How to de-center a man and DETACH - you are a GODDESS.
If you're seeing this right now, it's for a reason. I spent most of my life putting relationships and men as the center of my universe, my world, and bending over backwards to make things work out with a person...only to leave myself drained and feeling discarded. In this episode, I dive into why you should de-center a man and detach, and how it truly makes you the most powerful person in the room. Bali is a VIBE. ;)

God will NEVER give you peace in something that isn’t meant for you - my narcissistic abuse story
This episode is very vulnerable as I start to open up about my 4 year toxic on and off narcissistic abusive relationship that I had struggled with mentioning because I'm still in the process of healing from what happened. What this relationship taught me most is that the universe and God will never allow you to settle in a narcissistic, abusive relationship - let alone any toxic relationship that is holding you back from fulfilling your destiny.

How to stop being desperate - become obsessed with YOURSELF
There's nothing worse than desperate energy when you are constantly chasing after people or wanting them to be obsessed with you or validate you in some way, shape or form.

I also cover how to set your standards high and the boss a** b*tch that you truly are.

How to heal from a heartbreak (you deserve better and so do I)
It's time to end the toxic cycles. In this episode, I cover everything I know about going through heartbreak - and what I've learned over the years on how to recover quickly and how to move on. As I reflect back over the last two weeks, I feel like the rug had been ripped out from under me and at first I couldn't understand why...but I truly believe that everything happens for a reason - and the universe always remove someone or something in order to REPLACE IT with something better. Although I spoke highly of this person out of respect, after recording this episode and taking a step back, I recognize that I was mostly definitely love bombed, and no one should have to go through that.

Your reminder to stop settling in your dating life and to love yourself first.
In full transparency, I recorded this episode back in July when I was still dating someone who I thought could be someone significant in my life. Although that relationship has recently ended, I still wanted to share this episode because everything I'm saying still holds the same truth to it - which is your reminder to never settle for basic behaviors in relationships. To experience someone who makes a genuine effort to see you, to spend time with you, and to focus on you - is what everyone deserves.

How to manifest a specific person back into your life
How to manifest a specific person! Listen intentionally with caution. I want you to be happy overall, so I want you to manifest someone ONLY if you truly feel they were your person. Also I feel like I'm going to get cancelled for being a cold hearted Capricorn in this episode because I discuss my icks, but oh well. In this episode I also talk about my experience from dating apps recently and some fun life updates. Enjoy! :)

In this episode, I dive into a dating story time about a guy who got me hooked on him and then ghosted me - ultimately leaving me feeling rejected, hurt, and embarrassed. I also talk about how to know your value and how it was fairly easy for me to overcome this situation after time had passed.

Stop diluting your power for a man
It's easy to lose focus when you're so fixated on someone else. But baby, you have to remember that YOU ARE THE MAIN CHARACTER. When it comes to relationships, we often dilute our power and give our energy away instead of directing it towards OURSELVES. Agree or disagree?

The red flags you see now are the reasons you'll leave later
Self explanatory. If you see some major issues early on, my best advice is to get out while you still can. The red flags you see in the beginning are the reasons you'll most likely leave the relationship later - or they'll be the reason you're unhappy in a relationship. Yes, people can grow and change, however, I've noticed that my gut was always telling me to run prior to diving deeper into a situation with someone...yet I just ignored it. Let's talk about it.

Work on yourself so much until they're not your type anymore
If you're overly consumed by the idea of a person instead of focusing on yourself, this episode is for you.

How to avoid getting attached too quickly
It's easy to get attached to someone we've just met...because they're nice. Because they're attractive and treat us right. But how soon is too soon to get attached?

So here's an episode talking about that experience, and how to avoid getting attached too fast. If you loved this episode, dm me on instagram @lyss or @dateyourselfinstead and share it with a friend.

Stop being desperate & needy in love
I definitely have had my moments in relationships where I felt like I smothered my partner with desperate energy. I was needy and insecure because I didn't love or value myself enough to know who I truly was. I didn't know my worth, so I would project my insecurities often onto my boyfriends in hopes that would make them want to be with me more, but instead it often backfired and became messy. I also mention this amazing book, The Mastery of Love, in the beginning of this episode which has helped me through my healing process and has helped the relationship I have with myself.

I did magic mushrooms in mexico - here's what I took from it
Psyliocybin. Magic mushrooms. Tulum. This experience changed my life and my perception of everything in the world. I was going through one of the worst depressions, and I met a Spirit Guide in Mexico who altered the course of my life permanently.

How self-respect changes everything
This episode is all about self-respect, taking a stand for what you believe in, and valuing who you truly are.
Self-respect means honoring yourself over anyone else, and ignoring what other people are saying about you. For most of my life, I've been bullied for my image and my looks, and as I've gotten older, I've realized that the only way to honor who I am is to block out the noise and focus on self-love. I also go into detail about my own personal stories with my self-confidence, and how I've struggled with being assertive in the past.

You’re not “crazy” - why trusting your gut is SO powerful
I pride myself on my sense of intuition, but those gut feelings can be easy to ignore especially if you’re like me and like giving people the benefit of the doubt. In this episode I share a story where gaslighting and red flags were ignored until my gut was screaming at me. Sometimes we get too in our heads to listen to that built-in accuracy radar but know that feelings of insecurity are normal, and the right person will work through those feelings with you.
