...

Feb 01, 2023•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast Have you ever felt like a magnet for avoidants or wondered if commitment-phobic people are all that’s left in the dating pool? It’s as if you can’t even get anything off the ground, because consistent communication is never in the cards with the people you’re dating. And when you’re dating someone where everything’s falling into place EXCEPT for the fact that they’re avoidant, it can be tempting to rationalize any reason to stay. But why do we do this, and why does this situation make us want to...
Jan 30, 2023•19 min•Transcript available on Metacast A huge number of relationships that end, should end. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But how do we know if ‘ours’ should have ended.

But there is a way of being proactive about getting peace of mind if you feel like you have someone who is worth fighting for. ⠀ It’s through a simple conversation, and I tell you how...
Jan 27, 2023•5 min•Transcript available on Metacast We all like to think that love transcends all other issues, especially that of money. But our BELIEFS about money say a lot about what we value, our fears, and dictate the way we choose to live every day. Do you believe in saving every penny? Would you stay in a fancy hotel on a vacation? How would you feel if your partner bought themselves an expensive car without talking to you first? In this episode, Matt is joined by money expert Ramit Sethi (host of the hit podcast “I Will Teach You To Be R...
Jan 25, 2023•2 hr 51 min•Transcript available on Metacast Have you experienced a situation where in spite of having dated someone for a short time, it took you weeks (sometimes even months) to start to feel like you’re over them?

Jan 18, 2023•2 hr 41 min•Transcript available on Metacast Do you find yourself watching from the sidelines as other people you know go after and get the very things you most desire? Whether it’s love, an amazing job, or a high-value social circle of genuine, supportive friends . . . perhaps you feel envy watching other people work a room better than you—feeling like you can’t tell interesting stories, you’re not charismatic, or you aren’t someone strangers feel drawn to. Most people don’t realize that this phenomenon is not down to personality—it’s imp...
Jan 16, 2023•36 min•Transcript available on Metacast One of the most special moments in life is when we feel seen and in turn see somebody else for who they genuinely are. But this level of DEEP connection requires vulnerability. Truly opening up, being vulnerable and allowing someone to see us at our very core can be terrifying. It’s especially terrifying if we’ve opened ourselves up and been hurt in the process. We all have those negative reference points from our past. Maybe it was the way we were brought up, something that happened at school o...

Jan 11, 2023•53 min•Transcript available on Metacast Have you ever been a victim of the most painful kind of ghosting . . . where you’re haunted by the fact that you never got closure with someone? It’s the sort of thing that can consume your thoughts as you obsessively look over the final exchange you had with the person and enlist your friends to help you dissect it, hoping they can spot a clue you might have missed. The reality is that this need for clarity and closure is a bid for control in a situation where you have none. Not only that, but ...
