For The Love Of Men Podcast

There’s a lot of talk about “princess treatment” right now. Some of it’s light and funny, some of it’s rooted in real desire, and some of it is missing the point entirely.In this episode, we’re unpacking what’s underneath the viral reels, the lists, the standards, and what happens when a woman starts to base her worth on how much she’s being poured into without pausing to ask: Do I even want that kind of relationship?Because yes, you can want to feel spoiled, cared for, and deeply cherished…And still make space for a man to feel respected, needed, and appreciated.It’s all about getting honest with yourself and asking:Is what I’m asking for actually mine?Do I feel empowered asking for it or pressured to perform some version of “feminine”?And most importantly... what do I want to give in return?When you approach relationships from an empowered feminine lens, the goal isn’t to demand more. It’s to ask better. To check in with your own heart first. To receive without entitlement. And to let your standards be rooted in self-respect, not fear.We’re talking about all of that and more in this one.Want to work with Bri and/or Courtney?Connect with Bri on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@buildingbricoaching⁠⁠⁠Connect with Courtney on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@courtney_schand⁠⁠⁠Follow the show on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@thefortheloveofmenpodcast⁠⁠⁠Check out our website:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.fortheloveofmenpodcast.com⁠⁠⁠Looking for deeper support?Check out our Masterclasses:1️⃣ What Your Woman Wants Emotionally And How to Provide It: Unlock the secrets to fulfilling your partner emotionally!

When feminine energy is wounded it will slow down how quickly you are able/willing to respond to life. Because this energy is injured, life feels like it is happening to you and you just can’t get ahead or catch a break. This show unpacks the ways the wounded feminine energy shows up (in both men and women) so you can use the awareness to respond accordingly (don’t worry, we have a masterclass coming to show you how😉). From the empowered perspective, it becomes clearer to see what’s happening and may shed some light on why the behaviors that seem like a good idea when you’re in a wounded feminine space don’t attract the outcome/partner you’re hoping they will. Ultimately, when we are able to provide the support this part (all of us have it) needs, life gets to feel calm, centered and full of true pleasure- as opposed to drama.

Polarity is chemistry in the dating world. It creates the magnetic attraction (including sexual attraction) that draws you toward someone. The reason we teach it the way we do is because it can be created (and needs to be maintained) in healthy partnerships for them to last. When men and women are able to consciously explore their own masculine and feminine energy and integrate the wounds to each, the result is a whole person showing up to the relationship and the container of the relationship becomes a space for deeper self-awareness, authentic expression, mutual support, healing, and exploration. You bring out the best in each other when you understand how to bring the most empowered version of yourself to the relationship. Healthy polarity includes skills like seeing the empowered parts of your partner, recognizing wounded behaviors, making healthy requests, acountability, self-responsibility, healing your shadows, embodying more of your core energy and the gifts of the counter energy. Creating healthy polarity is not about behaving in a certain way, but about embodying the empowered version of your core essence. (This requires integrating the qualities of the counter energy that may have previously been triggering to witness). Hint: This actually results in the most empowered version of your core energy😉 Want more from Courtney?

1. Dating strategies (aka attraction psychology) are designed to increase desire by playing on insecurity. Focal Point: When you’re not “getting what you want” from a potential partner, consider it a red flag, not an opportunity to “inspire” them. 2.  Secure partners are attracted to people who see them in their personal power (authenticity) *and* are drawn to it. Focal Point: Long-term attraction is built when you can see someone as equally powerful. 3. Dating is about learning to trust yourself and develop discernment about what you need to feel open and expansive. This means you practice asking for what you need and want- early and often <3 Focal Point: Empowered partners are into clear communication- if you need something, ask for it (negotiate if you need to, check out Courtney’s post Stop "Compromising" in Relationships (and What to Do Instead So They Actually Work) — Courtney Schand). 4. Boundaries are meant to be internalized as we mature (feelings-based boundaries) instead of strategy (rules-based boundaries). Focal Point: Strategies are great scaffolds while you are learning to be guided by YOUR feelings. Want more from Courtney?

