In this episode, Georgie explores the deep, often tangled topic of self-worth - why we attach it to things like body image, male attention, success, or relationships, and how to finally begin unhooking from it. She shares her own personal experience of tying self-worth to external milestones like book launches and TV appearances - and the emotional crash that can follow once the moment passes. If you've ever felt your worth rise and fall based on how you're perceived or what you've achieved, this is for you. You'll learn Georgie's 3-step approach to accessing your inherent, untouchable self-worth - including the mindset shifts and subconscious work needed to move from fragile confidence to a grounded sense of inner value.

Hi my loves

Keith and Mike examine the nuances of modern dating with the clinical detachment of two men who've spent far too much time on dating apps. They begin by dissecting the increasingly common expectation for men to send daily "good morning" texts, a phenomenon Keith describes as both psychologically revealing and extremely stupid. Mike proposes outsourcing these texts to offshore call centers or an AI assistant, both of which he suspects would outperform the average man. The segment concludes with a meditation on communication as performance versus communication as evidence of actual affection. The conversation then drifts, as it often does, into a granular exploration of sexual technique, including thrusting strategies, vocal coaching, and the sociocultural ramifications of vigorous fingering. Keith offers a brief anatomical aside on the bone structure of mammalian penises, which is less of a non sequitur than it sounds. Mike draws a comparison between poorly instructed fingering and receiving directions like “touch me like a grapefruit,” which somehow makes sense in context. There is also a serious discussion of how women might coach men toward more satisfying encounters, though no conclusive solution is reached. From there, the hosts turn their attention to the challenges facing women in their mid-30s who are trying to find a long-term partner before their fertility window closes. Keith outlines a strategy he calls "industrialized dating," inspired by a friend who scheduled more than ten first dates per week and maintained a spreadsheet to keep track. Mike compares this to the scheduling practices of professional sex workers, which is meant as a compliment. They explore whether delaying sex can effectively filter out unserious suitors, or if it merely selects for the most patient ones. Finally, the hosts circle back to the central dilemma: how can women efficiently vet potential husbands without becoming either emotionally drained or what Mike refers to as "a sex worker for free." Various strategies are proposed, including cryptic date-countdown policies and ambiguous sexual timelines designed to disorient men just enough to reveal their true intentions. Keith recommends maximizing throughput. Twitter: @ymmvpod Facebook: ymmvpod Email: ymmvpod@gmail.com

Are you sometimes chill and secure… and other times totally anxious? Maybe you're fine when you're single but lose it the second someone shows up in your love life. Is it possible for your anxious attachment to only kick in sometimes? In this HOTLINE episode of Healing Honeys, Louise dives into exactly that. She breaks down why attachment styles aren't set in stone — how you can feel secure in one situation and completely dysregulated in another. She also explores how abandonment wounds, vulnerability, fears, and hidden shame can flare up only sometimes (and why). If you've ever felt like dating throws you into emotional chaos, this episode is for you. Louise shares grounding insights, tools, and real-talk advice to help you navigate love — without losing yourself in the process.

Welcome to the episode every anxious attachment girlie needs in her back pocket. If you spiral when they don't text back, replay convos 14 times in your head, or wake up with an emotional hangover worse than a tequila bender… this one's for you.

Healing anxious attachment is a life-changing journey — but it's not always easy. While moving toward secure attachment can bring more ease, confidence, and healthier relationships, it also requires confronting some uncomfortable truths along the way. In this episode, we're unpacking five hard truths about healing that will help you set realistic expectations and stay committed to your growth.What We Cover in This Episode:Why healing isn't always comfortable — and why grief is often part of the processThe myth of waking up one day as "fully secure" and what real progress looks likeHow healing might disrupt your relationships (and why not everyone will like the changes you make)Why you won't stop getting triggered — but how you can gain more control over your reactionsThe surprising truth: sometimes you'll miss your old patterns, even the unhealthy onesHealing doesn't mean never struggling again. It means showing up differently, practicing new choices, and being compassionate with yourself along the way. If you're in the thick of it, know that you're not alone, and every step forward matters.Download the FREE Anxious Attachment Starter Kit here Additional Resources Join Healing Anxious Attachment Join my email list
