1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,280
in order to have deeply meaningful, healthy, sustainable,

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,560
and rich in connection, which I think is the point

3
00:00:06,560 --> 00:00:07,400
of relationship.

4
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,440
It's like something I say to clients all the time

5
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:11,160
that's like further together faster.

6
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,160
Like in our relationship, it should be adding.

7
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:14,680
Like you guys should be better together

8
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:15,880
than you are on your own.

9
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,240
I deeply believe like a large percentage of people out there

10
00:00:19,240 --> 00:00:23,440
like are not in the highest experience of relationship

11
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:24,760
that they could have.

12
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:26,120
And it's because of things like that.

13
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:28,600
Like self love and again, going back to my podcast name,

14
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:29,600
I really love myself.

15
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,720
Like self love is maybe an expression of the divine

16
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,920
where it's like when you value yourself,

17
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,800
when you value other people, you are meant to like

18
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:39,560
really take your energy very seriously

19
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:40,960
and protect that energy.

20
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:41,800
You just are better.

21
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,320
Like everybody is better and when we're all people of that, you know?

22
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,320

It's been a while since we've had to have

66
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,600
like gotten to have a full conversation.

67
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,480
So welcome, welcome to the Reparoting Podcast.

68
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,520

69
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:45,360
and what you do.

70
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,280
- Thank you so much, first of all,

71
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:52,280
and like I just to speak about art in in front of art in.

72
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,840
I just have so much respect and admiration for art in in her work.

73
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,680
And you know, we connected online like years ago

74
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,000
and she has truly become a friend

75
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,640
and she is just such a great person.

76
00:03:03,640 --> 00:03:06,400
So I'm just so honored to have had you on my podcast

77
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,080
and to be on yours.

78
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,800
And yeah, we definitely have like the Wednesday evening.

79
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:11,640
(laughs)

80
00:03:11,640 --> 00:03:12,480
(laughs)

81
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:13,480
- Oh, I like the word, "when we're together."

82
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:14,640
So, so fun.

83
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:17,360
- This might be the only time I've seen you

84
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,200
not wearing pink actually.

85
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:20,360
- I know and you know why?

86
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,480
It's because I have specifically black and white earrings on.

87
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:24,560
(laughs)

88
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:25,680
- I have so much time together.

89
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,520
(laughs)

90
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,040
- But yeah, definitely a lot of pink in the wardrobe for sure.

91
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,920
But yeah, so as far as my work goes, you know,

92
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:36,640
I originally started doing relationship coaching

93
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,520
like a bit over 10 years ago.

94
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,800
And I got into it pre-orally and pretty young

95
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,840
because I really do consider my childhood

96
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,080
just like a crash course and like understanding

97
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:52,040
like the fundamental basic of how to have like a healthy

98
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,880
relationship experience in your life

99
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,960
because I was just so like entrenched in the opposite.

100
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,960
And I just really, really had to figure that stuff out

101
00:03:59,960 --> 00:04:02,240
and heal it at a very young age.

102
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,120
And over the years like my work has grown or evolved

103
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,920
as I have and a lot of the work that I tend to do

104
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,840
with women is largely around relationship work

105
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:15,120
where we confront patterns around like self-worth

106
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:16,920
and codependency.

107
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,680
And a lot of the women that I work with

108
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,000
like Lena Bittmore and Ashton and Energetic

109
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,600
and so I help them kind of like be construct

110
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,640
where they might not be in their most authentic expression

111
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,960
of that energy so they can really be in alignment

112
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,960
with attracting the kind of partnerships that they want.

113
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,200
But over the years like that work has also evolved into

114
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:36,800
an element of leadership coaching

115
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,320
because a lot of the women that I work with

116
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:40,920
tend to be like high achievers,

117
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,520
a lot of them are business owners

118
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,680
and a lot of those relationship patterns

119
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,000
of I'm sure Arden can speak too so well.

120
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,000
Don't just translate into romantic relationships

121
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,520
it's also like relationships as a whole, right?

122
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,840
And so when we have these patterns of like people breathing

123
00:04:54,840 --> 00:04:58,400
like self abandonment, overgiving, like validation seeking

124
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,440
and that like manifest into our career relationships

125
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,600
we those relationships can get dysfunctional

126
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,720
and really be a drain on our energy.

127
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,480
And also can impact like our authentic expression

128
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,680
of our purpose and even impact and like our income as well

129
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:12,440
and like hold it back.

130
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,320
And so I found my work evolving into that like area

131
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,840
as well over the years but yeah, I mean,

132
00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:21,040
I find like our relationships impact so much

133
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,560
and the way that we are in relationship

134
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,840
impact so much of our quality of life

135
00:05:24,840 --> 00:05:26,160
and not just our quality of life

136
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,840
especially it impacts future generations

137
00:05:28,840 --> 00:05:30,800
especially if you go on to have children

138
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:31,920
and that's something that in particular

139
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,840
I feel really passionate about because you know,

140
00:05:33,840 --> 00:05:35,880
as a child I grew up in like domestic violence

141
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,040
and just like witnessing addiction

142
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,800
and you know, narcissistic abuse and financial abuse

143
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,800
and so it's become something helping women have like

144
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,080
healthy sovereignty but also connection and interdependence

145
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,120
has been something that is just invaluable to me.

146
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,440
So I just love this work so much. (laughs)

147
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,480
- Yeah, something that I've always admired about your work

148
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,800
and I'll just say this like for our listeners.

149
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,800
Some of my listeners perhaps who have like

150
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,040
been with me for a while or just who know of my history

151
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,080
know that I used to be a dating coach back in the day

152
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,480
and I left that field because what was funny about it

153
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,320
was like when I wrote my book back in the day

154
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,400
a book called The New Rules of Attraction

155
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,800
as soon as it came out I felt like I had painted myself

156
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,240
into a corner because all of a sudden

157
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,560
there were like all of these sort of articles

158
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,000
or book reviews about me and I was like,

159
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,040
yay like publicity this is great for my book

160
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,840
but all of them were like the woman who can get any man

161
00:06:30,840 --> 00:06:32,120
she wants. (laughs)

162
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,640
- So I was like, oh my god, what do I do now if I fail

163
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,320
and so I actually had like a lot of my,

164
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:39,680
I mean I was young and whatever

165
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,000
but like I had a lot of my sort of like

166
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:46,120
am I good at this like tied up in whether I was winning

167
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,880
the approval of the person that I desired

168
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,560
and that obviously like that led to some over learning

169
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,080
of those patterns that was ultimately not healthy, right?

170
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,080
Like it's great to have like a structure

171
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:58,800
like know how to create a conversation

172
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,600
like there were valuable things about my work

173
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,040
you put like approach it with a playful spirit

174
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,320
and like this is fun let me like expand my skills

175
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,680
that let me like try and connect with people or whatever

176
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,320
but the minute you put that value on

177
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,160
whether I can get the person I want is like whether

178
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,920
whether or not I'm a fraud I was like oh my god.

179
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,840
And when I came across your work Gianna

180
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,360
like what I love about it so much is that

181
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,560
I've seen you at this point in like two different relationships

182
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,200
and also single and you have never ever linked

183
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,360
the value of either yourself or your work

184
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:32,840
to whether you're with a partner

185
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:37,400
and you're so clear on the fact that it really is

186
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,720
about how much you love your own life

187
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,000
and how much you love yourself

188
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,560
and how much you're in alignment.

189
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:47,080
And when you're in alignment you will naturally attract

190
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,680
things that joy and that passion for life

191
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:52,960
like draw in, right?

192
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,280
You will call in the right kind of partner

193
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:56,360
you will call in the right thing

194
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,160
and even if you're not with a partner right now

195
00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:59,560
like then that's fine.

196
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,880
Like there's nothing about that defines you

197
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,240
and that fact that it is that inner alignment

198
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,280
that is going to lead to those soul mate connections

199
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,160
right or to those just really super aligned connections

200
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:14,360
with another person.

201
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,480
And so I've seen you do this work

202
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,400
and you were actually like at the time

203
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:19,800
'cause as you said like we've known each other

204
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,320
online for a little while now.

205
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,480
At that time I remember being like this is maybe one

206
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,720
of the only love and relationship coaches I've ever seen

207
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,960
that doesn't put that emphasis on you need to get the guy.

208
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:34,760
Like every all the books out there

209
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:36,200
like the books from the 90s

210
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,240
the books from the 2000s like even you know

211
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,000
like Matthew Hussie and people like that.

212
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,760
And like I know the person who taught Matthew Hussie

213
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,680
is a friend of my name Adam Lyons

214
00:08:45,680 --> 00:08:47,600
at least one of the people who taught Matthew Hussie

215
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,760
and I've back in the day like I read some his content

216
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,440
out of curiosity and it's actually like not half bad

217
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,480
but it doesn't all of it is still like

218
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,280
I'm going to get you this result.

