The podcast that brings you back to yourself through real self-love. Not the curated version. The kind you practice when you're heartbroken. In conflict. On the edge of change. When choosing yourself feels terrifying — or selfish. This is for the high-achieving woman who has been giving everything to everyone — afraid of being too much, or never quite enough — and is only just realising she's been last on her own list for far too long. You've built an impressive life. You show up for everyone who needs you. But somewhere along the way, you stopped showing up for yourself. And now you wonder why love, in all its forms, still feels just out of reach. Each episode brings real conversations, honest tools, and practices to help you build the most important relationship of your life: the one with yourself. Because you are the love you've been looking for — and how you love yourself shapes every other relationship in your life. Hosted by Sanaiyah Gurnamal — two-time TEDx Speaker, love and relationship expert, and Love Alchemist. 20+ years of experience. 5,000+ women helped. Make LOVE your power move. You don't need permission to choose yourself. But if it helps — this is it. For business enquiries, please reach out to The Pod Network at info@thepodnetwork.com.

    294: Giving Up on Love Was the Best Thing I Ever Did

    You’ve stopped opening the apps. When anyone asks if you’re seeing someone, you have an answer ready, and it’s a quick one. When a friend offers to set you up, you say you’re too busy. It isn’t heartbreak. It’s quieter than that. Somewhere along the way, you stopped expecting love to work out for you. And if you’re standing right at that edge now, are you done, or just worn out? In this solo episode, I’m talking to the woman who’s tired of trying. I also share what happened when I swore off love myself. Together, we’ll sit with the questions that come up when you’re done with dating. What is giving up on love, really? Is it ever the right call? And does it change anything on its own? Episode Resources ✨ Join my free live webinar, Break Your Love Pattern: ninety minutes to look at what keeps repeating in your love life. If giving up came from watching the same thing happen again and again, this is where we look at why. Can’t make it live? Register anyway and I’ll send you the replay. In this episode, we explore: ✨ What it really means to give up on love ✨ What finally made me say “I’m done” ✨ What I started to see once I stopped dating ✨ What happened when an ex got in touch right after If this is where you are right now, this episode may change how you see it.

    293: You Know Your Attachment Style. So Why Do You Keep Repeating It? with Dr. Morgan Anderson

    You’ve taken the quiz. You can name your attachment style, and maybe even his. You still spiral when the reply takes too long, and you still pull away when someone gets too close. So if knowing was supposed to be the answer, why does it feel like nothing has changed? In this episode, we talk with Dr. Morgan Anderson, clinical psychologist, author of Love Magnet, and host of the Let’s Get Vulnerable podcast, about what happens when understanding yourself still isn’t enough to change how you love. With her warmth and candor, Dr. Morgan Anderson draws on her work with high-achieving women and on her own story. Together, we sit with the questions you may already be asking. What is actually driving a pattern you can see so clearly? Why can love feel like the one area you can’t figure out, even when everything else works? And what comes after knowing? Episode Resources ✨ Take Dr. Morgan’s free Attachment Quiz: see your attachment style as a percentage breakdown. ✨ My Love Blocks Quiz: discover which patterns may be shaping the way you approach your love life and show up in your relationships. In this episode, we explore: ✨ What may be sitting underneath a label you already know ✨ Why love can feel like the one area you can’t figure out ✨ The attachment style that struggles the most, and why it may not be the one you expect ✨ Why the same kind of person keeps showing up in your love life ✨ What Dr. Morgan Anderson shares when asked what to start with this week If you’ve ever known exactly what you were doing while you were doing it, this conversation may change how you see the pattern.

    288: Why Being Hard On Yourself Isn't Discipline, It's Self-Sabotage with Loz Antonenko

    That voice in your head that says you could have done better, should have worked harder, and it's still not enough? You've probably called it motivation for years. Maybe even discipline. In this episode, we talk with Loz Antonenko, well-being coach, speaker, and bestselling author of Get the F**k Unstuck, about the voice so many high-achieving women rely on to keep moving forward, and what it might actually be costing them. With her unfiltered honesty and humor, Loz opens up about her own experience of looking like she had it all together on the outside while something very different was happening underneath. Together, we explore the tension between ambition and self-respect, what happens when the drive that built your success starts to feel like pressure, and the strange, unfamiliar space that opens up when you finally stop pushing. We also talk about the difference between the voice that pushes you forward and the voice that quietly wears you down, and why it can be so hard to tell them apart. Episode Resources ✨ Work with Loz: Get Your Mojo Back in 12 Weeks is a personalised online coaching program for busy women who feel stuck with their energy, weight, and confidence, built around simple habits that fit real life. ✨ Download my Self-Love Cheat Sheet: simple, practical reminders to help you replace self-judgment with self-respect and build a more loving relationship with yourself, one small choice at a time. In this episode, we explore: ✨ Why so many of us confuse self-criticism with discipline ✨ Where the voice in your head might have come from ✨ What can be hiding behind a life that looks successful from the outside ✨ Why slowing down can feel so uncomfortable for high-achieving women ✨ What it means when self-love is something you do, not something you feel If you've ever wondered whether the voice pushing you forward is also the one holding you back, this conversation may change how you hear it.
