    "Should You Date Men That Are Younger Than You?" That's the question I'm answering on this episode of the Thrive in Love After Podcast. Watch this episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/KGLewHWrSdI Key Takeaways from the episode: Challenge conditioning: Question societal expectations influencing your dating choices. There is no right or wrong: Understand there's no fixed rule for age in dating, just personal preferences. Trust your instincts: Follow your heart when deciding to date someone younger. Shared values matter: Ensure compatibility in life stages and values for a healthy relationship. Your choice, your life: Don't be swayed by others' opinions; make decisions that feel right for you. IMO, good and bad decisions don't exist! 📣 Important links! 👉🏻I'd love to connect with you further and support you on your journey.

    S4 16. Is Playing The Cool Girl Sabotaging Your Relationships?

    Take my new assessment. here: https://thriveandmanifest.com/taketheassessment Hello friend, it's great to be back after a short break. Today, I want to dive into a topic that's been on my mind for a while – Cool Girl Syndrome in dating and relationships. I'm excited to talk about this because it's something I struggled with during my twenties and thirties, and I'm sure many of you can relate. Key Takeaways from the episode: Cool Girl Syndrome (CGS) involves being overly accommodating in your interactions, going along with everything the other person wants. It's driven by the fear of coming across as needy, desperate, or being rejected. Engaging in CGS prevents authentic connections and makes it hard to assess compatibility. The longer you stay in CGS, the more resentment builds because you abandon yourself. Over time, CGS creates an unhealthy relationship dynamic where your partner thinks their behaviour is okay. You block intimacy and genuine connections when you don't show your true self. CGS leads to overthinking and overanalyzing situations. Action Steps: Reflect on your past dating and relationship experiences to identify instances where CGS may have influenced your behaviour. Write a story about what you'll do differently in the future to break free from CGS. Ask yourself what feels light and authentic in situations rather than following norms or overthinking. Get clear on your wants, boundaries, and true needs, and practice communicating them in various areas of your life. Conclusion: I want to encourage you to be yourself and communicate honestly in your dating and relationships. Remember, relationships involve two humans with insecurities and vulnerabilities. Owning your side of the street and working through your fears can lead to personal growth and more fulfilling connections. Closing Notes: Don't forget to check out the episode on YouTube: I'd also like to remind all the amazing women over 40 that if you need guidance and support on your journey to a love life makeover, you can find more information in down below ⬇️ Lastly, consider taking our Relationship Awareness Quiz for personalized insights into your relationships.