219
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,360
You are going to get the man right?

220
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:01,760
Get the like the rules right?

221
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,320
Get the ring on the finger like

222
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:08,280
it's just and it's so that attachment to outcome

223
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:13,280
is like the opposite of what actually is healthy.

224
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,480
So I'd love for you to share like more about that principle

225
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,680
that you stand by because I think it is what

226
00:09:18,680 --> 00:09:21,560
I think it is the key defining factor actually

227
00:09:21,560 --> 00:09:25,240
that puts your work into such a place of integrity.

228
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:26,880
- Thank you so much for saying that.

229
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:31,520
And like I love that we're able to have like this conversation

230
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,560
with a lot of like background context

231
00:09:33,560 --> 00:09:35,400
because we've known each other for so long.

232
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,800
Like when we were when we first met

233
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,680
like I was in a relationship with someone

234
00:09:39,680 --> 00:09:42,520
who I got engaged to that I was with for a while

235
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,280
and it was a very about eight years

236
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,720
and it was a very like beautiful like healthy relationship

237
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,960
but ultimately like I out and grew it

238
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,600
as I was kind of like refining like what I really wanted

239
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,960
it needed in terms of like specific partner qualities

240
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,800
versus like the fundamental foundation.

241
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,080
Like like that was stuff I deeply understood

242
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,960
very early on again just sort of like childhood stuff

243
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,760
where it's like the fundamental like healthy foundation.

244
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,240
I just have like the deep belief in the deep knowing

245
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,800
that like you know I've always used the word like soulmate partners

246
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,200
and like you know sometimes it's like we need relationships

247
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,200
to come into our lives kind of show us

248
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,000
and like help us refine our sense of style

249
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,520
and sometimes that's like highlighting wounds

250
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,880
or traumas or insecurities that we need to address

251
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:29,840
and sometimes it's helping us refine

252
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,240
like our specific preferences in terms of like lifestyle

253
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,520
and like partnership qualities

254
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:40,520
and I really am like anti the narrative

255
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,600
that it's like relationship endings are a failure

256
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,320
or like being single is like a dirty word

257
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,200
or embarrassing or shameful because I think that when we

258
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,760
first of all it's just bullshit and it's not true

259
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,520
for one but second of all I think that when we take that on

260
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,640
we start to seek connection from a really disempowered place

261
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:05,520
that's also inauthentic it's not from this place of like choosing someone

262
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,320
who truly is like a really good fit for you in your life

263
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:13,280
and vice versa it's I can't be alone or like I don't want to be alone

264
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:18,040
or like I need a relationship or to be married in order to feel like

265
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,880
I matter or like I'm not failing or that there's not something wrong with me

266
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,320
and like I think when we go into

267
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,160
because I'm of the deep belief personally

268
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,200
and don't get me wrong I've worked with so many women over the years

269
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,120
that have like actively been trying to get into relationships

270
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,400
for like 10 to 20 years and it's been hard

271
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,960
and that's like a different story

272
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,880
but I think in general most people can get into a relationship

273
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:48,520
but it's not necessarily like a high quality, healthy,

274
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,440
deeply fulfilling like match of a relationship

275
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,840
and so I think that when we are kind of like desperate

276
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,960
to be in a relationship we tend to kind of like lower our standards

277
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,920
and we start to kind of like lie to ourselves and self abandon

278
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,920
and to in order to have that and it may be like

279
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,760
soothes those insecurities and wounds

280
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,560
but in like in the long term bigger picture of life

281
00:12:10,560 --> 00:12:14,320
it really you know like you were saying before we got on the podcast

282
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,680
like the longer you get on a train going in the wrong direction

283
00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:21,400
like you're gonna have to come that like that far back you know

284
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:22,600
to get back on track so to speak

285
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,320
and I just really think it's not worth it

286
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:29,520
you know it's not worth it to like build a life with someone

287
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,720
that really doesn't match you and it requires like health abandonment

288
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,320
and I'm not talking about like healthy compromise

289
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,240
but I'm talking like you have to abandon like authentic things

290
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,040
that you need and want that you could have with the with the right person

291
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,080
and also too it's like you model that for your children

292
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,960
and your future children if you have kids right

293
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,760
and like you also just like radiate that vibration

294
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,760
into the collective consciousness and like

295
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,760
like that

296
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,920
no like it's just it's just not required

297
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,120
and so I think it's really important to be able to have

298
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,480
in order to have like deeply meaningful healthy

299
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,560
sustainable enriching connection

300
00:13:05,560 --> 00:13:07,480
which I think is the point of relationship

301
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,520
it's like something I say to clients all the time

302
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,280
it's like further together faster

303
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,280
like in a relationship it should be adding

304
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,080
like you guys should be better together than you are on your own

305
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,000
but it doesn't mean that you're missing anything

306
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,960
it doesn't mean that like on your own you suck

307
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:21,480
or that your life isn't amazing

308
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,560
or that like you're incomplete right

309
00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:25,400
but it's like a lot of the times

310
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:29,040
I deeply believe like a large percentage of people out there

311
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:33,240
like are not in the highest experience of relationship

312
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:34,560
that they could have

313
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:37,040
and it's because of things like that you know

314
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,320
and so I don't know like self love

315
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:40,800
and again going back to my podcast name

316
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:42,800
I really love myself like self love

317
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,960
is to me is an expression of the divine

318
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,160
where it's like when you value yourself

319
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:48,920
when you value other people

320
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,800
you are meant to like really take your energy very seriously

321
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,320
and protect about energy and like you know

322
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,280
when and especially if you're like a spiritually aware person

323
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,640
who has like a purpose in this lifetime

324
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,080
like you need that you need that clear head

325
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,480
you need that creative energy

326
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,880
you need that space to be able to like birth

327
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,760
whatever it is that you're here to do in this life

328
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,840
and if your relationships are like tugging on your energy too much

329
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,600
or like even holding you back and draining you

330
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,680
like that does impact like what I believe

331
00:14:15,680 --> 00:14:18,080
like what your soul came here to do in this lifetime

332
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,520
and like you know better like everybody is better

333
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,640
and we're all capable of that you know

334
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,160
yeah I agree with you 100% on that

335
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:26,720
and I've definitely been that person

336
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,160
who stayed in a relationship that was not right for me

337
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:32,280
out of scarcity I was very late bloomer in life

338
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,160
so I had those feelings of like well

339
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,920
it takes me a long time to get into a relationship

340
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,560
I'm very picky about who I'm attracted to

341
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,400
so it's hard for you know I can go

342
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:44,920
and I figure out later in life I'm like

343
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,440
oh I also have ADHD which means in some ways

344
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:52,120
I was self-medicating with crushes

345
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,680
like crushes would stimulate dopamine

346
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,280
and they would give me like a sense of like

347
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,920
purpose and a sense of like a reason to be alive

348
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,720
and without that I would feel like

349
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,440
I just I can't get anything done like there's no like what's

350
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:04,880
what's the point you know

351
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:10,480
and so I not knowing that it was like quite literally a neurochemical thing

352
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:11,920
that was going on for me

353
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:13,920
I would be like I have to at least have a

354
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,160
like even if I'm not in a relationship that's fine

355
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,080
but I have to have like a crush like something I'm working toward

356
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:20,520
you know someone that I like

357
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,120
so I can be this best version of myself

358
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,120
that I get to be when I feel motivated

359
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,800
and it wasn't a gosh it wasn't until honestly like

360
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,240
I think 2021 that I made the connection

361
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,920
between the dopamine deficiency and my anxious attachment

362
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,880
like no wonder I would get anxious like

363
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,680
about the idea of not having anyone there

364
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,040
because all of a sudden it's like feeling like

365
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,160
I'm locked in a room with the air being sucked out

366
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,520
you know like yeah like Jesus

367
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,320
and then I figured out I was like oh well if it's dopamine thing

368
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,160
can I just find other sources of dopamine

369
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:56,040
and yeah practicing magic making music all of those kind of things

370
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,240
but I'm like I'm so 100% there with you on like

371
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,640
if you're in a relationship that is

372
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,800
you're you're turning a blind eye to the things that are not working

373
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,080
and not just like problems to figure out or whatever

374
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,720
but like long term lack of compatibility

375
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,960
or like you had this a spark of attraction in the beginning

376
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,560
and now you can't like like go of it

377
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:17,760
you want it to be something more

378
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,600
but it's actually not lasting you pass the honeymoon phase

379
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,880
because there's nothing that was there beyond that surface traction

380
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,520
and like so hard so I'm right there with you

381
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,840
I'm so glad that you've made that a part of your work.

