On being resistant to ease in your dating life — and life in general | Ep 111

June 05, 2024

Did you grow up learning to work hard, get good grades, get into the best school(s) possible, hit any academic and professional achievement that you could? I did. And I learned to love it.

I learned to love, and thus value, hustle, hard work, striving, strain, stress. On the one hand, it's served me well in what I've accomplished. On the other hand — and I see this with women all the time — it's made me resistant to pleasure, enjoyment and rest in my life.

In today's episode, I'm breaking down how that resistance shakes out in our romantic experiences. If you're someone who identifies as type A, high achieving, really focused on academic and professional performance across your life, and you're now struggling to meet people you really like or have yet to manifest the relationship you want, this episode is for you.