Ask yourself, “When did I notice I was no longer feeling like myself and what did I notice?” take inventory of what boundaries needed to have been in place so you can place them sooner next time or pivot as you move forward. It’s ok to be different than your partner AND to grow with them, you don’t have to like all the same things to be attractive Focal Point: If you feel the need to hide your quirky interests/disinterests to stay in a connection, it’s a red flag (for you) to bring more of your empowered masculine energy to support/accept you. We allow people to see us by the boundaries we set. Focal Point: It is safe to not agree with everything, in fact, others feel *safer* when we set boundaries (“actually, I think XYZ” vs agreeing to not rock the boat) because they can see clearly how to connect in a way that feels safe for them  Notice how much of yourself you can reveal and feel safe around different people Focal Point: Find people that can see and celebrate more and more of you and know where to go to belong (in the quirky facets and as a whole) Letting go of connections that you’re not ready to let go of (good friends you aren’t able to spend time with anymore) can be an indicator that you need to create clarity for yourself before proceeding. Make a list of what you need and allow the dating process to refine the list Focal Point: There’s a difference between compromising your values and understanding yourself more through the experiences you’ve had.  Stop compromising in relationships and start negotiating for your needs Focal Point: If you’re wanting something long-term, it will not feel safe to be with someone that is trying to please you and has 0 needs. Clarify what you need and negotiate as you become aware of them (see Courtney’s post on negotiation Stop "Compromising" in Relationships (and What to Do Instead So They Actually Work) — Courtney Schand) Want more from Courtney?

The intention of this show is to bring together men and women in harmony and honor each other's masculine and feminine energetic cores to create healthy, polarized relationships. What makes friendships work? Friendship, like any other relationship, is the space for more authenticity. This requires a willingness to step in and see someone else’s authentic self as well as offering your truth in return. Focal Point: What makes friendship valuable to you? (your friendships may require something specific to be satisfying and they won’t know unless you ask for it, so go for it) What do they feel like when they are healthy? Friends that bring out the best in you are able (and willing) to see you and celebrate the ways you enhance their experience by being in their life and hear and honor your needs/“no”. Focal Point: Notice where in your life you feel the most “you”, can you invest more appreciation, time and energy into nurturing those connections? What are some sneaky ways friendships get off balance/why? Jealousy… It’s easy to feel jealous when other women’s uniqueness is being displayed, especially if you aren’t feeling your own Masculine energy’s support- this will have you *acting* out of jealousy instead of using it to learn and develop new skills/interests. Focal Point: Notice your pattern with jealousy in relation to other women. If you’re wanting more/deeper connections with Empowered women, they will provide an opportunity for you to display your uniqueness. You choose what to do with your awareness- compare it or celebrate it. How to choose friends as an adult (that wants to be the healthiest version of yourself)? The more you prioritize healthy relationships, the more you will be able to communicate in a way that prevents resentment. This will ultimately attract new friends with more similar values/skills (what makes friendships “work” for them) and will naturally create space for other people to step into greater maturity or fall away. Focal Point: A healthy relationship is able to honor both parties and find a win-win. What happens when you say “no” in your current relationships? Can you lead the practice of saying or hearing “no”? Want more from Courtney?

What is “wounded” feminine energy? When the feminine energy is wounded, it will express in one of two ways- having unclear boundaries (people have a hard time seeing you/people-pleasing) or difficulty recognizing what is “yours” and “theirs” (over-functioning in relationships) How does it happen? The feminine wound tends to happen over time. It can be modeled from society or previous generations and can be expressed in men or women. But ultimately, when masculine energy is unintegrated or disempowered (not trusted/wounded), the feminine will be more at risk of experiencing injury because she will struggle to have/hold boundaries and will be unable to act in her own best interest. How do you recognize it? Someone with wounded feminine energy will often present as flighty, difficult to pin down/ no follow-through, passive-aggressive, highly reactive emotionally, temper tantrums/entitled, etc. What is “empowered” feminine energy? The state of being where you are enjoying life with all your senses, beyond a focus only being on meeting survival needs. This feels like magic because it requires less effort to be you than ever before. Note: the dating advice changes dramatically when a woman is in her empowered feminine energy. How does it happen? The feminine will not be empowered without the inner support of her own masculine energy. This is what builds the structure for her to feel safe and resilient enough to express herself fully (boundaries, vulnerabilities, creativity, sexuality, etc. from a place of groundedness and integrity). How do you recognize it? Communication is one of the hallmarks of empowered feminine energy. She is willing to express herself authentically because she feels free, liberated, supported, and at ease internally and by her external world. Empowered feminine energy feels inspiring to be around because they see the best in you and yet they are very clear within themselves; it’s a safe, freeing energy to be around.

