Podcasts about Compatibility

If you've been dating for a while and you're starting to feel tired, discouraged, or quietly wondering why this seems so much harder than it should be, you're not imagining things. Modern dating can wear people down, the endless swiping, first dates that go nowhere, the emotional energy it takes just to stay open and hopeful. Many of the people I work with start to doubt themselves, not because anything is wrong with them, but because the process itself is exhausting. In this episode, I'm joined by Tim Molnar, a dating coach and former sociology professor, to talk about dating burnout recovery and how to approach dating with more clarity, intention, and emotional steadiness. Instead of pushing harder or checking out completely, we explore how to date more thoughtfully,  in ways that protect your mental health and help you stay connected to yourself along the way. We talk about why modern dating mental health struggles are so common, how swipe culture and endless choice can distort decision-making, and why so many good people end up feeling depleted rather than excited. Tim shares a research-backed, intentional dating strategy that helps you make better decisions sooner, reduce emotional drain, and focus your energy where it actually matters. If you've been trying to date without losing yourself — your values, your peace of mind, or your sense of hope — this episode offers a calmer, more grounded way forward. As you listen, you might reflect on this question: What would change if dating felt less like a test of your worth and more like a process you could approach with intention and self-trust? Episode Breakdown 00:00 Dating Burnout and Self-Doubt in Modern Dating 02:17 Tim's Journey to an Intentional Dating Strategy 07:24 Why Modern Dating Impacts Mental Health 12:52 The “Third Door” Approach to Dating Without Burning Out 16:05 Expanding Your Social World Without Losing Yourself 21:15 Why Dating Apps Create Burnout and Inertia 25:49 Real-World Connection, Rejection, and Emotional Risk 36:29 Making Better Dating Decisions Earlier 39:43 The 80/20 Approach to Dating Without Burnout 43:40 Chemistry vs. Compatibility in Healthy Relationships 46:22 What Research Says Predicts Long-Term Relationship Success 50:47 The Power of the Slow Burn in Dating If dating has started to feel heavy, confusing, or emotionally draining, and you'd like a thoughtful place to land as you sort through what you need next, I want you to know there's support available to you. I'd love to invite you to schedule a free consultation with me or a member of my Growing Self team. This is a private, secure space where you'll answer a few simple questions so we can understand what's been weighing on you and thoughtfully connect you with the right counselor or coach — someone who understands dating burnout, relationship decision-making, and how to help you stay open to love without losing yourself. You don't need to have everything figured out before you begin. This is simply an opportunity to feel understood, supported, and less alone as you find a calmer, more intentional way forward. xoxo, Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby Growing Self Special thanks to this month's sponsors of the Love, Happiness and Success Podcast: Shopify — The all-in-one platform for building and growing your online business.

Most people treat dating like a lottery; swipe, hope, repeat. Jonathan Aslay lost $2 million, his marriage, and his son. What saved him wasn't positive thinking. It was asking one brutal question: "What happened in your marriage?" Not to judge. To observe. Because how someone talks about their ex reveals everything about their emotional maturity. Self-love isn't bubble baths and affirmations. It's having the spine to walk away from someone hot but emotionally stunted. It's recognizing that your body screams "yes" while your values whisper "run." Chemistry is a drug. Compatibility is architecture. Most relationships fail because people confuse the two. You'll learn: The exact question that exposes emotional immaturity in 30 seconds Why chemistry without shared values guarantees failure How to interview dates without sounding like HR (and why you should) Stop wasting months on people who were wrong from day three.

AJ and Johnny sit down with Paul Eastwick, relationship scientist and author of Bonded by Evolution, to unpack what modern dating has gotten wrong — and what the science actually says about love, attraction, and connection. They explore how online dating has distorted our view of desirability, why the search for “the perfect person” makes us miserable, and how real connection comes from shared time, not algorithms. Paul breaks down how our brains evolved for small-group bonding — not endless swiping — and reveals the truth about compatibility, attachment, and the misunderstood “friend zone.” From evolutionary psychology to modern dating anxiety, this conversation is a masterclass in how to build real relationships in a world built on comparison.

