  There's a particular kind of heartbreak that comes from seeing your ex move on before you have.It can leave you wondering what they saw in someone else that they didn't see in you, or whether they were always meant to end up with someone else in the first place.In this episode, Matthew answers a question from a live audience member who is trying to let go after the end of a five-year relationship.

• The Truth About Heartbreak 14.07.2026 16min

  Heartbreak has a way of changing everything. It can make the world feel unfamiliar, leave you questioning yourself, and convince you that no one could possibly understand the weight you're carrying.In this special episode, I wanted to do something different. I'm reading an essay I wrote over the last ten days about heartbreak, what it really feels like, why it can be one of the most devastating experiences of our lives, and the hope that still exists even when you can't see it.If you're in the middle of heartbreak right now, I hope this feels like someone sitting beside you in the darkness, reminding you that you're not alone and that healing is possible.I also share details about 5 Days to Mend, a free five-day live experience beginning July 20, where I'll be with you each day to help you navigate heartbreak, answer your questions, and support you through the healing process.

• How to Get Over Any Heartbreak | Matt Monday 13.07.2026 22min

  Heartbreak has a way of convincing us that what we're feeling is unlike anything anyone else has ever experienced.But not all heartbreak is the same.The pain of losing someone you never really got to have isn't the same as the pain of losing a long-term relationship. And neither of those feels like the heartbreak of someone walking away without warning.The truth is, different kinds of heartbreak keep us stuck for different reasons.That's why, in this week's episode, I talk about the four kinds of heartbreak I see most often, why each one is so uniquely painful, and what it takes to move through it.If you're going through heartbreak right now, or you're still carrying one from years ago, I hope it gives you a little clarity, a little hope, and reminds you that you're not alone.---►► Your Healing Starts Here.

• Will They Lose Interest After You Sleep Together? | Rewind 10.07.2026 18min

  Worried that sleeping with someone will change the way they feel about you?In this episode, I tackle one of the biggest sources of anxiety in dating: when to have sex, how to bring up the conversation beforehand, and what to do if you're afraid of being rejected or ghosted afterward.I also share a simple script you can adapt to make that conversation feel more natural, along with the mindset that will help you stop feeling like your happiness depends on someone else's response.My hope is that, by the end of this episode, you'll feel more confident making decisions that are right for you, not out of fear of losing someone, but from a place of self-respect and clarity. Because when you know you'll be okay no matter the outcome, you stop worrying about "losing your power" and start dating with much more confidence.---►► Try Matthew AI for 24/7 coaching and advice anytime at AskMH.com Hosted on Acast.

• Running Out of Time to Find Love? | Rewind 03.07.2026 15min

  If you've ever felt like you're running out of time to find love, you're not alone.It's easy to look around and feel like everyone else is moving forward while you're standing still. That pressure can make us settle for relationships that feel like progress, even when they're taking us further away from the love we actually want.In this episode, Matthew shares seven mindset shifts to help you let go of the fear, comparison, and uncertainty that can come with being single. He explores why there is no universal timeline for love, why being in the wrong relationship is never better than being on your own, and how building a life you genuinely enjoy today puts you in the best position to find the right relationship tomorrow.Whether you're feeling left behind, questioning your future, or simply tired of the pressure to have it all figured out, this conversation offers a healthier way to think about love, timing, and your own journey.---►► Try Matthew AI for 24/7 coaching and advice anytime at AskMH.com Hosted on Acast.

• How to stop dwelling on early dating mistakes | Matt Monday 29.06.2026 16min

  Have you ever convinced yourself that one dating mistake cost you someone who could have been really special?Maybe you replayed the texts. The conversation. The moment you wish you could take back. And because genuine connection can feel so rare, you started believing you'd ruined your chance.It's a painful place to be, but it's also where our minds tend to tell us stories that simply aren't true.In this week's episode, I talk about why we obsess over early dating mistakes, how a scarcity mindset can make us believe we've lost our only chance at love, and why one moment almost never tells you what a relationship could have become.If you've ever struggled to let go of someone because you couldn't stop thinking, "If only I hadn't done that..." I hope this gives you a different way of looking at it.---►► Try Matthew AI for 24/7 coaching and advice anytime at AskMH.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
• Will People Still Love You If You Stop Putting Them First? | Rewind 26.06.2026 16min

