During the show I introduce formally my business partner Buffy Lauer and we talk about Romance Over 40! Our guest speaker was none other than “Mr. Romance” Al Cole

The energy and interaction of doing the in studio interview was exciting and it felt so great to be in the studio, the time went fast and I didn’t want it to end.

During the show we talk about Romance Over 40 for women who are single, keeping the romance alive during a long term relationship, how a woman gets ready for a date and how doing certain things almost like a “ritual” helps her feel sexier when she goes out on a date.

I open up a little more than usual as seems always to be the case when I am with Al Cole. I did an interview all about Romance a few months back on Al’s radio show “It’s All About Romance with Al Cole” on http://www.hotmix106.com maybe one day I will post it here on HYTR *wink* what’s holding me back, shyness LOL?

Manifest the Love of Your Life with The Law of Attraction! Have you ever wondered what it takes to find the love of your life? The Soulmate Secret will show you how and today’s show Arielle Ford will be on to answer your questions about finding your soul mate!

The Soulmate Secret: Manifest the Love of Your Life with the Law of Attraction will show you how to take control of your romantic destiny. Arielle Ford knows that finding true love is possible for anyone at any age if you’re willing to prepare yourself, on all levels, to become a magnet for love. Arielle used the techniques in this book to bring her soulmate, Brian Hilliard, into her life at age forty-four. They were engaged three weeks later. Now together for more than ten years, her techniques have worked for men and women from 18 to 85 years of age.

This ancient formula reveals that our universe is set up to deliver the people and things into our lives that are consistent with our personal belief system. If you don’t believe you will ever find the One, then guess what? You probably won’t. If, however, you learn to believe that the One is not only out there but is also looking for you, then true love can be yours.

I hear it all the time from my male friends, “what do women want?” I must say as a woman I need a strong man in my life (I do my hubby is wonderful but as in all relationships there are times that are trying LOL) someone who takes a stand, makes decisions and takes part of the burden off of me!  I don’t like having to make all the decisions even the small ones like “what’s for dinner, or were do you want to eat” or even the hard part having to pay the bills and be the mastermind behind which bills get paid now and which ones can wait till next payday without a late charge?

Being a mom to 3 boys, two who are autistic, and having my father in law live live with us not to mention running 3 of my own businesses and clients websites when it comes time for me to relax I don’t want to make all the decisions myself on how to run the family and our life.  I want to have a man who participates, again my hubby is wonderful most of the time in that department. I hear it from my female friends both online and offline about how they are “strong woman” but don’t want to be the one who “wears the pants” in the family….I think if every woman really looked deep down in themselves they will all say the same thing, we like to feel protected, we like to feel loved and for us loving doesn’t just mean in the bedroom…love is having a man show us they love us by participating in our lives and taking control.

I know there are times I pick a fight with my husband just to get a response or to have him tell me “Hey enough, you are out of control” I need that once in awhile, now ladies if you are reading this I am only talking about myself, not generalizing every woman on earth.

Today’s interview with Elliott Katz was a very enlightening one for myself.  I like when I can hear the “other side of the story” I don’t always know what my husband is thinking as I am sure he feels the same way I do about myself.

This interview is a must listen to interview if you are in any type of a relationship whether you are a male or female….below is more information about Elliott Katz’s book “Being the Strong Man A Woman Wants-Timeless wisdom on being a man”

The best book ever on what a man can do to make things better

Learn how to gain respect and enjoyment in your relationship. Become a hero to the woman in your life.  Being the Strong Man A Woman Wants by Elliott Katz is timeless wisdom on being a man.

