Episode Title: Dating is Like Shopping—Here’s How to Avoid Buyer’s Remorse Release Date: February 26, 2025 Hey Love! ❤️ Dating these days can feel like wandering through a store with no price tags. You’re trying things on, but no one’s telling you if it’s on sale, final purchase, or just a display model. And honestly? It’s exhausting not knowing where you stand. Too many people rush through the process, skipping steps, then wonder why things don’t last. So today, we’re slowing it down and breaking it all the way down—because love isn’t something you rush to the checkout with. In this episode, we’re walking through the Four Stages of Dating and why each one matters. Whether you’re just stepping back into the dating scene or trying to figure out why things keep stalling, this breakdown will help you navigate the process with clarity and intention. Because when you know the steps, you don’t waste time on what’s not for you. Here’s what we’ll cover: • Phase 1: "I’m Outside" (Window Shopping) – Exploring what’s out there without committing, making sure you're truly open to love and not just avoiding loneliness. • Phase 2: Dating (Holding the Item, Feeling It Out) – Testing the waters, being intentional without rushing into exclusivity. • Phase 3: Courtship (Trying It On, Making a Decision) – The phase where exclusivity comes into play; it's about commitment and alignment before making it official. • Phase 4: Relationship (The Purchase) – You’re all in. It’s about building something solid and maintaining the love you’ve cultivated. Key Takeaways: • Learn why skipping phases leads to confusion and heartbreak. • Understand how each phase teaches you something essential about yourself and your needs. • Discover how to move from casual dating to commitment with confidence. • Identify red and yellow flags that signal when it’s time to pause and reassess.

Episode Title: What Are You Really Searching For? Release Date: February 19, 2025 Hey Love! 💖 Ever been in a conversation where you're excited about someone new, only to have them talk about their ex or past relationships before you’ve even had a chance to get to know them? Whew —why does that happen? And more importantly, why do we let it happen to ourselves? In this episode of L_ve Frequency , we’re diving deep into the emotional baggage we unknowingly bring into new connections. We’re going to talk about the real reason you keep finding yourself in conversations centered around the past, even when you’re trying to focus on something new and exciting. You know the type—when the ex talk creeps in, and suddenly, you're back at square one, trying to figure out if you're really looking for love or just seeking validation. So, let's unpack this, shall we? In this episode, we discuss: • The Foundation of Connection: Why leading with your past in a new relationship doesn’t set you up for success—and how to stop doing it. • Emotional Intelligence (EQ): Are you bringing your emotional growth into your new connections, or are you stuck in a cycle of rehashing old hurts? Let's break down how EQ can make all the difference. • What Are You Really Searching For?: Are you seeking connection, or are you just trying to close old chapters you never finished? We’ll explore how to shift the conversation from your past to your potential. By the end of this episode, you’ll understand why focusing on who you’re becoming instead of who you were can completely transform your dating game. Key Takeaways: • How focusing on the present instead of the past can create deeper connections. • Why emotional intelligence is the key to breaking toxic patterns and moving forward. • Simple ways to start conversations that build connection, not walls.

Episode 55: Wash Your Face: A Skincare Routine for Your Soul Hey Love! 💖 In today’s episode, we’re talking about something simple yet deeply transformative: washing your face. No, this isn’t just about skincare—it’s a framework for processing your emotions and taking care of your soul when life feels overwhelming. When a relationship ends or emotions run high, it’s tempting to spiral into self-doubt or avoidance. But what if I told you that the same steps we use to care for our skin can teach us how to nurture ourselves emotionally? This episode breaks down how the simple act of cleansing, correcting, hydrating, and protecting can guide you through difficult emotions and help you regain clarity, balance, and peace. How cleansing your skin mirrors the need to release emotional clutter. Why correcting isn’t about “fixing” yourself but about intentional growth. The importance of hydration—not just for your body, but for your spirit. How setting boundaries is the emotional equivalent of SPF: essential for protection. By the end of this episode, you’ll have a self-care ritual that’s not just about glowing skin but about glowing from within. Key Takeaways Learn how the steps of a skincare routine—cleanse, correct, hydrate, and protect—apply to emotional self-care. Understand why emotional cleansing is vital to clearing away unprocessed feelings and starting fresh. Discover how to replenish your energy and build resilience through intentional self-care. Gain tools to protect your progress with boundaries and emotional “SPF.” Resources Mentioned Episode 54: What's in Your Bag? Unpacking the Language of Pain vs. Joy CTA Love this episode?

