    Will People Still Love You If You Stop Putting Them First? | Rewind

    One of the hardest things about people-pleasing is the fear of what might happen if you stop. What if someone gets upset? What if they pull away? What if the relationship changes? In this episode, Matthew, Audrey, and Stephen explore why so many of us struggle to set boundaries, speak honestly about our needs, and tolerate conflict in our relationships. They discuss how people-pleasing often begins as a way of feeling safe, loved, and accepted, and why it can become such a difficult pattern to break. The conversation explores the hidden costs of constantly keeping the peace, the surprising rewards of disappointing people, and why authenticity tends to attract healthier relationships while exposing the ones that depend on your compliance. At the heart of the episode is a powerful question: Who is in your life because you always please them, and who is in your life because they genuinely love you? If you've ever struggled to say no, worried about letting people down, or felt responsible for everyone else's happiness, this episode is for you. --- ►► Matthew Hussey’s free Three Relationships newsletter isn’t just about dating—it’s about creating a life you love.

    How To Flirt Effortlessly in Everyday Life | Matt Monday

    More and more people are saying the same thing: they're tired of the apps and want to meet someone in real life. The problem is that after years of outsourcing the earliest stages of dating to our phones, many of us have lost our flirting muscle. We're worried about looking awkward. We overthink what to say. We wait for the perfect moment that never comes. And we've become so focused on avoiding rejection that we often miss opportunities right in front of us. That's why, in this week's episode, I share 5 principles that can make flirting feel less overwhelming and a lot more natural. Not clever lines. Not manipulative tactics. Just small shifts that can help you create more opportunities in your everyday life. If you've ever felt rusty, awkward, or unsure of yourself when meeting someone you like, this episode is for you. By the way, I'd love to know: What's the hardest part of flirting in real life? --- ►► Try Matthew AI for 24/7 coaching and advice anytime at AskMH.com ►► Join the Love Life community and get monthly coaching at JoinLoveLife.com Hosted on Acast.

    Is going no-contact with family a mistake or necessary? | Matt Monday

    One of the biggest misconceptions about family estrangement is that people do it lightly. They don't. And for many, the reality is far more painful… The truth is, most people don't create distance because they stopped caring. They do it after years, sometimes decades or even an entire lifetime, of trying to make the relationship work. The tragedy of estrangement is that it's often not a choice between connection and distance. It's a choice between preserving a relationship and preserving yourself. In this episode, I talk about why the growing backlash against estrangement misses that reality, and why what looks like ruthless rejection from the outside is often deep heartbreak on the inside. If you've ever struggled with the guilt, grief, or bittersweet relief that comes with creating distance from someone you love, I hope this conversation helps you feel less alone. --- ►► Try Matthew AI for 24/7 coaching and advice anytime at AskMH.com Hosted on Acast.

    Are You Settling in Your Love Life? | Rewind

    For years, when I signed copies of Get the Guy, I would write the same message: Never settle. I still believe we should never settle for bad behavior, mistreatment, or a relationship that doesn't make us happy. But over time, I've come to see the idea of "settling" a little differently. These days, we're surrounded by endless options. And while that sounds like a good thing, it can make us constantly wonder if there's someone better just around the corner. As a result, we end up overlooking genuinely great people because they don't meet every requirement on our list. In this episode, I explore the difference between settling for someone and settling on someone—and why that distinction may be one of the most important keys to happiness in love. If you've ever wondered whether your standards are helping you or hurting you, or whether you're waiting for a version of love that doesn't actually exist, this episode is for you. --- ►► Every Friday, Matthew Hussey writes a personal letter to help you strengthen the three most important relationships in your life—with others, with yourself, and with life itself.

    The Small Rule That Will Change Your Life | Matt Monday

    Most people spend years trying to change their lives by making dramatic, big moves. Yet even after those big moves, they find themselves facing the same frustrations, the same fears, and the same emotional patterns they thought they had left behind. Why does this happen? Well, there's something we all do that quietly keeps us trapped in the same experience of life, even when everything around us changes. Over the last 18 years of coaching, I've become skeptical of any advice that promises instant transformation. Real change is rarely dramatic and overnight. In fact, it's often so subtle that most people overlook it entirely. I call this subtle change "The 5% Rule." It reveals how a surprisingly small adjustment can completely alter the direction of your future. In this week's episode I breakdown what the 5% Rule is, how to use it, and how it can change the trajectory of your life even if your day-to-day life seemingly looks the same. This one rule may change the way you look at every challenge you're facing right now. --- ►► FREE Video Training: “Dating With Results” at DatingWithResults.com Hosted on Acast.

    16 Red Flags You Should Never Ignore in Dating | Rewind

    Red flags get all the attention in dating—but what about the warning signs that aren't dealbreakers? In this episode, Matthew and Stephen break down the difference between red flags and "amber lights" (or yellow flags), and why knowing the difference can save you from making a costly mistake. Some warning signs reveal a serious compatibility issue that shouldn't be ignored. Others may point to challenges that, when handled well, can actually strengthen a relationship. Join Matthew and Stephen as they put common dating scenarios to the test and explore how to tell the difference between a relationship that's worth investing in and one that's likely to cause heartache down the road. If you're dating someone new and trying to separate genuine concerns from normal relationship challenges, this episode is for you. --- ►► Matthew Hussey’s free Three Relationships newsletter isn’t just about dating it’s about creating a life you love.

    3 Factors To Consider Before Breaking Up | Matt Monday

    Have you ever wondered if you ended a relationship too soon? In this week’s episode, I share the story of a woman who found herself trapped in a cycle that many of us know all too well. After a breakup, she couldn't shake the feeling that she might be walking away from something good. So when the door cracked open again, she stepped right back through it. What happened next revealed a pattern I’ve seen repeatedly over two decades of coaching: a subtle dynamic that keeps people stuck in relationships long after they’ve stopped feeling truly fulfilled. The challenge is that these situations rarely involve obvious villains. There’s often no betrayal, no dramatic conflict, but just a quiet tension that leaves you questioning yourself and wondering what the right decision really is. In the episode, I break down the hidden mistake that causes so many people to stay stuck and share a simple framework to think about your own situation with greater clarity. --- ►► Transform Your Life in 2 Powerful Days.
