Episode Details

Wanting love in when you’re a single woman over 30 can bring a mix of emotions, especially when you’ve been dating for years and it still hasn’t happened for you.

It’s common for a feeling of shame or embarrassment to slowly rise up. It can feel silly or way to vulnerable to want love when it seems unlikely that it’ll ever happen for you.

And so, you can start to hide your desire for love.

You laugh it off.

Tell people you’re happy being single.

You’re in “no rush”

Joke about how awful dating is when you’re over 30.

But underneath it all, that desire is still there.

Inside this episode we talk about this shame that so many single women over 30 feel about wanting a loving, committed relationship, especially when you’ve tried, hoped, dated and waited.

You’ll hear:

• Why wanting love can start to feel like something that’s better to hide
• How embarrassment shapes your dating choices and stifles the flow of love into your life
• What shifts when you stop seeing your desire for love as something to downplay
• The practical steps that allow you want love confidently
• And how this changes your entire experience of dating.

This isn’t a conversation about forcing confidence or pretending it doesn’t feel scary to wear your heart on your sleeve and go after what you want.

It’s about understanding what’s actually happening beneath that embarrassment and why releasing it changes way more than you might expect.

There’s something important for you to see here:

Love can’t move towards you, while you feel ashamed for still wanting it.

If you’ve ever found yourself joking about how terrible your love life is, accepting breadcrumbs hoping they’ll turn into what you want or wondering what it must mean about you that love hasn’t happened for you yet…

This episode will feel like someone finally putting words to how you’ve been feeling all this time.

From that you’ll also find clear steps that make finding love just as predictable as having other desire for your life, like you dream job or dream house.

So by the end, the embarrassment you feel in wanting love, becomes pride that you want something so damn glorious for your life.

That’s what love follows. That’s how love finds you.