Some of the most misunderstood and emotionally charged topics for men are: attraction, compatibility, and what actually creates lasting connection with a woman. My guest, Laurin Ponce, helps us break down the difference between compatibility, connection, and chemistry - and why confusing those three is where most relationships go off the rails. We talk about what women truly find attractive in a grounded man, what it really means when a woman asks for space, why it feels like there are more rules for men, and how respect is built long before it's ever given. From attachment styles and masculine frame to why women's touch is medicine and how peace and respect create a relationship where both people feel safe and free, this conversation cracks open the unspoken dynamics most men are trying to navigate alone. We also explore the practical side: non-negotiables, testing for compatibility, shared values, money, day-to-day living, and why partners are often mirrors and triggers for our own unresolved work. Laurin and I get into anxious versus avoidant dynamics, masculinity and femininity in modern relationships, emotional expression in men, vulnerability, physical attraction, and how connection is built - and rebuilt - over time SHOW HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 - Understanding Men and Women 01:07 - Is There a Line in "Figuring Each Other Out"? 03:22 - Masculine and Feminine Polarity 05:08 - The Bowl and the Water Analogy 06:46 - Why Respect Starts With Self-Respect 08:21 - Non-Negotiables in Relationships 10:05 - Compatibility vs. Chemistry 13:18 - Core Values and Relationship Dealbreakers 14:58 - You Can't Out-Love Incompatibility 17:16 - Chemistry vs. Trauma Bonds 18:46 - What Real Chemistry Feels Like 19:29 - Peace and Respect in Relationships 22:47 - Creating Emotional Safety 26:52 - Masculine and Feminine Imbalance Today 30:30 - Polarity Always Finds Its Way 33:41 - Letting Go of Armor and Control 35:16 - Becoming the Partner You Want to Attract 39:13 - Consistency and Trust 40:10 - Physical Attraction and Discipline 43:02 - Connection Is Built Over Time 46:37 - Scarcity Mindset in Dating 48:02 - Where Men Should Start in Long-Term Relationships 50:32 - Rekindling Attraction and Intentionality 57:12 - "Cracking the Code" of Your Partner 01:00:29 - Never Get Comfortable in Love 01:05:05 - Serving Each Other Without Shame 01:06:23 - Where to Find Laurin's Work Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!

In this candid episode, John and Jackie shift the conversation to something couples don't always talk about openly: the challenges of swinging and open relationships. While many episodes highlight the benefits, this one explores the obstacles—and why those same challenges often become powerful opportunities for growth, connection, and self-awareness.   John and Jackie dive into real-world issues couples face when exploring the lifestyle, starting with time management. Swinging can be exciting, but without intention, it can easily crowd out family time, work responsibilities, or emotional connection. They emphasize that balance doesn't happen by accident—it comes from honest conversations, clear priorities, and checking in with each other regularly.   They also address the stress of secrecy. Many couples struggle with the fear of judgment from friends, family, or employers, which adds emotional weight to the lifestyle. John and Jackie speak openly about stigma, why it still exists, and how normalizing consensual non-monogamy begins with self-acceptance and confidence in your choices.   The episode also tackles practical frustrations—like finding venues or like-minded people, especially in areas without clubs or established communities. They dispel the myth that swinging is easy or indiscriminate, explaining that compatibility, attraction, and communication matter just as much here as they do in traditional dating.   Growth often lives just past discomfort.  