Edie Weinstein-Moser is a Renaissance Woman whose work and play are one and the same: free-lance journalist, speaker, workshop facilitator, interfaith minister, licensed social worker, therapist and creative guide. as well as massage/energy worker. She touches hearts and lives by enouraging people to ‘live juicy’; bringing color, creativity and passion into their days . One of her greatest joys is offering a life changing communication and boundary setting workshop, cleverly disguised as a nurturturing touch workshop, called Cuddle Party. Edie is one of (at this point) 42 people world wide, certified to teach this fun, playful and empowering workshop. In addition, she is a member of Team Goddess; who co-facilitate an annual Goddess Retreat, dedicated to helping other women see the beauty and wisdom within themselves.

What a Cuddle Party Is: A structured, safe workshop on boundaries, communication, intimacy and affection. A drug and alcohol-free way to meet fascinating people in a relaxing environment. A laboratory where you can experiment with what makes you feel safe and feel good.

Cuddle Party

This playful, fun workshop has been a place for people to rediscover non-sexual touch and affection, a space to reframe assumptions about men and women, and a great networking event to meet new friends, roommates, business partners and significant others.

Can Cuddle Party restore your faith in humanity? It just might. But at the very least, you’ll have a great time, and leave feeling relaxed and inspired.

Rose Van Sickle Author of Peace of Mind and Peace of Body

Rose Van Sickle

“In 1980 while living in her native Michigan, VanSickle was plagued with panic attacks and clinical depression, and became virtually housebound. The practical, effective mental fitness techniques described in her book, Peace of Body, Peace of Mind, enabled her to return to school, start a new profession, relocate across the country and ultimately overcome both disorders.

VanSickle says: “Decreasing the impact of daily stressors is one of the most critical keys to good mental health.”

What do women want?

It’s an age old question. There are movies about it. There are songs about it. There are scores of books, magazine and newspaper articles, and blogs about it. Still, it seems as though there can never be enough information about this subject.

Often times, the ideas that are proposed in some of the books are controversial for the sake of sales. Claiming that men and women come from different planets is a great way to sell books, but still doesn’t answer the question of what women want.

Dean and I had Rebbekah White, host of Heal Yourself Talk, on our show this Mother’s Day to discuss relationships. She’s been married for 17 years and has three children but still manages to keep her relationship spicy. She had some great tips on how to keep the marriage spicy, including visiting the local bar separate from each other and pretending they didn’t know each other! I’m going out and using that one tonight with my girlfriend!

Listen to some of the great tips she also gives on how to make a marriage more enjoyable, even when a father-in-law is living with you.

Have you survived domestic abuse or are you now going through it?

Jennifer Munger is our special guest speaker this week. Jennifer will be sharing her story, how her mother battled depression, how her and her brother found their mother after one suicide attempt and how she has used what she has gone through to reach out and help others with her work with The New York State Coalition Against Sexual Assault.

Historically I have attached so much meaning to my “story” of the past and because of that I was living in the past and not truly focusing on the future and what I wanted to create.  I spent over 10 years in therapy, but felt as though it kept me stuck. The turning point in my life occured when  I made the choice to begin looking within…I truly took a guided tour of my inner-self.  I am a full on believer in The Secret and Law of Attraction.  I have seen them work in my life, without even realizing what it was until I educated myself.  I am now in a place where I want to reach out to other women with similiar backgrounds and help them get to a place where they can enhance their inner greatness.  Where they can truly be full of self expression, by ripping away the limiting beliefs obtained in early childhood.  I am on the Board of Directors of a non for profit called The New York State Coalition Against Sexual Assault.  This allows me to participate in changing the way society perceives the issue.-Jennifer Munger

By Michelle L. Casto, Ph.D.The Soul Coach, Speaker, Author and PhilosopherCopyright Feb 2008 by Michelle L. Casto 

Love rules.

Yes, I am a romantic at heart.

 I have always believed in the power of love to be a healing force in this world.But now I know there is something even greater.   My first book was on romantic love and I remember how for inspiration I would record mixed tapes of songs that represented the kind of love my soul longed for.   One of those artists was Stevie Winwood’s Bring Me a Higher Love.  When I hear it today, 10 years later, I still love it.  Ever since then I have been on a quest to grow my understanding of what True Love really is.  Allow me to share my findings.    During my 20+ years of reading and researching this topic, I have discovered that there are four kinds of human love.   