382
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:30,440
Yeah thank you for saying that

383
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,000
and I love what you brought up with like

384
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,040
neurodivergency because it's like

385
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,760
something that I really believe is that you know

386
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,560
we should be whoever like we feel called to be in this life

387
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:46,240
but I think that we are also like uniquely our own expression of self

388
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,000
and like and it's perfect and there's nothing wrong with that

389
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,960
and like but it's it's really about having like the conscious agency and choice

390
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,600
to like around your relationship decisions

391
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,120
and like I think what you're describing with like the dopamine

392
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,760
I think a lot of people can relate to that

393
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,440
like whether they identify as like neurodiverture or not

394
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,680
because it's like I find with my clients who are like

395
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:13,000
codependent or have codependent tendency if there's just such a unconscious habit

396
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:17,600
of like seeking that like dopamine that joy and like also that self worth

397
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,760
and that significance and also that like regulation and security

398
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:25,840
like through other people and it's such a powerful thing to be able to learn

399
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,720
and this is like a big part of the work that I do with people fundamentally

400
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:33,120
around relationships is to be able to what I what I like to call is like self

401
00:17:33,120 --> 00:17:36,000
source right like self source like consciously

402
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:41,120
those things that we have felt like a band like dependent upon relationships

403
00:17:41,120 --> 00:17:46,720
for like from a place of that causes us to kind of like abandon like what we really need

404
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:51,280
for that season of life or like abandoned certain standards in order to try to get that

405
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:55,680
like dopamine or validation or like whatever it is that's super important

406
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,720
and I love that you were able to make that connection and be like okay

407
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:03,040
like my dopamine gets to like come from like magic and like music and like these

408
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,640
other things that you know feel nourishing and give back and it's like this

409
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:11,440
reciprocal healthy relationship that doesn't require you to have to like be

410
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:16,560
funneling energy into a connection that may not be like bare fruit or have a

411
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,720
return that feels valuable to your life so I think that that's

412
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:26,640
freaking awesome and I love what you put it I'm just curious what

413
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:31,360
when you work with women who are stuck in that pattern where they're getting that

414
00:18:31,360 --> 00:18:35,200
joy or that dopamine from the crush from the relationship or whatever that is

415
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:41,440
I'm curious what sort of things you advise them to get that joy from

416
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:45,440
that are not dependent on partnership like if someone was in that pattern

417
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,880
what kind of things would you encourage them to explore everybody's a little

418
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:53,360
bit different but like what I like to do is help them pinpoint like the emotional

419
00:18:53,360 --> 00:18:57,200
needs that they're getting from that person right and so sometimes it usually

420
00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,880
boils down to like a handful of things it's usually like security

421
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:05,200
it's like dopamine joy like happiness, fulfillment, etc. or like a sense of

422
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:10,720
significance or like you know like value and you know self-worth and then it's like

423
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,400
kind of do a little bit of an audit in your day-to-day life and like thought

424
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:19,120
process and also lifestyle that where this is like actively where you're

425
00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:22,400
actively feeling the opposite or where you're craving to feel more of

426
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:26,560
the feeling in general and so that can like lead to a whole like rabbit

427
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,560
whole of like these deeper things that may be people have been using unconsciously

428
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:35,600
anyways using like a romantic partnership to like distract themselves from like

429
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,200
for example how do we two examples I think both are gonna be important

430
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:44,640
so when I was younger I had an eating disorder right so I I had just

431
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:49,600
under-eating like that over exercising like those kinds of things and it was like

432
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,120
my you know if anybody that knows anything about eating disorders knows a lot of

433
00:19:53,120 --> 00:19:56,960
the times those things manifest as a way to try to have control you know which

434
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,320
was made perfect sense for me and my childhood like I didn't have a sense of

435
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,640
the control and so that's what something I could control with myself and I had

436
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,920
these like chronic when I was younger these chronic like body image and

437
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:12,480
securities and this would like pop up in my dating life where it's like I would

438
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:17,040
unconsciously like default expects like men to not be attracted to me

439
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:23,520
which is like crazy and and so like I would just be like

440
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:28,480
waiting for a response from them and I would just be like on this anxious edge

441
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,240
that would be like really distracting and and I would just be like seeking that and

442
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:36,400
like putting my energy there and what I really needed to do which I did eventually is

443
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:42,000
like bring the focus back to myself to like address the fact that like my day-to-day life like

444
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,840
it in my head like I would look in the mirror every day and be like oh like I would be

445
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:50,800
criticizing myself like I would be having all this anxiety around like the way

446
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,240
that I ate that day or like whether or not I worked out hard enough and like I should

447
00:20:54,240 --> 00:21:00,240
just go work out more like and it was just this thing that's like self abuse right and like

448
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:05,440
that I really found empowered me a lot in my romantic life was to to address that and like really

449
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:10,560
move through those patterns once and for all and like another example that I want to share is like

450
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:15,360
because I see this a lot with client a lot of the times it's like women who don't love their life

451
00:21:15,360 --> 00:21:19,680
right like maybe they took a career path that takes up so much of their time and energy they

452
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:24,080
have a lot of burnout they have like you know maybe they work in the medical field or

453
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:28,560
in law or like in you know the way that they run their business that they're a business owner or

454
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:34,160
like they work in the corporate world and there's like this abusive work culture or like you know

455
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:38,080
they tend to like self-abandoned and just exhaust themselves like day-to-day out of like people

456
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:43,840
pleading and so it's like their life in general is just unfilling and so you know it's like they are

457
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:49,760
seeking they hyperfixate on like the romantic partner or like the situation chef or whatever it is

458
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,840
as a way to like kind of compensate for that and so they kind of feel powerless in the connection

459
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,640
to be able to like hold those standards where they're respecting themselves because it's like they

460
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:02,960
kind of feel like they need that to feel okay because they don't feel okay in their life they don't

461
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:07,120
like their life and so it's like you know something that I've done through relationship work is

462
00:22:07,120 --> 00:22:12,320
like helped clients start business it like help them like you know regulate themselves like in like

463
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:16,160
when they're working on Wall Street and they like the toxic work culture like being able to

464
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:20,160
like set boundaries and like not take certain things personally and like regulate themselves through

465
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:25,040
those things to manifest like different career opportunities and experiences and just different

466
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:29,280
emotional experiences and the environment so that way it's like they can approach their dating

467
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:36,320
life with more like personal power that I sense I love that yeah absolutely yeah I was thinking also

468
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:40,720
because I know that you've also started working with women around business and like like you were

469
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:46,000
saying before our patterns you know if they show up in our love lives like I have the saying I love

470
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,000
to talk about in the repatiting projects the way we do one thing is the way we do everything

471
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,240
and I know it feels like a real blanket statement but it's one of those phrases where

472
00:22:54,240 --> 00:23:00,720
even when I think it's not true like I always like keep finding more and more evidence of it being

473
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:06,720
true and I know for me starting the repatiting project like you know I had worked as a dating coach

474
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:11,760
before but I'd never really fully committed to like building a business it was more of a personal

475
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:16,080
brand and you can work with me as a coach like if you happen to find me through my blog or whatever

476
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:23,520
and when I started the repatiting project the funny thing was I had so many of my own trauma patterns

477
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:28,880
around like having clients come up that I had to deal with kind of like a baptism through fire

478
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,200
and thank goodness like the repatiting project was important enough to me that I was like oh no this

479
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,720
is like I have to get this information out there so whatever I need to learn like I need to learn

480
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:43,520
it on the fly but it was amazing how like yeah you don't think that it's the same thing but

481
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:50,160
it really really is I had to like and I had to learn to trust myself and be like wait do I know how

482
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:55,840
to set boundaries do I know how to have a healthy transaction that is mutually beneficial to both me

483
00:23:55,840 --> 00:24:01,600
and the client yeah of course I do okay well then let's just do that I had to like think myself through it

484
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:07,280
you know so so I love that you work with women around those topics too yeah because I have something

485
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:12,240
like the way that I see business and obviously like we're both like business owners but I believe

486
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:18,000
that it's like we create businesses that are you know they have a will of their own there's like a

487
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:23,200
consciousness that's like wanting to manifest and be collective for like collective good right and

488
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:29,200
so it's like I love that so thank you and so we feel called to like burst these programs these products

489
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:33,520
these services and it can be it can be music it can be art it can be courses it can be books it can be

490
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,840
fashion it can be all these kinds of things and like that's what we're supposed to be doing because

491
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:42,160
we feel called to it we want to it likes us up it gives us life it brings us joy and it and like

492
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:46,720
other people benefit from it and appreciate it even if it's whether it's be peeling or like an

493
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:52,080
aesthetic and green piece of art in your home that like holds the frequency of the room for you right

494
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:58,000
and so it's like if we are having these like anxious attachment patterns like around clients or

495
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:04,000
we're you know overgiving or we're like self-abandoning like through our transactions you know we are

496
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:08,880
not only like harming ourselves but I believe we're not holding like a healthy energetic standard

497
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:14,400
for the people that we bring in and how we bring them in and not impact the experience right of like

498
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,720
what like you know because it I and I feel like every business owner like has to go through this

