  13 Subtle Ways to Make Him Want You More | Rewind 11.09.2026 17min

  There are small things we do in the early stages of dating that can have a surprisingly big impact on how someone sees us, and on the kind of relationship we end up creating with them.Sometimes we’re so focused on whether someone likes us that we don’t stop to think about the tone we’re setting. Are we showing them what we value? Are we making it too easy for the relationship to exist entirely on their terms? Are we communicating what we want without even realizing it?In this episode, I’m giving you 13 practical ways to be taken more seriously by someone you’re dating. Some are incredibly subtle, but they can change the entire dynamic. And I won’t just tell you what to do: I’ll explain the psychology behind each one and give you specific examples and texts you can adapt to your own situation.Because what you establish in the beginning can follow you throughout an entire relationship. Get this part right, and you give yourself a much better chance of building something where you’re not simply hoping they choose you; you’re finding out whether the two of you can actually build something together.---►► Want to Change the Way You Show Up in Your Relationships?

  3 Traps Keeping You Stuck After Narcissistic Betrayal | Matt Monday 07.09.2026 17min

  Why can someone who treated you terribly still be so hard to get over?You know they lied. You remember the manipulation, the gaslighting, and all the ways they made you question yourself. And yet, even after you leave, you can still find yourself replaying what happened, searching for answers, or wondering whether somehow you were the problem.That’s because getting a narcissist out of your life and getting free from their effects are two very different things.In this week’s episode, I break down three of the biggest traps that can keep us emotionally tied to a narcissist long after the relationship ends, and what it actually takes to start getting your life back.---►► Ready to Break the Patterns That Keep You Stuck With the Wrong People?

  What Men Say vs. What They Really Mean | Rewind 04.09.2026 16min

  Have you ever walked away from a conversation with a guy thinking, “Wait... what did he actually mean by that?”Maybe he says he “isn’t ready for a relationship right now” but continues acting like your boyfriend. Or he tells you he “doesn’t want to hurt you” while still pursuing you. Suddenly, you’re analyzing every word, wondering whether you should give him a chance or take what he’s saying as a warning.In this episode, I’m breaking down 9 of the most confusing things men say in dating, based on real examples you sent me, including:How to tell when an “excuse” is actually a red flagWhat to listen for when someone says they’re not ready for a relationshipHow to know when someone is keeping things deliberately vagueThe difference between someone who genuinely needs time and someone who just wants something casualWhen to stop analyzing their words and start paying attention to their actionsIf you’ve ever found yourself trying to decode mixed messages or wondering whether you’re reading too much into what someone said, this episode will help you see the situation more clearly and know when it’s safe to keep going, and when it’s time to walk away.---►► Ready to Break the Patterns That Keep You Stuck With the Wrong People?

  Are You Mistaking Red Flags for Chemistry? | Rewind 28.08.2026 14min

  Have you ever wondered why you can feel so much chemistry with someone who's inconsistent, unavailable, or clearly wrong for you... yet struggle to feel the same spark with someone who actually treats you well?You may genuinely want a healthy, stable relationship. But when you've become accustomed to the emotional highs and lows of unpredictable relationships, healthy attention can feel strangely unfamiliar—and sometimes even boring.So does that mean you have to choose between chemistry and a healthy relationship? Absolutely not.In this episode, I'll show you three ways to build real attraction with the right person, including:Why emotionally unavailable people can feel so addictiveHow unpredictability can get mistaken for chemistryWhy someone being consistent doesn't mean the relationship has to lack excitementThree ways to create attraction without relying on games, anxiety, or emotional highs and lowsThe good news is, you don’t have to choose between feeling a spark and being with someone who treats you well. You can have both. And once you learn to feel attraction without needing the emotional roller coaster, it can completely change who you choose next.---►► Break the Patterns That Keep Leading You to the Wrong People → MHRetreat.com Hosted on Acast.

  The #1 sign you’re about to find love | Matt Monday 24.08.2026 27min

  Two years ago, I met Ann at one of my Retreats. She stood up in tears and told me something I’ll never forget:“I feel like I’m not worthy.”Life had given her plenty of reasons to believe it. She had spent years feeling unseen, making herself smaller, and slowly losing touch with the person she used to be.Two years later, I sat down with Ann again to find out what happened next.And even knowing parts of her story, I wasn’t prepared for everything she had to tell me.If life has ever made you question your worth or wonder whether it’s too late for things to be different, I really hope you’ll listen this one.---►► Transform Your Life in 2 Powerful Days.

  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.

  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.