If you want to feel happier in your relationships, understanding Enneagram types changes everything. This growth-focused conversation dives into love, happiness, and emotional intimacy through the lens of personality. You'll learn why different Enneagram personality types experience emotions and relationships differently and how couples can grow and heal by improving communication, mindset, and self-awareness through understanding each other's Enneagram type. In this episode, I'm sharing a meaningful and wide-ranging conversation with Ian Morgan Cron, a bestselling author, psychotherapist, Enneagram teacher, and host of the Typology podcast. Together, we explore how Enneagram types shape relationship dynamics, why misunderstandings happen even in loving partnerships, and how learning each other's emotional wiring can lead to deeper connection instead of ongoing frustration. We talk about why love and attachment can feel so powerful, why it's often harder than expected to let go of unhealthy relationships, and how personality patterns influence conflict, empathy, and emotional pacing. We also dig into Enneagram and relationships, including how different Enneagram types process feelings, respond to stress, and experience intimacy in very different ways. I share personal insights about discovering my own Enneagram 7 tendencies and how that awareness changed the way I understand closeness, independence, and emotional connection in my own relationships. As you listen, I invite you to notice where you may be assuming your partner experiences the world the same way you do. Understanding Enneagram personality types isn't about labeling or fixing yourself or your partner. It's about building compassion, improving communication, and creating relationships where both people feel understood and emotionally safe.

You're invited to schedule a free consultation designed to help you find the right kind of support for where you are right now. By answering three quick questions, we'll thoughtfully match you with a counselor or coach who understands relationships, personality, and the kind of growth you're working toward.

If you're a therapist who carries the weight of being the primary breadwinner while also wanting more presence, more ease, and more time with your family, this episode is for you. This isn't a conversation about hustling harder or squeezing more productivity out of already-full days. It's about slowing down enough to make values-based decisions—so your money, time, and energy actually support the life you want to be living.In this coaching-style episode, I sit down with Colleen Barrows, a perinatal mental health therapist, mom of two young children, and graduate of Money Skills for Therapists. Together, we walk through the very real tension Colleen is feeling between maintaining financial stability as the primary breadwinner, managing most of the household responsibilities, and wanting more meaningful one-on-one time with her kids—while also nurturing a creative passion project, which will help therapists and postpartum women, that she hopes may one day provide her with passive income.Choosing Time, Family, and Financial Stability as a Breadwinning TherapistLike so many breadwinning therapist moms, Colleen's “math brain” keeps telling her that the solution is to see more clients. She's currently carrying a heavy client load while also functioning as the household manager and emotional anchor at home. In this conversation, I gently guide Colleen through a reflective exercise—imagining herself years from now, looking back on this fleeting season of early parenthood—and we explore what choices she would feel most proud of when it comes to time, money, and energy.A Coaching Conversation for Breadwinning Therapist Parents(00:03:39) Balancing Passion, Time, and Family(00:12:99) Juggling Work and Household Finances(00:16:57) Balancing Careers and Relationship Equity(00:22:41) Quality vs. Quantity in Parenting(00:24:20) Seeking Balance and Intentionality(00:27:08) Household Roles and Compatibility(00:31:52) Balancing Breadwinning and Family(00:33:21) Money Clarity for TherapistsExploring Choices Around Time, Energy, and IncomeThis episode offers an honest look at the tension many therapist parents feel—between financial responsibility, private practice demands, and the desire to be fully present during a fleeting season of early parenthood. If you've ever felt pulled between money decisions and your deeper values, this conversation is for you.Key takeaways to reflect on:Balance isn't just math: Financial choices should support your well-being, not override it.Quality over quantity: Small, protected moments of connection matter more than constant presence.Revisit roles regularly: Sharing household labor and support can ease resentment and restore energy.Being the breadwinner often means carrying more than just the paycheck. This season of parenting young children is intense—but it's not permanent. With thoughtful, values-led choices, you can build a life you'll look back on with pride, not regret.Ready to Improve your Business Money Skills?Are you a Solo Private Practice Owner?

Today Dr. Beth sits down again with relationship expert Dr. Carol Stoney to explore one of the most common phrases couples use to describe their relationship: “We're just not compatible.” Instead of couples seeing their differences as signs of failure, they unpack what actually lies beneath that thought—discouragement, unmet connection, and the skills we never learned but desperately need in relationships. Together they dive into: Why compatibility isn't about agreeing on everything What happens when life stress wears down the “insulation” of congratulation Practical habits that rebuild connection (eye contact, reassurance, warm touch) How to tell disappointment from rejection The real math of healthy relationships (positive interactions vs. negative ones) If you've ever wondered whether differences mean you chose the wrong person—or whether love should feel easier—this episode offers a grounded, hopeful reframing and actionable insights for loving through incompatibilities. Listen, reflect, and grow together.