Episode 54: What's in Your Bag? The Language of Pain vs. Joy Hey Love! ❤️ In this episode, we're diving into something so important for how we show up in relationships: emotional baggage. Yep, I said it. We all have it—whether we want to admit it or not. But here's the thing: if we don’t take time to unpack what’s weighing us down, we’re going to keep carrying it into every new chapter, every new season. Today’s episode focuses on how to start unpacking that baggage by understanding the language of pain and joy. We all speak one of these languages, but which one are you speaking in your relationships? You might be wondering: “How do I figure that out?” That’s where the fun part comes in. I’m walking you through an activity that will help you reflect on the emotional baggage you're carrying into your next season. We’re going to ask some powerful questions that are going to shift how you see yourself and what you're bringing to the table. We’ll unpack the difference between pain and joy—the vibe you’re bringing into your relationships. The truth is, you can't step into a new season until you know what’s in your bag, babe. Is it full of past pain, old wounds, and projections? Or is it packed with joy, clarity, and peace? We'll explore: What’s the single greatest lesson you carry with you to date? What are three words you would use to describe yourself? What is your single greatest asset or strength? By the end of this episode, you’ll have the tools to assess your emotional baggage, unpack what’s no longer serving you, and step into your next season with a clearer, lighter heart. 🎒 Key Takeaways: Discover the powerful difference between the language of pain and the language of joy, and how it shapes your relationships. Walk through a reflective exercise to help you assess what emotional baggage you’re packing. Learn how to shift from carrying pain to carrying joy in your next season. Gain clarity on what you’re bringing into your next relationship (and what you need to leave behind).

Welcome back, love warriors! This is your heart's compass, Nia, guiding you once again on your journey of self-discovery and connection. In today's soul-nourishing episode, we'll unwrap the layers of affection, fear, and the most intimate reflections from our formative years. We'll ask the hard questions like, "Are you the person you needed when you were younger?" and explore how our childhood voids shape our search for love and belonging. We'll discuss how facing our roots—the traumas and fears—shapes our quest for connection, and why the math of pain plus fear rarely equals love. And brace yourself, beloved listeners, because today I'm baring it all, sharing my own story of loneliness, loss, and survival—the raw and uncensored path that forged me into a haven for my three amazing daughters. We'll also dive into a meaningful exercise that marries nostalgia with healing, where changing a simple phone wallpaper can become a gateway to embracing and nurturing the younger versions of ourselves. Because in this community, we learn that to love others, we must first face the person in the mirror, embrace our inner child, and come home to ourselves. Prepare to feel deeply, challenge your inner narratives, and possibly shed a tear or two. So, take a seat, open your heart, and let's journey together as we turn pain into power, one episode at a time. Now, let go of those inhibitions, and let's get growing, because here on Love Frequency, we confront our history to shape our destiny. Keep tuning in, and remember— when you know, you grow. Episode Reflection/ Journal Prompts: Nia opens up about her quest to find a "home" and a sense of belonging. Discuss how the concept of "home" can be more of an internal than external place. The exercise of changing your phone's wallpaper to a picture of yourself during a difficult childhood moment is an invitation to reflect and heal. If you were to participate in this exercise, which image would you choose and why? Reflecting on the journey of self-love Nia describes, discuss how reconnecting with one's inner child can be a transformative step toward personal healing and growth.

Ever wonder why we often shun the very thing that could bring us relief - healing? We're taking you on a transformative journey to uncover the truth behind this paradox in our latest podcast episode, where we dissect the reasons why we dodge healing, and how these barriers limit our personal growth. We're peeling back the layers of self-avoidance and distraction, aiding you to discover your innate power that has been stifled by pain. Join us as we journey back to the creation of Love Frequency, a beacon in my personal battle against loss, that has since morphed into a platform helping others metamorphose their heartache into fortitude. We'll then divert our conversation towards the 70-20-10 model of learning, and its profound implications in our healing journey. We'll debunk the concept of intellectualizing as a distraction, and shed light on the importance of personal experiences, interactions with others, and novel experiences as catalysts for true growth and healing. This episode culminates in a discussion about embracing love as the ultimate answer to our woes, and how investing in oneself could open doors to your highest, freest, and unedited self. We're challenging you to take control of your healing journey, to find your power, and to share this journey, because at the end of the day, your story could be the lifeline someone else is desperately seeking. --------- EPISODE CHAPTERS --------- 0:00 The Avoidance of Healing 9:54 The Impact of Distractions on Healing 22:42 Embracing Love and Self-Transformation --------- EPISODE RESOURCES --------- 70-20-10 Model Send me a text!