  One of the hardest things about people-pleasing is the fear of what might happen if you stop.What if someone gets upset? What if they pull away? What if the relationship changes?In this episode, Matthew, Audrey, and Stephen explore why so many of us struggle to set boundaries, speak honestly about our needs, and tolerate conflict in our relationships. They discuss how people-pleasing often begins as a way of feeling safe, loved, and accepted, and why it can become such a difficult pattern to break.The conversation explores the hidden costs of constantly keeping the peace, the surprising rewards of disappointing people, and why authenticity tends to attract healthier relationships while exposing the ones that depend on your compliance.At the heart of the episode is a powerful question:Who is in your life because you always please them, and who is in your life because they genuinely love you?If you've ever struggled to say no, worried about letting people down, or felt responsible for everyone else's happiness, this episode is for you.---►► Matthew Hussey’s free Three Relationships newsletter isn’t just about dating—it’s about creating a life you love.

• How To Flirt Effortlessly in Everyday Life | Matt Monday 22.06.2026 17min

  More and more people are saying the same thing: they're tired of the apps and want to meet someone in real life. The problem is that after years of outsourcing the earliest stages of dating to our phones, many of us have lost our flirting muscle.We're worried about looking awkward. We overthink what to say. We wait for the perfect moment that never comes. And we've become so focused on avoiding rejection that we often miss opportunities right in front of us. That's why, in this week's episode, I share 5 principles that can make flirting feel less overwhelming and a lot more natural.Not clever lines. Not manipulative tactics. Just small shifts that can help you create more opportunities in your everyday life. If you've ever felt rusty, awkward, or unsure of yourself when meeting someone you like, this episode is for you.

• Is going no-contact with family a mistake or necessary? | Matt Monday 15.06.2026 14min

  One of the biggest misconceptions about family estrangement is that people do it lightly. They don't. And for many, the reality is far more painful…The truth is, most people don't create distance because they stopped caring. They do it after years, sometimes decades or even an entire lifetime, of trying to make the relationship work.The tragedy of estrangement is that it's often not a choice between connection and distance. It's a choice between preserving a relationship and preserving yourself.In this episode, I talk about why the growing backlash against estrangement misses that reality, and why what looks like ruthless rejection from the outside is often deep heartbreak on the inside.If you've ever struggled with the guilt, grief, or bittersweet relief that comes with creating distance from someone you love, I hope this conversation helps you feel less alone.---►► Try Matthew AI for 24/7 coaching and advice anytime at AskMH.com Hosted on Acast.

• Are You Settling in Your Love Life? | Rewind 12.06.2026 23min

  For years, when I signed copies of Get the Guy, I would write the same message: Never settle.I still believe we should never settle for bad behavior, mistreatment, or a relationship that doesn't make us happy. But over time, I've come to see the idea of "settling" a little differently.These days, we're surrounded by endless options. And while that sounds like a good thing, it can make us constantly wonder if there's someone better just around the corner. As a result, we end up overlooking genuinely great people because they don't meet every requirement on our list.In this episode, I explore the difference between settling for someone and settling on someone—and why that distinction may be one of the most important keys to happiness in love.If you've ever wondered whether your standards are helping you or hurting you, or whether you're waiting for a version of love that doesn't actually exist, this episode is for you.---►► Every Friday, Matthew Hussey writes a personal letter to help you strengthen the three most important relationships in your life—with others, with yourself, and with life itself.

• The Small Rule That Will Change Your Life | Matt Monday 08.06.2026 19min

  Most people spend years trying to change their lives by making dramatic, big moves. Yet even after those big moves, they find themselves facing the same frustrations, the same fears, and the same emotional patterns they thought they had left behind.Why does this happen?Well, there's something we all do that quietly keeps us trapped in the same experience of life, even when everything around us changes.Over the last 18 years of coaching, I've become skeptical of any advice that promises instant transformation. Real change is rarely dramatic and overnight. In fact, it's often so subtle that most people overlook it entirely. I call this subtle change "The 5% Rule."It reveals how a surprisingly small adjustment can completely alter the direction of your future. In this week's episode I breakdown what the 5% Rule is, how to use it, and how it can change the trajectory of your life even if your day-to-day life seemingly looks the same.This one rule may change the way you look at every challenge you're facing right now.---►► FREE Video Training: “Dating With Results” at DatingWithResults.com Hosted on Acast.

