Love and relationships are at the heart of the human experience, yet navigating them in today's world can feel confusing, disappointing, and often painful. Today's conversation explores what it means to truly lead with love and how to break free from patterns that keep us stuck. Branden Collinsworth is a poet, philosopher, and teacher whose work centers on the transformative power of love. We connected in Bali and immediately dove into deep conversations about Love, both universal and personal, and the complexities of the heart. In this episode, we explore: 💔 Why love is the ultimate mission (and what happens when you declare it) 🪞 The truth: we attract what we are 💪 The difference between boyhood and manhood (and why initiation matters) 🌹 Why self-love changes the entire texture of your life 👑 How to stop repeating toxic relationship patterns 🎯 The power of standards, values, and energetic boundaries 💫 Reframing the narrative around available partners 🔥 Physical attraction vs soul connection: what matters more? ⚡ Why personal transformation is the key to changing your relationships We discuss the journey from head to heart, why self-love is the foundation for all healthy relationships, and how our standards determine who we allow into our world. The conversation covers the importance of community, accountability, and why both men and women need proper initiation into adulthood. This episode offers permission to reframe limiting narratives, step into proactive change, and trust that healthy, conscious relationships are possible when we do the inner work first.
