My biggest takeaways from our conversation today are,
"Whether it's one coffee or the rest of my life" I can find love in any amount at any time. "Love 'em where they are at" means to hold grace for those on their own journey to happiness through self-love and appreciation. Simple steps to discovering love are to be content with yourself first, be open and aware to your own authenticity, and finally to...

Jacqui Pugh dropped by to discuss "boyver" and how to recognize an authentic person right away when you meet them! Her flagship program, BURN, is perfect for those that are ready to get over their ex, get their POWER BACK, and design the future the have always DREAMT OF!
Her clients come to her with this statement, "I’m sad, I’m lonely, or I’m in a relationship that’s good not great."  Jacqui coaches them to turn that into a personal mantra of, "I’m single and it’s okkk, (all the way) to f*cking awesome!”

Jason Kendrick is a published author, speaker, NLP Practitioner, and Reiki Master. 
For twenty years, Jason has been a personal growth junkie and he believes that to know something, is to teach it.  Therefore, he has made it his mission to redefine the old masculine paradigm and recreate a new healthier father/son reinforce model.
We dive deep into his life growing up connecting with the feminine so much more than his masculine role models.  Later in life, he found that he was seeking the approval and was a traditional "nice guy"!  I can completely relate to this thinking as I have been able to identify with "Nice Guy" Syndrome in my life as well!
 

Lisa Foster, owner of Parillume, helps survivors of sexual assault shine from their original design and thrive!  She speaks nationally, hosts events in Denver, and works with individuals, couples, and groups to facilitate their growth.  We wanted to pick her brain on how she uses tools like The Enneagram, Meyers-Briggs, and Strengths Finder to help her community grow to shine.
Lisa's journey in her own words, "My own Hero’s Journey began decades ago when I confronted my father about sexually abusing me. As I began to heal, I noticed something: The shame-based lens of our culture condemned me to a lifetime in recovery as a “survivor.” But I was determined to pioneer a path beyond survival, to a life without limits."  

It was a pleasure to connect with Nick Mancini, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist  
Nick took the time to discuss relationships, intimacy, and core values to share his expertise with you.  What resonated with me most from our podcast interview was how to foster curiosity within ourselves so that we can continue to grow and show up as authentically as possible when dating.  His goal with clients is to simplify skills with a systematic approach from the very first phone consultation.
Nick plays multiple roles in his clients' lives, such as coach, cheerleader, and an accountability partner.  Whether his clients wish to immediately date after a break up or divorce, or they would like to slow down, he will meet them where they are at to define their values and purpose.