499
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:24,160
in the beginning but like I know for me in early business I feel like I wouldn't attract the most

500
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:29,360
like ready empowered clients they would just be like I want to do anything to get a relationship

501
00:25:29,360 --> 00:25:34,560
and like you know and maybe be like a bit penny pinchy like disrespectful like why should I pay

502
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:39,680
you that's for that and it's like that like tell personal to me like I would take that personally

503
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,920
and be like oh like maybe I'm not enough and so I would like want to overcompensate in some way

504
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:48,640
and I would overgift which only just feed the dysfunctional dynamic whereas like the thing that

505
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,880
attracts in people who really like value and respect your work and like are like your soulmate

506
00:25:52,880 --> 00:26:00,080
clients if you will are people who like see what you do and like value it and like put that

507
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:05,040
route and and they pay you for it and it like just nourishes their life in some way but it's

508
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:09,920
required in order to attract that I believe like most of the time it's like you have to be respecting

509
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:14,720
yourself like you have to be holding those standards you have to be like you know for lack of

510
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,600
better way to put it and I don't really like language like this in general but I'm just kind of being

511
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:23,920
cheeky which is like you know you can't be like easy like you get and so it's like then like you

512
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,760
have to have standards with who you attract and that doesn't that doesn't mean that you will get

513
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:32,400
less it means you get more high quality people like and I've had that experience in my business before

514
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:37,200
where it's like you know there was a point in time where it's like I had I'd hit the six figure level

515
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:41,840
and I was like really wanting and feeling capable of more and I wanted more like I just knew that

516
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:45,840
there was more people I was supposed to be working with and I wanted to like almost double my rates

517
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,280
because that's just what felt really an alignment for the level of service I was providing for that

518
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:56,160
particular kind experience and like I had to it was funny I was like telling myself okay like I'm not

519
00:26:56,160 --> 00:27:01,120
even having like the level of points I want when I'm like pretty much abandoning myself and like what

520
00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:06,240
I'm charging and like whatever and how much I'm giving so like how could I think that like

521
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:13,360
business would be like pick up even more if I like held a higher standard and and I stated that

522
00:27:13,360 --> 00:27:17,760
pattern for a little bit and then I finally like it finally clicked for me where it was like

523
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:23,360
actually this makes so much more sense because like when I'm respecting myself and I'm respecting

524
00:27:23,360 --> 00:27:29,440
my work I'm even more like magnetic and attractive to people and that became the experience and I like

525
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:34,400
nearly doubled my rate and started booking out for the first time ever and like repeatedly booked out

526
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:42,640
again again again and I was like bam good I've done this long time ago nice oh my gosh yeah those

527
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:49,360
and it's the same thing it's the same sort of like well if I raise my standards fewer people

528
00:27:49,360 --> 00:27:54,080
are going to meet it like it's the same thing that happens in relationships and I know for me for a

529
00:27:54,080 --> 00:28:04,080
long time like the people I was dating and say my 20s there was definitely an element of like I feel

530
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:09,360
like I am going to feel secure in this relationship because I actually have my life together so much

531
00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:15,440
more than this person does like how could they possibly leave someone like me and the amazing thing

532
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:23,280
that I feel like all people kind of learn as we get a little bit older is that actually it's the

533
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:31,360
people that you lower your standards for who treat you worse. It feels like it doesn't make

534
00:28:31,360 --> 00:28:39,520
mathematical sense but somehow raising your standards and saying no I'm gonna have someone really

535
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:44,240
and having to like also expand your idea of what is possible that was such a big part of my own

536
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:50,880
repatterning was like looking to relationship model even fictional ones even like mortician gomes

537
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:58,240
atoms you know I was like I want that level of love and passion and security and like all the things

538
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:03,520
and yeah and being able to be like no that's that's that's possible there are people out there who

539
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:12,000
want that too and I'm actually blocking myself from those people by imagining that either they

540
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:18,160
don't exist or that I can only do as well as this sort of more compromising energy of like well

541
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:22,880
this person will really want to stay with me because they're not doing so great on their own you know.

542
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:27,920
Yeah yeah that's so real because like and I had to go through the same thing and honestly like

543
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:36,160
some people never like evolved past that like honestly regardless of age but I think that

544
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:43,200
it's like my core self like little Gianna like inner child Gianna she was she's like a big

545
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:48,480
lover girl giver like so generous so thoughtful like so loving and I had to learn like this

546
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:55,200
tournament of like when someone wasn't valuing me or like coming in with like reciprocity and like

547
00:29:55,200 --> 00:30:01,520
respect that that wasn't a sign to give more love to get them to you know and to just be like more

548
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:07,040
loving to get them to finally value me no because like nine times out of ten and it's a little bit more

549
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:12,800
complex than this but you know a lot of the times like people don't and it this is like very common

550
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:17,440
with like codependency and like even you know if you want to teeter into like topics of like addiction

551
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:23,680
as well but it's like a lot of the times like people don't change when they're enabled you know what

552
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:29,360
mean like they kind of have to have a bit of like stark reality where it's like no like you don't

553
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:35,600
get more love when you're an asshole or you don't get more love and like warmth and generosity when

554
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:41,600
you don't like nourish the and like respect and appreciate and reciprocate to that source of like

555
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:47,200
warmth and generosity and love and kindness right that's kind of a shift that we have to start to make

556
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:51,520
where the way it's like positioning yourself like the way that you and this isn't something that you

557
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:56,080
have to like overly think about strategically it's just something that you do when you do like

558
00:30:56,080 --> 00:31:00,080
when this concept lands and you do just respect yourself and value yourself where it's like

559
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:04,880
the same thing and it's like again like this applies to like business I feel like but it also applies

560
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:11,040
to relationships the way that we unconsciously position ourselves like creates how people treat

561
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:15,760
you know I've had clients who and again I don't knew people from this lens but I'm going to like

562
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:21,600
kind of speak to the common mentality out there which is like you know oh I bet that woman who

563
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:28,560
is like very successful and like in her late 20s or late 30s and like looks like a victorious secret

564
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:34,800
model or a Kardashian or whatever the beauty standards are now like men just you know are falling

565
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:42,160
to her feet or like that woman who is like older and like doesn't have a lot of money and like

566
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:47,920
doesn't have like abs like men probably she probably just has to like beg for love not necessarily

567
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:54,640
like I've had clients who would fit the archetype of the first woman who have had just really

568
00:31:54,640 --> 00:32:00,800
a trotious experiences with men because it's not about like the boxes you check it's about the energy

569
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:05,440
that you bring forward and I also and like I have a recent client example of this this woman who

570
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:13,680
is in her 60s and we we did some like relationship work for her poster boy and she like I don't

571
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:18,320
I wasn't surprised but I just like was so giddy and like had so much fun seeing it where it's like

572
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:23,520
men of all different like age ranges and like really successful loving generous men were just like

573
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:28,560
pursuing the hell out of her and it was because and she's now in a partnership that's been very happy

574
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:34,000
but she's now like a lot of the times it's like people think that you have to be perceived a certain

575
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:38,320
way and it's so much not about that's the way that you carry yourself it's the way that you like

576
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:43,600
unconsciously position yourself that determines like how people treat you and like also like

577
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:48,720
how you allow people to treat you because it's like it's so much about just the way that you carry yourself

578
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:55,920
you know yeah one thing I've noticed in a lot of your content is you use the the word soulmate a lot

579
00:32:55,920 --> 00:33:02,080
like soulmate connection soulmate relationship and there's I'm sure like there's a lot of different

580
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:07,920
ways that soulmate can be defined and I love like looking at all perspectives I'm just curious what is

581
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:14,480
your personal definition of a soulmate yeah I mean for me a soulmate and don't get me wrong like I

582
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:19,440
definitely believe there are people that we journey with through many lifetimes and they take on

583
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:27,040
like an unconditional role in your life to maybe like wound the fuck out of you to like help you

584
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:31,520
be more self-aware of the things that are going on within you and and there's an unconditional

585
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:40,000
soul level love in that but to me like a soulmate that I wish for everyone is the person who comes into

586
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:47,120
your life when you're at a place of healthy like reciprocal partnership and it's someone who

587
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:53,920
can see you and understands you and like values your unique characteristics and traits and also

588
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:59,360
like compliments your life and like fits into like what you need for yourself to be your best cell

589
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:04,640
but also like adds to it and you do the same for them and so that's really like I think that there's

590
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:09,040
a certain kind of like soulmate that I talk about that comes in when you're at a place of like

591
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:13,920
secure attachment you know like self-love polarity embodiment that feels authentic and right for you

592
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:18,960
as far as like masculine feminine energies and then it's like you also know yourself

593
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:23,440
you know what you want and then it's like the universe kind of sends in that person that like

594
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:27,920
largely fits you and then probably checks a few other boxes and you didn't even like consciously