Today, Ben is joined by Michael O'Rourke—Apex-based financial advisor, RICP®, and former environmental engineer—for a rich and human-centered conversation about what it really takes to transition from earning a paycheck to generating reliable retirement income. Drawing on years of advising and his work with the Retirement Income Style Awareness (RISA) framework, Michael shares how differences in temperament, risk tolerance, and even marital dynamics shape the way people experience retirement. Their discussion moves beyond spreadsheets into the deeper architecture of a good retirement: understanding longevity risk, discerning lifestyle desires, preparing for late-life care, and shaping a plan that honors each person's unique “money language.” Together, they explore the surprising reality that adding more guaranteed income can actually expand long-term growth potential, why stability in retirement is more about peace of mind than products, and how thoughtful planning becomes a form of stewardship—one that frees people to enjoy their later years without fear of running out. Grounded in both practical experience and a respect for the human person, the conversation offers a vision of retirement where income supports vocation, strengthens marriages, and gives families the confidence to live generously in the years ahead.Key Takeaways:• The “Four L's” of retirement—longevity, lifestyle, legacy, and liquidity—provide a helpful framework for evaluating retirement readiness.• The Retirement Income Certified Professional (RICP®) designation equips advisors to plan across the full arc of retirement, not just investments.• Risk capacity changes over time, and retirees may become either more risk-averse or more flexible depending on health, lifestyle, and family dynamics.• Advisors serve as guides, not dictators, helping clients navigate decisions while honoring their personal values and preferences.• Compatibility between client and advisor matters; shared values, communication style, and trust can make or break the relationship.• Ultimately, good retirement planning is a stewardship exercise, giving retirees a sense of peace, purpose, and permission to enjoy the years ahead without fear of running out of money.Key Timestamps:(03:39) – Transitioning into Retirement Income(07:15) – The Four Ls of Retirement Planning(20:09) – Balancing Safety and Flexibility in Retirement(27:59) – The Role of Annuities in Retirement Planning(29:09) – Adapting Investment Strategies to Client Needs(35:37) – Finding the Right Financial AdvisorKey Topics Discussed:Catholic Money Mastermind, Catholic financial planning, Catholic financial planners, Catholic financial advisors, Ben Martinek, faith and financesMentions:Website: https://www.hsiadvisors.net/ Mentions: Are You a Stock or a Bond?: Identify Your Own Human Capital for a Secure Financial Future by Moshe A.

In this episode of PF Unfiltered, PF sits down with Dami and Lolade Akibola, an incredible couple to discuss one of the most challenging aspects of marriage: MONEY!!. If you've ever wondered how to handle finances as a married couple, especially when cultural expectations clash with modern realities, this conversation is essential.Dami and Lolade share their journey from college students with completely different money mindsets to building a strong financial partnership.

How do we date in a world where privacy is fragile and connection feels digital? In this conversation, Jessica and Kelly explore the complexities of dating in the modern age, touching on the rise of Facebook Dating, the challenges of identity and privacy in the digital world, and the evolving nature of relationships. They discuss the importance of compatibility and companionship in marriage, reflecting on personal experiences and societal expectations surrounding dating and relationships. Inside This Conversation:  Dating is a challenging topic for many, especially for those re-entering the dating scene. Facebook Dating has gained popularity due to its integration with existing social networks. Privacy and data sharing are significant concerns in the digital age, especially with dating apps. The evolution of dating has shifted from traditional matchmaking to algorithm-based connections. Companionship and shared values are crucial for long-term relationships. The perception of dating has changed with the rise of technology and social media. Scams related to identity theft are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Support from tech companies, like Facebook, is often lacking when issues arise. Understanding compatibility is essential in finding a life partner. Marriage can evolve over time, with companionship becoming a key component.
