"If you're a person listening to this and you desire deep love, fight for it. Find it. Either call your partner forward into depth and practice, or if you're dating, create a clear structure around how you date to find someone in right alignment with your heart." - Max Trombly
I sat down with Max Trombly for a conversation that might just transform your approach to dating and relationships. We tackle that question so many of us are asking: where are all the good men (or women)? Max shares a perspective I found both challenging and liberating—that magnetizing an epic relationship begins with "cleaning up your house" first. You'll hear specific first date questions that separate casual connections from potential deep love, and discover how embodiment and energetic presence create the foundation for truly magnetic partnerships.

Love Architect Reveals Soulmate Truth | Kailen Rosenberg
"Your soul is attracting what the universe is trying to tell you you need and has yet to heal. We are spiritually, karmically, energetically attracted to all of the wounds in other people that match our wound so we can heal it. And that's our soulmate." - Kailen
I sat down with Kailen Rosenberg for a conversation that completely reframed how I understand love, relationships, and why we attract certain people. This wasn't just another dating tips episode – Kailen took us deep into the energetic truth of why we find ourselves repeating painful relationship patterns and how to break free. What struck me most was her distinction between soulmates (who show up to trigger our wounds) and lifemates (the deep, lasting partnerships we're actually seeking). If you've ever wondered why you keep attracting the same type of partner or why relationship healing feels so elusive, this conversation illuminates the higher purpose behind our most painful romantic experiences.

Sex Coaching Secrets: The Energy Circuit for Ultimate Intimacy | Sarah Beron
"Sex is really all about sensing into your body and then taking a sip of the other person's body and then sensing into your body again. You're attuning to your body and attuning to your partner's body in this loop." - Sarah Beron