595
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:32,400
think about it's like a little surprise and delight from the universe if you will and and that's the

596
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:36,880
person that you can really have long gemini with that's that's what I would determine us all made us

597
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:42,240
but in the way I talk about it anyway nice so it sounds like for you a soulmate is essentially like

598
00:34:42,240 --> 00:34:50,160
when you have removed perhaps the conditioning like the scaffolding the patterning that you may

599
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:54,400
have picked up through wounding you know through trauma throughout your life or just through like your

600
00:34:54,400 --> 00:35:00,560
life experience when you clear that distortion away so that your own soul is a very

601
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:09,280
clear resonant frequency then you attract someone who has that same clear frequency so your

602
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:16,240
souls can meet does that sound like kind of what you're talking about yeah I love that it's so

603
00:35:16,240 --> 00:35:22,000
like and I know like we've talked about this too like one of the things that that I'm a big big

604
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:26,320
big believer in is just the idea that like we are not our patterning we are not our programming

605
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:30,640
and so I also recognize that there are people who come into our lives there are people like you said

606
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:35,040
who are like they're soulmates but they actually come in to teach you a lesson like you meet up

607
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:40,000
in this lifetime to be like oh no I don't want that and like there's there's there's theories out

608
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,920
there that like like those are the people who actually love you the most on a soul level because

609
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:49,200
they're willing to be they're willing to be rejected by you in this lifetime so that you can learn

610
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:53,920
this karmic lesson in some ways it's a gift and I know that can sound a little bypassy but like there's

611
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:58,480
a part of that that also resonates with me on sort of like a non-dual level that I kind of like yeah

612
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:03,600
and then there's also people that I feel like maybe like we have traveled through lifetimes before

613
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:09,280
and maybe their soul just happened to pick up a lot of programming or patterning along the way

614
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:14,400
maybe they went through a lot of abuse as a kid maybe they're struggling with addiction maybe they

615
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:21,600
know whatever patterns that they have and what I love about where we agree on this is that

616
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:29,840
my feeling is like that person can still be your soulmate but it still requires you getting in both

617
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:36,400
parties getting into that clear resonant frequency before the relationship will actually work so

618
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:41,760
even if there is someone who's like oh that person who you know like there's all those memes online

619
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:46,320
that are like you know oh that that guy who's like not calling you back or like the dude who's like

620
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:51,920
you know whatever you know drug dealer you're obsessed with whatever is like not your soulmate

621
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:57,920
and I'm always like you know not necessarily because yeah yeah your soulmate can pick up these patterns

622
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:03,280
too but the important part is that you're not using the soulmate connection to justify

623
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:08,560
harm or abuse or distortion or lack of resonance in the relationship or like bad behavior on

624
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:14,160
their part or your part it's like okay if that is your if that is your soulmate then you better get

625
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:19,440
super clear because like you were saying before it's only when you get this clear in yourself like

626
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:26,400
enabling people doesn't help you better like be the lighthouse not the life raft and get so clear

627
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:33,040
and bright that that person if they are your soulmate will be inspired by you and be like oh damn I

628
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:39,280
got to step it up right yeah I mean amen and like like I feel like it last time when we hung out in L.A.

629
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:45,360
like we had such a deep conversation are like along this thread that I love so much oh my god yeah

630
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:50,640
I was like damn like art and gets it like the complexities and the nuance because it's like people can

631
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:55,360
be so black and white with relationships where it's like you know like something I used to say

632
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:59,120
like early in my earlier in my relationship coaching work a lot that we would kind of like have

633
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:04,320
I feel like funny side conversations about where I'd be like oh my god like the oh romanticization

634
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:10,320
of twin flame conversations and it's like I get it and again like there can be truth to that but it's

635
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:16,320
like also two people like who are kind of like longing for connection and feel like a bit of

636
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:21,280
desperation for love and like connection and belonging and maybe have like codependent patterns

637
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,600
and like ancient attachment patterns like it can be a little bit of an unconscious and not that

638
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:31,440
not that this is like the intention of like twin flame culture necessarily but it's like a lot of

639
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:37,120
times people can use that as a justification to just stay super hyper fixated on a certain

640
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:42,000
relationship in a certain connection that like honestly in a different place you probably wouldn't

641
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:48,240
even want that connection but then it takes a lot of self awareness because I'm so excited to

642
00:38:48,240 --> 00:38:52,400
even like say this like I know you're gonna get this and I yeah it's just so juicy it's something

643
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:58,560
I get asked a lot or I've been asked a lot about over the years is like can you manifest a specific person

644
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:04,720
right and I'm like the reality is is like if you are someone who deeply knows yourself you're deeply

645
00:39:04,720 --> 00:39:09,520
intuitive and like you know you know like your patterns you know where you tend to get anxious or

646
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:14,960
avoidant or like give your power away or like self abandon or whatever it is if you're overall a good

647
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:20,480
place and you feel a certain kind of bark or a certain kind of connection with someone there is a

648
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:25,280
level of recognition in that they're they're kind when you're when you truly are a conscious person

649
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:30,720
sometimes you're like I'm recognizing my person and like they're circumstances and my circumstances

650
00:39:30,720 --> 00:39:37,280
are not an alignment yet and so like I can manifest that person because they are a manifestation

651
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:42,720
of an embodiment of my deepest like souls truth and partnership and I can like smell it on them

652
00:39:42,720 --> 00:39:49,040
and so in that in that regard like when you do come even more into integration with your most

653
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:53,280
authentic self like you do you can call that person in and people do it I've seen it I've helped you

654
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:58,480
with it but a lot of the times and I'm telling most of the time these people like are honestly

655
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:03,680
in delusion and they're in just like self deception and self betrayal because they're using that

656
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:09,040
relationship as like a way to bypass like these things that they need to work on and this is why

657
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:14,800
nine times out of ten I paid a client don't hyper focus on a certain person focus on the archetype

658
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:19,680
and the the essence the energetic essence of what you want because if it is that person you can

659
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:25,440
be open to them they will come in but if it's not then they will fall away and that tends to be what

660
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:30,000
happens because a lot of the times people a lot of people don't have and it's not that they're not

661
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:34,480
capable of it but it's like a lot of the times people aren't hyper fixating and like getting

662
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:40,240
obsessed with certain people from from a place of true self recognition it's like codependency it

663
00:40:40,240 --> 00:40:46,080
anxious attachment it's like they're you know your traumas are like are very um

664
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:51,680
compatible if you will right and so I love that you kind of brought up like that nuance because it's like

665
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:58,000
a lot of the time people are either one one board or the other or it's like oh like that

666
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:04,400
incredibly harmful to my well-being person is the one or they're definitely not the one because

667
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:09,680
they would respect me if he wanted to he would and and life tends to be a little bit more nuance

668
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:15,280
than complex than that and people have people have issues and and it's so much about like the energy

669
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:19,840
and the standards and the boundaries that you bring into the connection that determine like the

670
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:24,800
real health and longevity of the connection and something I say a lot in my work is like the way in

671
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:30,560
which and this is why like being single is like honestly so fun because I'm like I can literally

672
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:35,280
attract whatever the fuck I want and I mean like like I can literally attract whatever the fuck I want

673
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:40,560
because of the energy like I put out and like you know someone can you know in my last relationship

674
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:45,680
as an example of this where it's like he he's told me he was like you know I thought I was like

675
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:50,720
damaged and was just this emotionally avoidant person but like he had this cycle of being like

676
00:41:50,720 --> 00:41:56,320
the avoidant in like an anxious avoidant dynamic and I like came forward to him and granted I think

677
00:41:56,320 --> 00:42:00,400
that like the stars aligned circumstantially to where we were a little bit more like disarmed with

678
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:05,600
each other but like I brought in like more of a secure attachment and also there was just an

679
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:11,680
an innate authentic connection there and so like he was not a boy with me at all it was quite the

680
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:16,080
opposite like he was he was very secure like if anything if I got a little avoidant he'd be like

681
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:21,760
what are you doing and I was like oh you felt that huh you know like and so it's like your energy

682
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:27,440
impacts so much of what you experience one of the things that Neil Strauss said not in his book

683
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:33,360
the game but in his sort of follow-up book The Truth which sadly was not nearly as popular as the

684
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:37,520
game was and because the truth it's it's a really great book and one of the things that he says and it is

685
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:45,440
trust is a leash that gets longer the less you pull on it that idea of like if you're not constant

686
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:50,240
like you don't get it's literally an energetic push pull thing right it's like if you're not

687
00:42:50,240 --> 00:42:56,080
tugging on someone or constant like validation or like need for security like there it's like

688
00:42:56,080 --> 00:43:00,800
oh hey where'd you like where'd you go like you give them the space to to come back and I want to

689
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:04,720
also talk about like you mentioned twin flame culture and I'm just going to say it man like twin

