Do you feel uncomfortable dating more than one guy at a time? Well, my guest today thinks you should be dating 3 guys at once and she tells you why! 

My guest on today’s podcast is Psychologist, Dr. Diana Kirschner. Dr. Diana has been featured on Oprah, she is a reoccurring guest on the Today show and she starred in a PBS special on LOVE which was based on her best-selling book Love in 90 Days. Dr. Diana has just released a new book called Find Your Soulmate Online in 6 Simple Steps

She has helped thousands of successful women date and meet terrific partners, to deepen their existing relationships and to create a lasting love.

 

The Most Important Thing a Successful Woman Can Do to Find a Lasting Relationship  [3:01]

Women are often blinded by the myth that true love is just supposed to happen to us. Dr. Diana says it's a bunch of BS. The best thing successful women can do to find a lasting relationship is to get a mentor. Women get mentoring for work but not for love and love is more difficult than work. 

Our wounded inner child is so hungry that we ignore the things that don’t connect with the guys we date. If we focus on creating our Diamond Self-Identity we create our own possibilities for who we are in the world. 

 

Why Does Brain Chemistry Make Women Make Bad Choices? [9:30]

Oxytocin is a bonding chemical which is released in the body during sex, when touching another person and when you have a child. It is a chemical designed to physically tie you to another person. To avoid this “drug” being released when you are with the wrong guy, Dr. Diana recommends dating three guys at the same time but not having sex with any of them. 

 

The Discovery & Learning Process of Dating [17:58]

Dating three guys at the same time is fun and full of discovery. Successful women will learn about their own wants and needs as well as about which guys rise to the top. Dr. Diana says your dance card doesn’t always have to have the same three guys on it. If one guy drops off you can always start dating someone new. Plus, there is nothing better for your self-esteem! 

 

4 Ways to Heal Heartbreak [22:55]

1. Tell your story to a loving friend and avoid isolation. 

2. Meditation or another spiritual practice can be soothing. 

3. Get active to stimulate your endorphins.

4. Keep your calendar full.

You know you want to redo your bedroom. Why not make it into a sensual love space?

My guest on today’s podcast is Interior Decorator and a Love Coach, Katie Tiki. Katie is the author of Love By Design: 10 Things You Can Do in Your Home Now to Manifest Your Man and host of the Great Men Do Exist: Create a Space for Love show. 

Katie is a fierce believer in love attraction And can explain how you can manifest love through interior design? 

 

What You Can Do to Make A Space to Attract Love [4:25]

Katie says, “everything thing around you is a mirror for what is inside.” If you know what type of man you are trying to bring into your life put imagery of the experiences you would like to have around your house.

Energetically make space for the man you want. Women should keep their instrument of sensual pleasure close at hand. Candles, honey dust, whatever makes you feel sexy make sure it is in your immediate environment.  

The way we treat ourselves is how we attract people that treat us the way. If wearing silk and lace makes you feel sexy then go for it. And, get rid of your clutter! Clutter in your space is not good and will stress you out. It's taking up space in your mind. The more space you have in your environment the more space you have to attract what you want. 

Make an amazing bachelorette pad.   

 

The Ex-Husband is Gone So Be Done With Him [11:24]

Just go ahead and remove anything that reminds you of a love gone awry. Freshen up your space, change your environment and set yourself up to win. 

You can manifest the most amazing man ever. Your perspective makes all the difference. Ladies, reclaim your do-over. 

 

Do Not Be Afraid to Be Vulnerable [16:56]

Consider how vulnerability can show up in your environment.   It's a great way to make a real, deep connection. It is a myth that it takes a long time to find love. It doesn’t have to. 

You notice your environment subconsciously all the time because you live in it. Make it conducive to attracting the love of your life! 

Release anything that no longer serves you.

Love By Design: 10 Things You Can Do in Your Home Now to Manifest Your Man by Katie Titi

Has time, or the lack of it, become your enemy? 

Do you have trouble making your love life a priority because of your work, your kids, and other responsibilities?

Do you feel overwhelmed all the time? 

My guest on today’s podcast is Time Management Coach, Dr. Sarah Reiff-Hekking. Sarah is the Founder of True Focus Coaching, a Speaker, Coach and a Clinical Psychologist. She has 20 years of experience in helping people figure out strategies to help them stop hiding in overwhelm.

Sarah believes smart women need to find a time management system that works specifically for them.  Solutions are found by paying attention to the present moment and getting rid of all the extra shit that isn't at the core of your life. 

  

Which Type Are You? [6:49]

Procrastination and overwhelm become big issue's because they make you cloudy and keep you from taking the next step in your life. A lack of self-trust is often at the core of these issues. 

Many of us are so crazy busy we don't leave enough space in our day to do the most important things. (Like find a life partner!)  Some of us don't know we are avoiding taking action towards what we want because we are too frozen. Some of us show up and do whatever happens to come our way or some of us do anything but what we had planned.  These are emotional pieces of time management. 

Which one resonates with you? What triggers you to procrastinate? 

Chronically single women often don't trust themselves when it comes to dating.  

 

We Are All Wired Differently [17:56]

Have you been telling the same story about your differences and limitations around being late, pulling all-nighters or always being on time? Well, it’s time to change your story. Everyone is different and should focus on time management skills that work specifically for them.  

5 Steps to Bust Through Procrastination [23:00]

Sarah says it is possible for us to get better at getting what we want. We just need to set up support and accountability in your environment. 

 

1. Find the beast. 

2. Calm your inner fear discussion. 

3. Engineer your containment system to be positively focused. 

4. Get support.

5. Keep restarting until you are where you need to be. 

Set up your environment to support a positive mood.

There are many ladies who can identify with Kat’s problem in her on again, off again relationship.  

If you have ever been strung along by a guy you love it is really important you listen to this episode. 

 

Kat’s On Again Off Again Guy [1:36]

Kat is in an on/off relationship. She doesn't know who he sees when they are "off". She says she wants to move on but she is in love with the guy. She just wants to be in a fun relationship with someone who cares about her. 

Her guy picks a fight when he wants to go away and then sends a text a few days later. He says he’s done but never allows Kat to move on.  

He knows she’ll keep coming back no matter what crap he pulls.  

 

Why Kat Gives Up Her Power and Dignity [7:17]

Kat is in a romantic rut. She is giving up all her power and dignity and allowing the guy to push her in one direction and then pull her into another. But, why is she allowing herself to be treated this way? 

She feels sad, broken and that she has wasted years on him. 

Getting Over A Romantic Rut

1. Write it out. 

a. What do you think?

b. What do you feel?

c. What do you do?

2. Use your Choice Points to get what you want.

a. Don’t react, respond.

Kat doesn’t realize how much power she has! 

 

Kat’s Vision for a Romantic Future [22:23]

It’s extremely important for Kat to get out of this romantic rut and find a partner who wants to be in a loving and committed relationship. She wants someone she can count on to have her back. 

Everytime Kat does something not in alignment with this vision she is actively moving away from what she wants.
