Class is in session, ladies—Niko Emanuilidis, host of The Daddy Academy, is here with your complete guide to dating in 2026. We’re getting into what actually makes a man want to commit, why dating feels so confusing right now, and how to actually attract the relationship you’ve always wanted. Niko shares what men are truly thinking in the early stages of dating, how to get approached more IRL, and the biggest mistakes women are making. We explore why you attract who you are—and why you might be attracting emotionally unavailable partners (and how to stop). Ultimately, this is your guide to shifting your patterns, dating from a place of true confidence, and raising your standards to attract a healthy, beautiful relationship. We also cover: why men pull away in dating how to know if a man is serious about you masculine vs. feminine energy in dating what your social media says about you (& do guys notice?) tangible ways to get approached in the wild how to shift your mindset to confidently enjoy dating questions you need to ask in early dating how men ultimately decide on a relationship how to attract better partners understanding your preferences vs. dealbreakers Whether you’re dating, single, healing, or in a situationship you’re lowkey tired of explaining, this episode will help you understand dating dynamics and feel more empowered in your choices.

how to become your own best friend (& actually trust yourself)

Most of us know how to show up for other people, but very few of us know how to show up for ourselves. This week, it’s just us, and I’m sharing a practical guide to becoming your own best friend (and what that actually means). Spoiler alert: self-care isn’t really on the list (maybe a quick mention here or there), because I’ve found it goes way deeper than bubble baths and face masks (though I’m a h03 for a bubble bath, k). We’re talking: self-talk, learning to trust your intuition, regulating your emotions, fostering community, staying curious, and letting yourself take up all the space you desire. We also cover: building self-trust and confidence emotional regulation and nervous system awareness setting boundaries without guilt personal growth and mindset shifts strengthening your relationship with yourself showing up for yourself in friendships and relationships And more. I hope there’s something in here you needed, and as always, I’d love to know what it was. LOVE YOU. x SAY HI: follow Lisa on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ follow Lisa on ⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠ follow Unwineding on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ follow Unwineding on ⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠ subscribe to Unwineding on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠ shop Unwineding’s ⁠⁠⁠⁠storefront Learn more about your ad choices.

how to stop playing it safe & build your dream life ft. Taylor Popik

"If it's your calling, it won't stop calling you." This week on Unwineding, I’m joined by Taylor Popik for a calming, inspiring and honest conversation about what it really looks like to stop playing it safe and start building a life that feels aligned. Taylor shares her journey from practicing law in New York to becoming a full-time content creator, yoga teacher, and entrepreneur—and how trusting herself changed everything. We talk about redefining success, choosing fulfillment over fear, and releasing the pressure to have it all figured out. This episode is for anyone craving clarity, confidence, and permission to take one aligned step forward, even when the path isn’t fully clear yet. And there's a little dating and friendship talk, OF COURSE. As always, take whatever resonates and leave the rest.

lessons about life, love & friendship I wish I knew sooner

Things you know I love: lessons and lists. And we’re back (hi, missed you!) with the first solo episode of 2026—and I’m sharing the life, love, and friendship lessons I’m intentionally carrying forward this year. These are the shifts that changed how I date, how I show up in my friendships, and how I move through my own life—the ones I wish I’d learned sooner, and the ones I’m finally honoring now. Consider this episode a reminder that growth doesn’t come from doing more; it comes from seeing things differently. If you’re in a season of choosing yourself, re-evaluating your relationships, or craving clarity and self-trust, I hope you’ll feel seen here. As always, take whatever you need and leave the rest. LOVE YOU.

THE DEBRIEF: why being sensitive is a gift

A conversation for anyone who's ever been told they're "too sensitive." In this first DEBRIEF episode (hi, welcome!!!), we’re talking about sensitivity—why it feels so overwhelming, why we try to hide it, and why it’s actually one of the greatest gifts you can have. I break down what it really means to feel deeply, the science behind highly sensitive people, and why sensitivity creates stronger relationships, deeper connection, and emotional clarity. We also get into self-critique, overthinking, vulnerability, and the truth that people can only meet you where they’ve met themselves. Think of this as a reminder that your sensitivity isn’t a flaw you need to fix—it’s how your people recognize you, connect with you, and feel safe with you. We talk about:• why sensitivity is a strength• how being “too much” is often just being deeply attuned• self-critique, emotional depth, and overthinking• attracting the right people by being fully yourself If you’re navigating dating, friendship, self-worth, or seasons of feeling “too much,” this episode will help you feel more grounded, more understood, and more connected to who you really are.

Cannot stop listening

2022-11-02

ChantelRM

Ok! First, thank you to tik tok for showing me Lisa’s podcast, I honestly haven’t been able to stop listening. Whether I’m at work, the gym or taking my dog for a walk there’s always a podcast I can refer to that relates to something I’m going through in my life or something I’m hearing that I didn’t know I needed to hear, but that’s how the universe works. Mind you, I do stick away from the break up episodes (solely because I’m happily married and don’t need to re-live my PTSD from the dating era) but everything else and in between is AMAZING! I’m always walking away from the podcast with nuggets of information and in a better mood, I even try to show off to my husband by expressing Lisa and her guests words of wisdom. Bottom line, listen to a few and make your own opinions but highly recommended for your new ‘rebranding year’.
Wow I am hooked

the “becoming my best self” with some spirituality content is right up my alley. however, some of the podcasts on these topics are too serious / don’t give practical tips / aren’t relatable but unwineding is perfect!