690
00:43:04,720 --> 00:43:12,080
flame culture is messed the f up like it is and it's because there are so many I'll just say it there's

691
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:17,920
so many cults out there because there are so many people who are especially in the dysregulated

692
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:22,400
times that we are living in there are so many people who are searching for that regulation or

693
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:27,600
security in a relationship and what they think of as a soulmate relationship and there are so many

694
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:33,280
people who are mistaking that limerence or that feeling of a high for a soulmate connection when it

695
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:38,000
isn't right when it's just like as you said either your trauma's meeting or that spark of attraction

696
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:42,160
or whatever it is because they haven't really experienced what a soulmate connection actually feels

697
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:47,280
like so they're like this must be it because it feels so intense and so there's cult literally

698
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:54,160
quite literally cults out there that capitalize on that and they're selling and this why it makes me

699
00:43:54,160 --> 00:44:00,800
so angry because I'm someone who has been on the twin flame path and when I started on it gosh roughly

700
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:08,000
10 years ago now I felt like I was out of my mind I've I was getting all these signs about like oh this

701
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:14,160
is the twin flame path you know just just do it and because like everything that I'd saw and read

702
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:19,760
about it in the culture just felt so backwards but what I I'm so very grateful that like somehow I

703
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:24,160
learned at least like the theory of it and the theory of the twin flame path of what you're supposed to

704
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:29,600
do is it goes like okay you meet this person and immediately all like you're wounding and patterning

705
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:34,160
comes up because there is this frequency of love between you but there like things are not gonna work

706
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:39,600
if you're both in these kind of anxious avoidant polarities and you know you've got to both get into

707
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:46,080
balance and so you do the inner work you release the patterning that is you know distorting that

708
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:50,640
sort of soul frequency that we were talking about and they're like and if you get there like if you

709
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:56,640
get to that place then the other person should too because you have that chord between the two of you

710
00:44:56,640 --> 00:45:04,800
and in my experience it doesn't like it doesn't go at the same time necessarily but like but the key is

711
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:10,880
and this is how like as a chaos magician my practice of chaos magic is built on the foundation of the idea

712
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:16,800
that I choose the beliefs that get me the results that I want and why found with a twin flame path

713
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:23,760
is the only result the only belief that got me to that place of total non-attachment and just

714
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:29,520
you know worrying about myself was the belief that your twin flame is not necessarily one person

715
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:36,720
it is whoever you attract when you are in this frequency of resonance because you may go through this

716
00:45:36,720 --> 00:45:44,800
the funny thing was jihanna I I got to a place where I'm like actually I don't think that belief is

717
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:53,760
categorically true but it has to be the belief in practice because you can't know if that person

718
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:59,920
really is that person or not unless you are a hundred percent willing to let them go if you're a hundred

719
00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:05,120
percent willing to be like I'm just going to get there and see I'm going to get there myself and if

720
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:10,640
it's not them then I was wrong about it and it was just limerance and I don't want them if they're not

721
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:15,120
actually that soul connection and the only way to find that soul connection is to get there so I

722
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:20,080
went through phases where I was like oh maybe I'm going through a few different twins who are simply

723
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:26,880
my mathematical polar opposite of whatever reflection of is like of the work that I've done on myself

724
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:33,360
and that was the belief that got me to that place and like I'm not right like I'm just say for

725
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:36,880
listeners whatever I'm like I'm like not ready to tell that full story yet and also like I want to

726
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:43,680
focus this on jihanna but I just want to validate the fact that like every twin flame thing that

727
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:48,480
I saw out there so much of it was just like put there your twin flame you must fight for this

728
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:57,280
connection I'm like that is the mathematical opposite of what you need to do like yeah so part of my

729
00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:01,920
like part of my whole thing is like going forward into a lot of what I'm going to be doing is like

730
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:07,680
I just want to rewrite the culture's entire notion of what twin flames are and what the path is to

731
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:11,840
actually do it because it turns out actually if you do it that way like it works one way or another

732
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:16,960
either they are your twin flame and then like stuff happens or they weren't your twin flame and so

733
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:21,120
you attract an amazing person from this place that you're in this soul frequency resonance place

734
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:26,720
of at that point like either way you win you know what I mean yeah exactly exactly like you know

735
00:47:26,720 --> 00:47:32,640
something that I just love everything that you spoke to and I love the term chaos magician like

736
00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:37,520
I'm gonna need to know more about that at some point maybe like oh yeah it just like we choose

737
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:41,520
the beliefs that get us the results that we want like we measure our beliefs and practices by

738
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:48,240
the results that they get us just that that title like resonates with something in me that I need to

739
00:47:48,240 --> 00:47:59,360
explore for others yeah love it but something that like I feel to be deeply true for me it's like

740
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:05,280
I know that like my soul came here to do certain things in this life that like I chose before

741
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:10,960
I incarnated in this physical body like I deeply believe that and I both deeply believe

742
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:17,120
part of like my Dharma in this lifetime for like collective good but also for like what my soul is

743
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:24,320
meant to evolve into in this life like relationships and romantic relationships are a big part of

744
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:30,880
that journey and that experience for me and so for me it would never gonna be my path to just like

745
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:36,320
marry the high school sweetheart you know what I mean like I think my soul's path has been to like I

746
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:42,880
needed to experience a lot of things to like activate past life with them that I already have and

747
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:48,400
like some of it that was just already innately there and I think my childhood really like activated

748
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:52,240
because that this is something that like I kind of like channeled if you will at one point which is

749
00:48:52,240 --> 00:48:56,880
you know because also for side context here like I was raised by psychic medium so I also have that

750
00:48:56,880 --> 00:49:05,280
like element of my existence that's like into it but something that I deeply believe is that

751
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:10,800
like sometimes like we experience things like very early in life that are meant to like turn on certain

752
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:16,000
things that we've already kind of had in past lives that we've already mastered that are part of like

753
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:20,880
our our soul like just think that we've already mastered an infinite body then they just get turned

754
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:25,360
on really quickly right and we're meant to have those be active and activated or like whatever we're

755
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:29,440
supposed to be doing having this life and like you know something that I've seen for example with

756
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:34,720
that is like clients who I feel like they get initiated in their childhood to be really enmeshed

757
00:49:34,720 --> 00:49:40,000
but I think that like the purpose of that is to activate their intuition to be able to be able to

758
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,600
like be sensitive to other people's energy but they're meant to keep that sensitivity without the

759
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:52,080
self abandonment integrate that but something that I have known to be true is that I for me personally

760
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:58,880
in my own journey with relationships is like the thing that I can that I always go back to is like

761
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:04,320
I'm going to like listen to myself and like take care of myself and be true to myself and like

762
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:09,920
myself and love myself respect myself and whoever that like leads me to and leads me away from like I

763
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:15,280
will always fucking trust that and like along the way like I've learned so much like relationship

764
00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:20,640
nuance and complexity around that where it's like okay like you know it's not just a black and white

765
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:26,560
like oh I healed myself and now like I don't attract like boys or like avoidance or like whatever

766
00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:33,760
anymore it's like people are a bit more complex than that and like you know I definitely believe

767
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:41,280
sometimes it's like we feel called to like stay open to a connection and like as we like stay true

768
00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:46,320
to ourselves like that connection can elevate with us and like you know and there's so much more

769
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:51,760
like nuance and complexity to relationships like you know maybe you can like recognize the essence

770
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:57,200
of someone who is married but they're not happily married but again that's where we get into some

771
00:50:57,200 --> 00:51:03,360
tricky waters because a lot of the times it's like you know do you actually is that married person like

772
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:10,480
your beloved or is there something in you that is self sabotaged into available connections

773
00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:14,080
and like this person you know in the back of your mind you could never have them

774
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:18,320
and so you feel compelled to just like drop your wall because there's no real risk you know what I mean

775
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:22,960
until it's like you kind of have to be able to really really get to know yourself and really

776
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:30,800
really call yourself the fuck out to be able to navigate like a bit of those complex nuance

777
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:37,200
waters if you will. Yeah and I love that the path forward for both of those possibilities is actually

778
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:43,200
the same like you don't have to know when you're in that space of like Russian limorance and whatever

779
00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:48,560
which like I've been there I was aunt that was you know very much you know in the beginning when I

780
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:52,800
was getting all these signs of like no this is the thing but you need to work on yourself and you

781
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:56,800
need to do this path and you need to not focus on this person or whatever you actually need to

782
00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:01,920
patch and get yourself into that place and like honestly I did it just because I was curious I was like

783
00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:10,560
if this if this actually works that's a game change. Yeah and and so the path for but like either

784
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:14,720
you work on yourself and you're like oh that was just me wanting an unavailable connection or it was

785
00:52:14,720 --> 00:52:21,120
like oh no I did this and actually things shifted and actually like wow I was I was right or whatever

786
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:31,920
do you see? So I want to ask you also a question what's that? A lot of people like don't know how to

