If They Cheated, Can You Ever Trust Them Again? | Rewind

Have you ever stared at a text message for 20 minutes trying to decode it and then another 20 minutes trying to figure out how to respond to it? In this week’s episode, I dive into the obsession and overthinking that can happen in dating, when every text, silence, and tiny interaction suddenly feels loaded with meaning. (And yes, I act out the entire internal meltdown we’ve all had while trying to craft the “perfect” reply.)More importantly, I share a powerful framework I teach to my coaching clients called the “CALM Method,” designed to help you stop spiraling and regain emotional control. We explore the idea of the “bodyguard," which is the protective part of you formed from past experiences that tries to keep you safe, but often also creates anxiety. I’ll walk you through practical steps to calm that fear, reconnect with yourself, and focus on real compatibility instead of fantasy. ---►► If you want to stop feeling invisible on the dating apps, get out of situationships, and get real commitment, check out my free online masterclass Dating With Results: DatingWithResults.com Hosted on Acast.

A viewer recently asked me: Is there a way to spot an avoidant before you fall in love with them? The truth is, early avoidant behavior can quietly trigger a sense of unworthiness, making us feel like we have to win someone over. Sometimes, what feels like “falling” for someone isn’t about how right they are for us, but how uncertain we’ve started to feel around them. In this episode, I break down how to recognize avoidant patterns before you get too invested and why it’s not always as simple as it sounds. You’ll learn the key signs to watch for, but more importantly, I’ll share the deeper question you should be asking yourself in early dating. It's a question that puts you back in control and helps you navigate modern dating with clarity and confidence.---►► Get Out Of Your Situationship and Get Commitment GetCommitment.com►► Transform Your Life in 2 Powerful Days.

This episode is unlike anything I’ve done on this channel before. It explores the lessons I’ve learned from my many visits to Japan, including my most recent trip last month. From the power of doing less to a deep sense of collective responsibility, Japan has reshaped how I think about my relationship with others, myself, and life itself. At the same time, I reflect on the dangers of romanticizing places we don’t fully live in, much like romantic relationships that feel distant or out of reach. You’ll not only learn more about me, but also walk away with meaningful insights that may help you better navigate your own life. I’m so excited for you to listen. ---►► Sign up for my upcoming FREE "Year Of Love" virtual event happening on April 21.
