Love Life Connection

Self Development

Why do I attract emotionally unavailable people? Why are the “nice ones” boring to me? I’ve read all the books and even been to therapy, why isn’t my love life changing? Why am I still stuck?

Don’t worry, this podcast isn’t about fixing up your profile for the millionth time or upping your texting game. Instead, you’ll learn the deeper reasons you attract who you attract so you can heal old wounds, shift limiting beliefs and attract the deep love you desire and deserve. Each week, you’ll hear Veronica coach callers on how to do the deep work so they can find deep love.

We’re living in a swipe right, swipe left world. Online dating sites have existed since even before Match.com became a thing in the mid 1990s. But now?

How to be a “Better” Partner in a Relationship with Laura

3/2/2023
What do the law of attraction have in common with Christianity? You’ve probably run into the law of attraction idea of “attracting” circumstances, events, and people into your life based on your beliefs or “vibration” or whatever. Even if what you’re consuming isn’t specifically about the law, it can’t help but pervade personal growth spaces the same way Judeo-Christian standards pervade society even if you don’t identify as Christian.

2/9/2023
As a Capricorn, I have an innate love for personal finance. I can nerd out and consume things like investing, budgeting, saving, paying off debt, and more for days. But I also believe that we relate to money the same way we relate to the people we date. In fact, we tie our worthiness to these things, especially women. So how are they similar, and how do you decouple your self-worth from your finances and your love life? In this episode, I talk about the connection between where you spend...
