The Minute You Decide You Want Love, Watch What Shows Up, Ep. 73

from Fiftysomething Love | Everything Dating, Sex, Love, Men, Health & Marriage for Women Over 50 · host Diane Brandon Moody

Send us Fan Mail The second you truly decide you want lasting love, everything that isn't love comes marching straight at you. The bad dates. The disappointing texts. The clowns. The little voice that says don't bother. That's not the universe telling you to quit. In this episode, I make the case that it's the exact opposite, and that how you handle the mess that shows up is what determines how fast love actually finds you. Inside, I get into: Why the obstacles pile on right after you commit to wanting something, and what that avalanche is really telling you. The gym-in-January truth about your own brain, and why willpower was never going to be enough. The one thing she insists you stop taking personally, because it was never about you in the first place. And the step most women skip, the one that's the difference between wanting love for another decade and actually finding it. It's part pep talk, part loving kick in the pants, pure moi. Then come do the real thing with her, live: Same Man, Different Outfit, a free class this Thursday, July 9 at 7 p.m. Central. If you keep ending up with the same kind of man no matter how hard you try not to, this is the hour that explains why. Sign up at dianebrandonmoody.com.