787
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:35,600
like it's like I feel like when people typically talk about those conversations people are either

788
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:42,400
like he's a married girl stop you know or like oh yeah like it's definitely be the twin fame

789
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:50,240
claim to Lulu yes he's the one. Yeah oh my god me too I'm so glad that we're talking about it all

790
00:52:50,240 --> 00:52:55,840
this. I want to ask you a question because I know you and I have like a very friendly complimentary

791
00:52:55,840 --> 00:53:04,640
disagreement and that is on feminine men and maybe like maybe we just have different definitions

792
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:10,240
of what a feminine man is but for example and I know that like you've talked about like your work is

793
00:53:10,240 --> 00:53:15,600
for spiritually where feminine women like women who identify as feminine and I have a very strong

794
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:21,200
feminine aspect but I also have a very strong masculine aspect I feel like really pretty balanced

795
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:27,040
within myself and I'm attracted to men who also have both of those and I'm attracted to women too

796
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:32,720
I'm bisexual, pansexual, whatever I've been attracted to many different types of people but

797
00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:42,720
the place where I feel really the strongest attractions are to men who have a really strong feminine

798
00:53:42,720 --> 00:53:48,160
and a strong masculine so they compliment me like they they have both of those complimentary things

799
00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:53,680
to compliment me as well and I've seen like sometimes you'll describe like a feminine man is like a man

800
00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:59,600
who isn't capable of taking initiative or like being a leader in the relationship and that's

801
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:04,640
important to me too like I obviously I want someone who is going to have that sort of strong basis but

802
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:08,240
there's also times that like I like to take the leader I like to make plans or I like to do things

803
00:54:08,240 --> 00:54:13,440
like that and so I'm wondering um I guess I guess my question is like a bit of a two-parter like first

804
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:18,560
of all what is it that you mean when you talk about a feminine man in a way that like you're saying

805
00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:24,880
is not ideal in a relationship and then what sort of maybe a but I don't know advice or like

806
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:31,360
how would your guidance differ for someone like me who has that sort of non-binary nature and is

807
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:36,560
attracted to people who have both of those sort of masculine and feminine poles? Believe it or not

808
00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:42,080
like you know I know not to like reduce my self-duestrology but um I've got like a lot of

809
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:49,600
Gemini placements also leoplastements but um I'm a very like curious person who can like really see

810
00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:55,760
like the value in so many things and like you know I also have like attraction to women um I like

811
00:54:55,760 --> 00:55:01,440
can it I'm attracted to different aspects of different like qualities and frequencies and men

812
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:07,840
but to me like what it boils down to and like one thing I want to say before I a little caveat here

813
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:13,920
is I I'm a lately will don't believe in telling other people like what is their correct

814
00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:19,200
embodiment or in who they are in relationship I think that that is our sovereign

815
00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:25,280
right to know and choose for ourselves um because I'm not here to say like oh like the way that you're

816
00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:30,240
wired or like the way that you that's all that's wounded that's trauma like sometimes it is you know

817
00:55:30,240 --> 00:55:35,280
like I was definitely like in the past when I was younger I was very much just self-abandoning

818
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:39,760
codependent woman that wasn't me that was that was trauma and then there was times where I over

819
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:44,320
compensated into like a hyperindependence and like a more masculine energy if you will where I

820
00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:48,960
always had to be in control and relationships I was making the decision and to appoint that felt

821
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:53,280
good because I felt my sovereignty and my independence in that that I previously didn't feel inside of

822
00:55:53,280 --> 00:56:02,160
myself but it got to a point where in partnership I felt over like overextended and I was like over

823
00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:06,320
functioning and I think that that's a real issue for a lot of women in like traditional like

824
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:11,840
heteronormative dynamics where when you think of like the typical relationship dream that a lot

825
00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:16,960
of people will have which is like get married have kids like build a home together you know and then

826
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:23,040
when you start to talk about the labor around a home or like emotional labor in a relationship I

827
00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:29,680
think for women who want something like somewhat traditional in that way feminine energy it embodied

828
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:36,640
in themselves and like a masculine partner is very important because otherwise that's why that's

829
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:41,920
where that like statistic comes from where it's like women who get married and have children's life

830
00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:46,720
expectancy goes goes down and for a man it goes up and like correlation is not causation right like I

831
00:56:46,720 --> 00:56:51,840
think it's the underbelly the underworkings that feed into that outcome and for a lot of the times

832
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:57,360
it's women being unconsciously so conditioned to just like pick up the slack like emotionally

833
00:56:57,360 --> 00:57:04,080
around the home and so there's just certain things that like I think it's especially like when

834
00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:08,240
children are involved like there's just certain things when I witnessed this with my sister

835
00:57:08,240 --> 00:57:12,240
who just had a baby like a few years ago where it's like there's certain things like no matter how

836
00:57:12,240 --> 00:57:16,160
much your partner like wants to help and like wants to have your back and like wants to take

837
00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:21,520
something on for you there's just like biological elements where the child like needs the mom to do it

838
00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:25,600
right where it's like the breastfeeding right like the baby doesn't take the bottle like you know

839
00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:31,600
there's just certain things that like where I think a woman like when she is in that role like wants to be

840
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:35,360
and I'm not speaking for everyone here obviously but like she wants to be able to be that present

841
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:41,680
like nurturing available nourishing figure but it's like if she's taking on like so much more

842
00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:48,000
in a relationship dynamic and in a home like she her life force is just being immensely depleted

843
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:54,400
and so I think that it's like it's really up to you like as an individual to decide you know you

844
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:59,120
can you can appreciate and like feel attraction for like multiple different types of things but it's

845
00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:03,840
like at the end of the day like who do you want to be and like what is the life that you want to live

846
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:08,960
and like what partner is really complementary to that and for a lot of women that I've worked with

847
00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:15,200
like around feminine energy it's like they typically have been a woman where they're over functioning a lot

848
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:20,240
and it's like they they have a hard they have a hard time giving up control and they often are

849
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:26,000
lacking trust and respect towards like they're you know towards like the masculine and the relationship

850
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:32,000
and that has to be cultivated and it's often a past projection of old wounds but I think for men

851
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:37,280
it's like you know and again like I think I there's people who are just wired a bit differently and

852
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:41,520
feel called to like live life a certain way and that's fucking great and I think that's divine I think

853
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:47,040
that's perfect I think that's what you're supposed to do and be in half but it's like sometimes I think

854
00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:52,480
that there are just like women can have wounding the causes them to over function I feel like men can

855
00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:57,680
have and and these are just generalized statements obviously I think men sometimes in my experience

856
00:58:57,680 --> 00:59:04,160
and I've had male clients too and I've also seen how my clients in partnership like their masculine

857
00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:11,120
started to shift as they shifted these energy but it's like I do believe sometimes you know

858
00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:14,800
and there's different factors that go into it it can be like health hormones it can be

859
00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:23,200
trauma but it's like where men like a natally would feel some some men would a natally feel better

860
00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:28,480
like feeling more in this like masculine role if you will being able to make decisions be decisive

861
00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:35,280
take charge and like and handle certain things but they don't because maybe they they don't feel

862
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:39,760
confident they feel like a bit amatulated and maybe that started young like in their childhood with

863
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:43,280
their relationship with their mother where their mom was always like jumping down their throat and

864
00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:47,440
they go into their wounded little like inner little boy that's like I'm just shutting down I'm going

865
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:51,920
to go play video games and go to my room you know like that kind of energy and like like the passive

866
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:57,680
like people pleasing man who's like whatever you say honey whatever you say honey and it's like

867
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:03,680
that might avoid conflict but it's not like healthy relationship structure for that kind of dynamic

868
01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:08,240
so I think of a day like to be honest I know I know you said like a plate like a playful respectful

869
01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:13,360
like disagreement like I think we are actually like more in alignment than maybe we thought we were

870
01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:19,120
I think that it's just yeah like a bit more nuance and I just think it boils down to like

871
01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:25,040
personal preference because again like I don't believe because that's like Republican shit to be like

872
01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:29,760
this is how like this is your role as a man that's your role as a woman and if you're not that role

873
01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:32,480
there's something wrong with you and you need to heal like I don't believe in that like I think that

874
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:37,920
that's that's our own that's our own like whatever like I don't know you're so calling better than

875
01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:42,160
you do but like if something that I say like Revan needs to see you hell yeah you know I got your back

876
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:48,800
I can we can we can work on it it sounds like your definition of feminine in this context is like a

877
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:54,480
feminine man that is in a not so great way is someone who is maybe kind of avoid it's almost like

878
01:00:54,480 --> 01:01:00,480
an anxious avoidant polarity but instead of it being the push pull between like attention and attachment

879
01:01:00,480 --> 01:01:06,160
it's it's the push pull between making effort in the relationship that the woman in some dynamics

880
01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:12,720
like this has to overcompensate for a lot of leadership because the man feels afraid to step up

