Finding the Guardian of Your Soul - Lost in Translation: How Men and Women Hear Dating Terms Differently
play

10/03/23 • 35 min

What You'll Hear In This Episode:

Communication differences surrounding certain phrases, such as “I need time alone” and "we need to talk"

Clarifying the meaning of commitment with each partner

Asking specific questions to understand expectations and intentions

Regular communication and clarification to avoid misunderstandings

Importance of discussing expectations and desires for building a deeper connection

Addressing potential issues and clarifying intentions early on

Recognizing signs of a potential mismatch in commitment levels

Importance of addressing concerns and desires to avoid future hurt and disappointment

Men also need space for personal growth and processing, similar to women

Seriousness for men may involve consistency and integrating each other into daily routines, not necessarily long-term plans

Differences in views on moving in together

Importance of open communication and taking time to be sure before making such big decisions

Highlighting the need for communication and understanding differing perspectives in a relationship

Key quotes:

  • "When most women tell a man they want to ‘take it slowly,’ they are saying they want to build a strong emotional foundation before having sex. They want deep meaningful conversations and to build the emotional intimacy first. For men, taking it slowly often means NOT having intimate talks that go too deep." – Lisa Shield
  • “When a woman hears the phrase 'I need some space,' it can trigger catastrophic thinking and tap into her insecurities, causing her to question the stability of the relationship. On the other hand, for some men, being in a serious relationship may simply mean integrating each other into their daily routines and getting to know each other better, without necessarily signaling long-term plans or commitments." — Lisa Shield
  • “It is good to have a conversation to clarify what you mean by certain phrases. You can say, ‘Hey, ________, I know that we said we're in a committed relationship, and I also know that being in a committed relationship, that word can have different meanings for different people. I would love to hear what it means for you.’” — Lisa Shield

Finding the Guardian of Your Soul - The Yin to his Yang: Discover Femininity by Understanding Masculinity
play

09/19/23 • 43 min

What You'll Hear In This Episode:

The symbiotic relationship between masculinity and femininity, and how they bring out the best in each other

The misconception that simply dressing up and waiting for the "right guy" is enough to feel feminine

Learning how to make a man's world bigger by supporting his dreams and aspirations

The tendency to build walls and become less open with age and negative experiences

The shifting of focus from masculine or feminine behavior to attractive behavior

The dangers of relying on seducers and players to bring out femininity

The need for self-reflection and understanding one's role in attracting certain types of individuals

The importance of both partners doing their part in maintaining a healthy relationship

Key quotes:

  • "Because I had these thick walls up and I was so afraid of being vulnerable and feminine I never could find a man who treated me the way I wanted to be treated. Most men didn't feel like there was an opportunity for them to do that with me." — Lisa Shield
  • "One way of making a man's world bigger is listening to, asking about, and supporting his dreams." — Lisa Shield
  • "If you want to have a healthy relationship and you want to have a really beautiful, masculine, feminine dynamic, then it starts with learning about masculinity. Not just learning how you can become more feminine, but learning what draws out a man's masculine side. So you need to do your part just as much as he needs to do his part." — Lisa Shield
  • "And it's not just about sitting and waiting for a man to bring your femininity out, but it's also about you knowing how to draw out his masculinity. And as you do that, your femininity will start to emerge in the process." — Lisa Shield

About her desire for change and not wanting to have regrets in the future

How she prioritized coaching calls in a commitment to invest time, finances, hopes and dreams into the program

Her moments of feeling discouraged but encouraged by Steve to keep going

Her acknowledging the challenges of the journey and the importance of support

Her learning to value personal relationships and experiences over work accomplishments

Her exploring the lessons learned from recommended readings and the Four Agreements

Her recognizing patterns in dating and relationships

Key quotes:

  • "I recognized myself. I recognized other people. I recognized how I date, but I also recognized my other relationships... That book was really life changing." — Lisa Y.
  • "For these set of weeks, I am committed to that, and work will always be there... But I needed to invest in myself, and you really did impress that upon me." — Lisa Y.
  • "The idea of slowing down and enjoying who you're with in that moment, that rings true in all aspects of my life, because I don't want everything to be said and done. And the only thing I had to show for it was work. That's not good. That's not where I want to be." — Lisa Y.
  • “This is hard to keep up. And I can see why people throw in the towel. But you encouraged me keep going, keep going and keep doing the work. And it made all the difference because I want this guy to travel with and to cut the birthday cake with." — Lisa Y.
  • ​​”No relationship lasted longer than three months. It seems like that was a magic point where the real truth comes out and breaks loose. I was trying to slow things down and really make sure I was picking the right person to begin with and giving that more thought than just falling into things, trying to be more deliberate." — Steve
  • "Drama in relationships, where someone instigates conflicts for the thrill of breaking up and making up, is sheer madness. Personally, I've been in such situations before, and I can't tolerate it. Genuine disagreement is one thing, but intentionally causing drama for emotional rollercoasters is something I refuse to engage in." — Steve
  • "Two people can be passionately in love and not fight." — Lisa Shield