The intention of this show is to bring together men and women in harmony and honor each other's masculine and feminine energetic cores to create healthy, polarized relationships. In this episode of For the Love of Men we discuss: The underlying belief pattern of women that feel compelled to lead: the need to create safety in feeling chosen (not understanding our own worthiness) or the need to create safety by controlling how men show up (not understanding how the masculine operates). When we see this as an attempt to create safety, she can judge herself less for the behaviors that flow from this and get that need met more easily. Relying on strategies (“rules-based boundaries”) instead of learning to trust yourself (“feelings-based boundaries”)(3:34) Mindset shift: stay present in the moment as it unfolds and check in with what you need/what lines up with your values to discern how to respond versus behaving in a way that prevents your feeling vulnerable. Interrogating questions creates a sense of urgency and competition to incite him to action(12:11). Mindset shift: if you could see yourself through the eyes of your ideal partner, how would you feel/express yourself? Leading the conversation so there isn’t an awkward lull(15:00). Mindset shift: if you were to assume he is there because he wants to get to know you, what would feel good to share with him, and what would feel good to know about him? Overextending yourself on his behalf doesn’t trust him to provide or to ask for what he needs and creates resentment on both sides(19:50). Mindset shift: If you could see him as wanting to give to you and how does it feel to respond from that energy? Dating strategies that make you seem “hard to get”. (34:16) Mindset shift: I am naturally attractive to healthy masculine men when I focus on feeling calm and happy and let him see that. Correcting him is a subtle form of not trusting that he is smart and capable and that he wants to use those skills to make you happy (42:05) Mindset shift: I trust he is going to figure this out (if my masculine energy can do it, he is more than capable of it too).

The intention of this show is to bring together men and women in harmony and honor each other's masculine and feminine energetic cores for those who desire a polarized relationship. In this episode of For the Love of Men we discuss: Communication creates the structure for the Feminine to feel safe to surrender (and play!). Action Item: Take the lead and let us know the game plan Planning ahead of time allows a woman to transition from her Masculine energy (work mode) into her Feminine energy (the most refreshing version of her) and create the most polarity. Action Item: Give her the opportunity to relax into her femininity when you give her a few days heads up (extra points if you let her know at the end of the date) Take the lead- you are the structure of the partnership. When you focus on moving the relationship forward, it provides the next step for us to follow. Action Item: Provide the next step. Clarity= ease. Hold space for her feelings. Women express in feelings, when she's sharing feelings it is because she trusts you and is hoping to "connect" with you. Action Item: The way to help her is to ask her what she needs/"feels". Doing this gifts her the space to experience being seen and safe (this is an attractive building experience for her) Be present. The feminine feels safe when she is receiving all of your attention (often quality> quantity) Action Item: Study her with curiosity and ask questions (it doesn't feel invasive when it's done with curiosity). Bonus points- reflect on how you experience her. We appreciate your attention and would LOVE if you share with your friends, on social (tag us @Courtney_Schand and @BuildingBri in a screenshot so we can personally say "thanks"), and leave a 5 star review to let us know you got a lot out of it.

