Why the Wrong Person Feels So Right: Love, Patterns & Choosing Better with Jena Jake

Why do smart, successful women keep finding themselves attracted to the wrong people?In this episode of Mind, Money & Medicine, Favour sits down with Jena Jake, therapist-trained Compatibility Strategist and creator of the Love Smarter framework, for a candid conversation about attraction, relationship patterns, boundaries, and self-trust.Jena challenges the idea that finding the right partner is simply about chemistry or luck. She explains why the wrong person can feel so right when they trigger something familiar, why we sometimes ignore obvious red flags, and how our past experiences can influence who we choose.We explore Compatibility Over Chemistry, what personality science can reveal about relationship fit, how to stop auditioning for someone’s love and become the chooser instead, and how to set boundaries without guilt—especially when you’ve spent years putting everyone else’s needs before your own.If you’ve ever wondered, “Why do I keep choosing the wrong person?”, “How do I know if someone is actually right for me?”, or “Am I asking for too much?”, this conversation will make you think differently about love.Because as Jena puts it: Love isn’t luck. It’s alignment.Connect with Jena Jake🌐 Website: Jena Jake’s Website⁠