Fantasy:

Fantasy love is the erotic style and  based on infatuation of the physical kind. Fantasy relationships are high in intensity but fleeting, and often end in disaster.

False: 

False love is the pragmatic style and based on a business arrangement of the mental kind.False relationships are high in security and last as long as both parties are in agreement. 

Romantic:

Romantic love is a blend of erotic & pragmatic with a dash of emotional and based on the human arrangement of the survival kind.

Romantic relationships are high on the priority list of modern human beings and last, again, as long as both parties are in agreement.

 Divine: 

Divine Love is the spiritual style and based on divine order of the souls involved.

 Divine relationships are an expression of purity and require surrendering to a higher purpose. Divine Love is ever-lasting.   

New Thoughts on True Love

 The first three kinds of love are limiting because they are formed from the personality of two human beings instead of their divinity.  As such, duality reigns supreme:  highs and lows, love and hate, togetherness and separateness.   These relationships are much like a roller coaster ride, which both thrills and chills.  

Love is not about he or she is so smart and gorgeous, we love the same things, we think the same way, we have so much in common, or we like the same foods.

 True Love is deeper and way more challenging than that.   Divine Love is a gift to the sincere seeker of Truth who allows love to alchemize herself to become more aware, purposeful, and alive. 

As Michael Brown of the Presence Process says, love is not about sleeping together, love is about waking up together.

 St. Germain says that True Love is always understanding and not always understood.  Truly, there is a Oneness that presides over a sacred union.   The love equation of fantasy, false and romantic love is this:  1 +1=  2.

It works like this.

 Two personalities who need someone else to complete them, decide (consciously or unconsciously) to join so they can each pursue their own gratifications. The relationship is formed around their external life events, roles and commitments. Divine Love is created in a radically different way and may even seem beyond belief at first thought.  The love equation of Divine Love is 1 +1= 1 As I understand it, two souls who know they themselves as the Source of Love are joined by God/Goddess/All That Is.  They often meet in a synchronistic way— some might even call it destiny.  Life is formed around the relationship, and often brings radical transformations in each person, their livelihoods and even living situations.   All relationships serve to grow our soul and offer healing to unresolved aspects of our psyche.  In the first three kinds of love, you experience “falling in love.”  With Divine Love, you experience rising in love.   We all need a higher love.   It is high time human beings evolve in their capacity for intimacy, as more Love is what our world most needs right now and forevermore.   

Divine Love Defined

 By my definition, a God-given love breaks open our souls like never before, demolishes the protective shield around our hearts, lifts the mental fog, and softens our bodies to receive.   Divine Love allows both people to become great for the Divine—to become so full of who they are in order to share fully and deeply divine attributes like love, joy, peace, faith with each other and for the greater good of humanity.   

Divine Love is a catalyst for growth (that is the waking up part). 

The light of Divine Love reveals all the unhealed aspects of your psyche. 

As such, it is challenging to the ego, to say the least. 

 As long as your ego is calling the shots, Divine Love will wither right before your very eyes.    For Divine Love to blossom into its fullest glory, allow your soul to take the lead, let your heart be undefended, and offer forgiveness early and often. Divine Love will bring up all that is unlike love to give you the opportunity to cleanse, clear, and purify yourself to make room for the miracle.   This is usually a growth process, which involves missing the mark repeatedly while you learn new ways of loving and relating; and literally placing the relationship on God’s alter.   If you are strong enough and smart enough to see the long-term value of sticking with this divine love curriculum, two will become one.  In sacred union, you become unifed and sanctified, resulting in a higher attraction/magnetization vibration which leads to a quantum leap forward.  

Because Divine Love is eternal, it is powerful. 

 When two souls dedicated to raising the consciousness of the planet, harmonize and synchronize in masculine and feminine energies, it is a force to be reckoned with.   