• 3 Factors To Consider Before Breaking Up | Matt Monday 01.06.2026 15min

  Have you ever wondered if you ended a relationship too soon?In this week’s episode, I share the story of a woman who found herself trapped in a cycle that many of us know all too well. After a breakup, she couldn't shake the feeling that she might be walking away from something good. So when the door cracked open again, she stepped right back through it.What happened next revealed a pattern I’ve seen repeatedly over two decades of coaching: a subtle dynamic that keeps people stuck in relationships long after they’ve stopped feeling truly fulfilled.The challenge is that these situations rarely involve obvious villains. There’s often no betrayal, no dramatic conflict, but just a quiet tension that leaves you questioning yourself and wondering what the right decision really is.In the episode, I break down the hidden mistake that causes so many people to stay stuck and share a simple framework to think about your own situation with greater clarity. ---►► Transform Your Life in 2 Powerful Days.

• 3 Ways To Overcome Dating Burnout | Matt Monday 25.05.2026 18min

  Modern dating leads to burnout for a lot of people, especially those who use the apps. In my brand new video, I break down why so many people feel burnt out, disillusioned, and emotionally drained by today’s dating culture. From endless swiping to getting ghosted to dating defensively out of fear of rejection, it's tough out there. And unfortunately, many people are no longer dating to find connection, but simply trying to avoid getting hurt.I explore why burnout has become so common, how heartbreak quietly follows people back into the dating pool, and the subtle ways modern dating trains us to perform instead of connect authentically. But this isn’t just a critique of modern dating and the apps. The episode shifts toward something deeper: I talk about how to maintain your confidence, reconnect with yourself, and stop letting disappointment harden you.If you’ve ever wondered why dating feels heavier than it used to, or why so many people are quietly giving up on love, this episode will hit home in a big way.---►► Transform Your Life in 2 Powerful Days.

• Are Coffee Dates A Huge Turn Off?! | Matt Monday 18.05.2026 18min

  What if one tiny dating decision was secretly shaping how people see your value? In this week’s episode, I dive into one of the internet’s most heated modern dating debates: the coffee date. It's one that’s sparked arguments across TikTok, Reddit, and dating culture at large.Some people say this common first-date move is practical and refreshing. Others claim it signals low standards, low effort, or even low self-worth. So…who’s right?I unpack the surprising psychology behind why this topic triggers such strong reactions, how dating apps have completely changed expectations, and why many people may be focusing on the wrong thing entirely.The conversation goes far beyond dating etiquette. It’s really about confidence, perception, emotional investment, and what actually matters when building a genuine connection.By the end, you may completely rethink what makes a date meaningful in the first place. ---►► Never Face Your Love Life Alone Again.

• 4 Step Approach To Stop Obsessing Over Someone 11.05.2026 18min

  Have you ever stared at a text message for 20 minutes trying to decode it and then another 20 minutes trying to figure out how to respond to it? In this week’s episode, I dive into the obsession and overthinking that can happen in dating, when every text, silence, and tiny interaction suddenly feels loaded with meaning. (And yes, I act out the entire internal meltdown we’ve all had while trying to craft the “perfect” reply.)More importantly, I share a powerful framework I teach to my coaching clients called the “CALM Method,” designed to help you stop spiraling and regain emotional control. We explore the idea of the “bodyguard," which is the protective part of you formed from past experiences that tries to keep you safe, but often also creates anxiety. I’ll walk you through practical steps to calm that fear, reconnect with yourself, and focus on real compatibility instead of fantasy. ---►► If you want to stop feeling invisible on the dating apps, get out of situationships, and get real commitment, check out my free online masterclass Dating With Results: DatingWithResults.com Hosted on Acast.
