The Love Fix


Jun 18, 2021

Sherry and Carla start the show talking about the importance of listening to your gut, and then take a Love Fix question on how to recover after getting dumped and ghosted by someone with little to no empathy or compassion. Then, they welcome Katherine Woodward Thomas, award-winning licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Master Teacher, and New York Times Bestselling author, whose books Calling In “The One”, and Conscious Uncoupling have helped millions of people across the world navigate love with more self-love and confidence. Katherine shares her own personal journey of moving away from limiting beliefs in love towards deep and lasting commitment. She shares a few mindset shifts she used to create a template for the love she wanted to call in. Then, Katherine talks with Sherry and Carla about how our love style is fluid and not fixed in stone.

 

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

 

  • Yes, even your therapists and coaches are people too, with their own triggers!
  • A Love Fix question on how to recover after getting ghosted and dumped by someone who has no empathy or compassion for your feelings.
  • Why trying to get closure after a breakup, especially from a narcissist, is never a winning game.
  • Katherine shares how she went from unhappy and alone to practicing the steps in her book Calling in The One to attract the love which was perfect for that level of her life.
  • The power of setting an intention will get you what you desire rather than worrying about the future or ruminating in the past.
  • Katherine shares her advice for people who feel hopeless in love and like they are always forgotten about and left behind.
  • Resources to Katherine’s Conscious Uncoupling, along with ways to work with Sherry and Carla on overcoming codependency and gaining confidence.
  • How much of our love and attachment style is determined by how we are brought up as a child and is it really something we can change?
  • Katherine talks about the decision to consciously uncouple with her first husband, what that term means, and how it became known by the world after Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin modeled how it could be done.

 

  • Calling In The One will be re-released as a new edition, but still has the powerful ways to look at our own beliefs and what could be standing in the way of getting the love we truly desire.

 

  • Even if the breakup is 97% the “other person’s fault”, we can still look at our own 3% and learn and grow.
  • Katherine works with her clients to really get in their bodies and learn not to give their power or energy away.
