In this episode, I explain why anxiety is your body’s way of telling you something’s off. Whether you’re walking on eggshells with a new guy or constantly overthinking your partner’s mixed signals, that tension isn’t “normal.” It’s a red flag. You’ll learn the difference between healthy excitement and relationship anxiety, how to know whether the problem is him or you, and what a calm, secure relationship actually feels like. If you’re tired of mistaking butterflies for love (they’re not!), this episode could change everything.

Have you ever felt blindsided by a guy who seemed perfect for the first few weeks? He was flirty, attentive, and made you feel special…until you realized all he really wanted was sex.
In this Love U Podcast, I’ll show you how to tell the difference between a man who’s looking for a hookup, a girlfriend, or a future wife. You’ll learn why their early behavior is nearly indistinguishable and how to stop mistaking chemistry for compatibility. If you’re tired of confusing short-term courtship with long-term intention, this episode will give help you start investing in men who are actually investing in you.

This episode is personal, because it has to be. But what I really learned in 2025 isn’t just about me. It’s about what happens to people when the world changes faster than our values, our nervous systems, and our expectations can keep up. These eight things are my experience in 2025 but they’re also reflections of the moment we’re all living in.

What happens when you go from burned out on dating to happily married? In this episode of the Love U Podcast, I catch up with Shivani, a former Love U client with a PhD in computer science who once believed there were no good men left. We talk about how she overcame cultural pressures, rejection, and her own limiting beliefs to find a husband. If you’ve ever felt like giving up on love, this story will inspire you to keep going.

This week, I coach Michelle, an independent woman in her early 50s who keeps committing too quickly before discovering the guy isn’t a long-term fit. Together, we break down why early chemistry can blind you, and how dating like a CEO changes everything. If you’ve been treating men like your boyfriend before he’s earned the right to that title, this episode will reset how you date forever.

In this Love U Podcast, I talk with Mo Gawdat, former Chief Business Officer at Google and author of Solve for Happy. We dig into why endless choice creates confusion and how most daters misunderstand their own patterns. Mo shares his personal journey through marriage, loss, midlife dating, and a recent separation, and explains how those experiences inspired Emma.love, his new AI project built to help people understand themselves before choosing a partner.
