You've been telling yourself the anxiety is yours to fix. But is the anxiety a pattern or a warning? These 3 questions will tell you which is which.

In this episode, I'm breaking down how to tell the difference between an anxious attachment response and your intuition telling you someone isn't right for you. If you're a high-achiever who tends to blame yourself when dating feels hard, this episode will help you stop the self-criticism spiral and get real clarity about your relationships.

High-performers have a pattern: when something feels off in dating, we immediately start scanning for what WE did wrong. We take inventory of everything we could have said differently, ways we could be more attractive, more "relationship material." This self-evaluative tendency helps us succeed in our careers — but it's backfiring in love.

I share my own story of dating a man who checked every box, where everything felt electric when we were together, but I was consumed with anxiety when we were apart. I thought it was my problem. I thought I needed to fix myself. What I learned later — after meeting my now husband — is that what I was experiencing wasn't a me problem. It was my body telling me he had one foot in and one foot out.

Your body knows the truth. This episode teaches you how to listen.

The work of distinguishing anxiety from intuition isn't something you figure out alone; it's something your nervous system has to be retrained to feel.

That's exactly what we do inside Next Level Love League.