881
01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:18,160
and it's so funny because when I think of feminine men I think of artists and creatives I think of

882
01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:25,360
like Prince I think of David Bowie I think of men who actually have accomplished incredible things

883
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:31,360
and like in David Bowie's case was completely devoted to his partner right I think also of like

884
01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:37,840
in more contemporary standards I think of like right now like K-pop is having such a surge you know

885
01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:42,720
in the US like probably thanks to K-pop demon hunters which is such a great movie and I look at

886
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:47,680
the culture that I like I got so interested in being like oh like this is really neat what's this and

887
01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:55,360
the the K-pop idols like the men who are K-pop idols like they work so hard like the amount of

888
01:01:55,360 --> 01:02:01,760
creativity that they have to put out on such like crazy schedule and everything like that it's just

889
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:06,880
it's like the last thing that they are is passive right but they have to be sort of like everything

890
01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:10,480
they have to be they have to be hard but they have to be soft and they have to be cute but they have

891
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:15,280
to be sexy and they have to be all these I'm like and I look at that I respect that so much because of

892
01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:20,720
my former work as like a dating coach I remember like holding myself to being able to be all of

893
01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:26,000
these different archetypes in order to you know to to be attractive and to channel that into a creative

894
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:32,560
career is just like it's just such an an amazing feat so I don't think of them in Indian men as

895
01:02:32,560 --> 01:02:38,640
anything about slacking off I feel like it's a cultivation of intuition and a cultivation of

896
01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:43,520
attractiveness in a way that a lot of overly masculine men often don't think about like they might

897
01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:47,520
dress up in a suit they might look good right they might be like yeah football player on the field

898
01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:52,640
people might be into that but feminine men with a strong feminine aspect like they think about style

899
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:56,880
and aesthetic and like a completely different way and and as a woman I'm like I feel seen by that

900
01:02:56,880 --> 01:03:01,200
like you actually know how much effort I put into myself I'm not just like doing this for someone

901
01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:07,520
who doesn't get it you know so yeah so maybe that's where we ultimately agree we just have different

902
01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:13,440
semantic definitions of what feminine means I think that it is a bit like semantic is a good word for

903
01:03:13,440 --> 01:03:18,000
it because it's like is that feminine energy or is it wound up masculine because like whenever I

904
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:22,480
talk of clients about like masculine and feminine energy I always go back to the example where it's

905
01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:27,280
like we need both right and I think we should all have both inside of us right where it's like the

906
01:03:27,280 --> 01:03:33,040
the feminine is like the intuition she's the flow she's the and I think we should all have like

907
01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:38,160
both right but it's like overall like in the relationship container like the feminine woman takes

908
01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:42,800
on more of these traits and it erbodies more of them in the relationship dynamic but you know

909
01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:48,000
she's the intuition she's the flow she's like the intuitive oracle she's the sealer she's the

910
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:53,440
presence she's the sensuality she's like in the present moment and then you know and she's like

911
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:58,160
the river flowing through the river river bank whereas like the masculine is the structure he's the

912
01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:03,680
container he's the river bank that holds the water right and so it's like he might be more of like

913
01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:09,440
the problem solver linear thinker like the the action taker the leader whatever but it doesn't mean

914
01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:13,280
that like she doesn't have those traits and it doesn't mean that he doesn't have those traits but it's

915
01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:17,440
like that's where they kind of complement and support each other really well and then it's like you

916
01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:22,080
know the feminine without the river bank right the water she just turns into a puddle and evaporates

917
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:27,040
whereas like the masculine without the river like he's just like an ugly dirty ditch right

918
01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:31,680
you know what I mean like so it's like we need both is that right and it's like we all have and I

919
01:04:31,680 --> 01:04:38,240
think we all have like both but it's like I know for me specifically I had a relationship like this

920
01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:45,680
where I really got like I really loved like the emotional element to a man like at the time because

921
01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:50,480
I previously only dated like a voida yeah I kind of like went from one extreme to the other in a way

922
01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:55,360
where it's like I felt like I was just being this big like emotional spaceholder and so it's like

923
01:04:55,360 --> 01:05:02,240
to me it was like a fine line between in my own relationship experience of like okay like I love a man

924
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:08,480
who's aware and in touch with his emotion and and is creative but ultimately his emotion like don't

925
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:14,080
hijack his ability to like you know keep his eye on the prize to be able to like be focused to like

926
01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:20,480
lead himself in his life to have like ambition to have focused and drive and will and like

927
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:26,560
goals and you know what I mean and so I think it ultimately does well down to a bit of snitch for sure

928
01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:32,480
but I like I love I love that we're like flushing salad me too oh my god I wanted to like have this

929
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:36,800
this conversation with you for a while because I know just to my listeners out there like Gianna and I

930
01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:41,120
also like we always joke that like if we ever go out together like we will never compete for

931
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:46,640
the same man like we're we will be the best wing woman because we have completely very very

932
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:51,280
different types so we're we're gonna be we're gonna when she moves to LA I'm keeping my fingers

933
01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:56,000
crossed when that day happens we're gonna like we're gonna be the best wing woman ever well I want to

934
01:05:56,000 --> 01:06:01,280
bring on our producer Tomi to ask her question at the end of the episode and we've gone like all over

935
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:05,520
but I love the fact like I didn't want to stop this conversation even though I try to keep the episodes

936
01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:10,000
around an hour but like we were in flow and it was so great so but now I'll go ahead and hand it

937
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:15,600
over to Tomi to ask her question yeah I would like to circle back to the like feminine man

938
01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:22,720
masculine woman dynamic and I'd be curious your thoughts on how you think that applies to trans people

939
01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:29,120
like personally I'm someone who I was only able to start accomplishing things in life or like

940
01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:35,440
really put myself in that position of power as I embraced the feminine side that I was often

941
01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:42,240
made to feel ashamed of or I had to suppress so I don't know how much you work with trans clients

942
01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:48,320
but I'd love to know how you think that plays into that dynamic yeah no I love this question

943
01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:53,680
yeah I mean I've had all different kinds of clients over the years you know LGBTQ plus like

944
01:06:53,680 --> 01:07:00,960
all like all the things and what I really come back to is like again like I really really just think

945
01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:07,680
that it's it's up to us to be like our authentic expression of who we are in life and in relationships

946
01:07:07,680 --> 01:07:12,800
and so I don't believe in telling people like you need to be more masculine in this way you need to be

947
01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:19,200
more feminine in that way but it's like I think sometimes if we have like an attraction towards like

948
01:07:19,200 --> 01:07:25,200
I'll use myself as an example like I have always been attracted to masculine men but it's like when

949
01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:30,080
I was younger I had a lot of like abuse through like a masculine father figure growing up

950
01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:37,280
and as a result like I kind of would be like have this push pull with masculine men and so I would

951
01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:43,120
be like I'm just gonna date people who aren't really like giraffed and don't like have this like

952
01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:48,560
authoritative presence because I associated that like authoritative presence with abuse right and

953
01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:54,320
like not feeling safe and so I kind of like went to the optic stream and with like date men that were

954
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:59,200
very passive and then I would find like oh I'm so like depleted in this dynamic because it's not

955
01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:06,080
it doesn't feel compatible with my like authentic wiring right and so for me like my journey

956
01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:13,040
personally was doing that work too be like what do I really want? Who am I really? And like who's

957
01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:18,240
going to fit me the best ultimately in a in a relationship dynamic you know does that make sense?

958
01:08:18,240 --> 01:08:23,920
Yeah I think so. Okay well if there's anything you want me to clarify just let me know.

959
01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:28,640
And maybe maybe ultimately I think that's like the common theme of what this discussion kind of

960
01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:33,360
wraps up to like especially as we're wrapping up is Tomi that for you like femininity is your

961
01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:39,520
that authentic soul resonance is expression for you so for you like being in your femininity and you

962
01:08:39,520 --> 01:08:45,680
know attracting a partner that maybe mirrors you in a way that is appropriate like for your own soul

963
01:08:45,680 --> 01:08:50,320
like that is a resonant with your own soul and like for me being non-binary the fact that I'm

964
01:08:50,320 --> 01:08:56,880
attracted to people who are you know also like rather androgynous like I am and for Gianna being

965
01:08:56,880 --> 01:09:01,360
someone who is hyper feminine you know again like I was like oh I'm shocked she's not wearing pink

966
01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:05,920
today it's the only time I've maybe seen you like not wearing pink you know to be able to attract

967
01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:11,120
what you want and that at the end of the day it really is about removing the programming and conditioning

968
01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:15,280
that tells you that you need to be anything that you aren't and that when you are in that soul

969
01:09:15,280 --> 01:09:22,000
frequency that's when you do attract the things that are most resonant and bring you the most joy.

970
01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:26,480
Gianna I want to thank you so much for being on this conversation today so anything I didn't