This is the level of love I am after (and refuse to settle for less).

 Tall order. Yes.  Possible. Yes.   Will you be brave enough to ask and divine enough to receive? As Jessica Cochran said, God made many puzzle pieces but only those 2 ‘cut out’ for each other can fit together to create a perfect and beautiful picture.   

There is someone perfectly made for you. 

 Realize though, the image you have in your head about who would be ideal is going to be different than The One truly meant for you. There really is a higher love. And God has the big picture view of what is needed for your maximum soul’s growth and evolution.   

Go with it. Trust it.  Grow from it. 

 You will then see and feel how great Divine Love is, was and will be eternally. About the Author: Self-empowerment expert Dr. Michelle L.

It’s a trait we all desire, a winning personality.  I’m not talking about being the extravert of all extraverts and talking to everyone you meet on the street.  A winning kind of personality is developed by introverts and extraverts alike.  In fact, when learning to be the kind of person people enjoy being with, the less you talk, the better!   

Indeed, one of the greatest assets in life is friendship.  You can have all the money you want, but unless you have real relationships, you can’t be happy.  So let’s look at some tips on how to develop a real winning personality. 

First off, you want to be genuinely interested in others and show that interest.  You will never find a selfish man with a winning personality.  When we see overt selfishness in someone, we lose respect for them and become suspicious of their motives.  Ask questions about someone’s hobby or work to show your interest.  Talk more about them than about yourself. 

Also, develop some tact when you’re talking with people.  Assume that they’re trying to do their best, and speak from that foundation.  Giving folks the benefit of the doubt goes a long way in establishing relationship. 

Another secret to developing a magnetic aura is to keep an open mind.  Folks don’t like to be coerced and converted to another’s way of thinking and acting.  So listen to others’ perspectives and learn from them, even if they’re contrary to your own beliefs. 

Finally, look folks in the eye when you speak to them.  This helps foster a trust and genuineness that people respect.  Make it a habit to concentrate on something positive about the person to whom you’re speaking, and that will go a long way in establishing rapport. 

These simple skills can be developed by anyone.  Take a little time to master them, and they become second nature.  You’ll soon find yourself sought after by others and enjoying friends galore.

You’ve heard it said a dozen times.  In order to have a friend, you have to be a friend.  Sounds great on paper, but how does one reach that goal in real life?  Some folks seem to have it much easier than others in this arena.  What are their secrets?  How can you actually build more genuine friendships?

One of the primary secrets of becoming naturally magnetic is to develop a thought foundation of love and generosity.  When you’re thinking these kinds of thoughts, others pick up the good vibes.  Then they’re automatically drawn to you.

If you have the habit of complaining, it’s unlikely that folks enjoy being around you.  Even the most patient person eventually becomes frustrated when all she hears is “oh, poor me” and criticism of others.  So one way of naturally gaining more friendships is to only allow positive comments to come from your mouth! 

Developing this habit takes time, so be patient with yourself.  The outcome will be very much worth the effort, and soon, you’ll find it second nature to be positive and optimistic. 

The truth is, if you care enough to get results, you will get them.  If you really want to have more friends, you will work at breaking the complaining habit and developing the art of thinking lovely thoughts toward others. 

Also, here’s a little tidbit your grandma may have told you, and it bears repeating.  Be careful what you “repeat”. Never take for granted that it is the truth because some one told you so. They may have added a little to the original story, or they may have been misinformed from the start.   You don’t want to be put in an embarrassing position and end up losing the friends you have! Unless you are convinced that something you’ve heard is really the truth, don’t even think of repeating it.  If you do say something, include the authority who said it first. And don’t repeat anything, no matter how juicy and titillating, unless you’d be willing to say it in front of the actual person. 

Follow these simple tips, and you’ll find yourself being sought after in friendship.  Plus, the friendships you make will be long-lasting and genuine – the best kind!