Breakups hurt. Even when you know it’s the right choice, even when you’re the one initiating it, letting go of someone you once loved isn’t easy. In this episode, we’re breaking down the first phase of a breakup: the shock, grief, emotional unraveling, and the deep questioning that comes with it.In this episode, we are talking about what actually happens in your body during a breakup, how to stop spiraling, why your mind wants to make sense of it all (even if it can’t yet), and what support really looks like during this time.We cover: - What your nervous system goes through after a breakup- Why both sides of a breakup come with grief- The temptation to assign labels too early (and why that backfires)- How to process waves of emotion without letting them control you- What friends often get wrong when trying to help- The difference between a hard breakup and a toxic one- How men and women may process heartbreak differentlyWant to work with Bri and/or Courtney?Connect with Bri on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@buildingbricoaching⁠⁠⁠Connect with Courtney on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@courtney_schand⁠⁠⁠Follow the show on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@thefortheloveofmenpodcast⁠⁠⁠Check out our website:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.fortheloveofmenpodcast.com⁠⁠⁠Looking for deeper support?Check out our Masterclasses:1️⃣ What Your Woman Wants Emotionally And How to Provide It: Unlock the secrets to fulfilling your partner emotionally!

The words you choose, the photos you post, and the energy behind them are telling a story on your dating app profile.In this episode, we’re unpacking how to write a dating profile that actually reflects who you are and the kind of relationship you're looking for, without trying too hard or playing it too safe.We talk about:The 4 levels of intentionality behind dating profiles (and why most people stop at level 2)How to show who you are, not just what you likeThe biggest silent turnoffs for women reading your profileHow to express standards and values without sounding performative or guardedWhat your photos are saying (even when they’re “good” photos)The subtle shift that helps you attract the right kind of connectionIf you’ve ever thought, “I don’t get matches I’m excited about” or “I feel like I have to put on a persona to stand out,” tune in!Want to work with Bri and/or Courtney?Connect with Bri on Instagram:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@buildingbricoaching⁠⁠⁠⁠Connect with Courtney on Instagram:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@courtney_schand⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow the show on Instagram:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@thefortheloveofmenpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out our website:⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.fortheloveofmenpodcast.com⁠⁠⁠Looking for deeper support?Check out our Masterclasses:1️⃣ What Your Woman Wants Emotionally And How to Provide It: Unlock the secrets to fulfilling your partner emotionally!

The bleeding heart man often leads with effort.He gives, he fixes, he overextends, hoping it will finally earn him closeness or certainty.And the high standards woman? She’s not wrong for wanting more.But sometimes, those standards are hiding something else, like fear, self-protection, or a deep unmet need to feel emotionally held.In this episode, we’re getting into what’s actually going on underneath this dynamic and how both partners can get what they need to feel emotionally safe without swinging into overgiving or rigid expectations.Because love doesn’t require a performance.But it does ask for truth.We’ll explore:Why high standards sometimes turn into emotional armorHow overgiving can be a hidden form of controlAnd what it looks like to shift from protection into connectionWant to work with Bri and/or Courtney?Connect with Bri on Instagram: ⁠⁠@buildingbricoaching⁠⁠Connect with Courtney on Instagram: ⁠⁠@courtney_schand⁠⁠Follow the show on Instagram: ⁠⁠@thefortheloveofmenpodcast⁠⁠Check out our website:⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.fortheloveofmenpodcast.com⁠⁠Looking for deeper support?Check out our Masterclasses:1️⃣ What Your Woman Wants Emotionally And How to Provide It: Unlock the secrets to fulfilling your partner emotionally!

For most men, this stuff isn’t obvious. No one teaches you what real safety looks like for women. Not in a classroom. Not from other men. Not in the media. So it makes sense if you’ve been doing your best but still feel like something’s missing.In this episode, we’re talking about what safety actually means to the feminine and why it’s the foundation for deeper emotional and physical connection. Not the cliché version of safety. The real, lived, visceral kind that women are tracking every day without even realizing it.We break it down into 3 core types:Physical safety: Why her nervous system is always scanning, and what makes her body relaxEmotional safety: The difference between “hearing” her and actually getting itSexual safety: Why pushing backfires, and what creates real opennessYou’ll learn:How small shifts in your energy tell her more than words ever couldWhy safety is the most underrated (and sexiest) form of foreplayWhat happens when she feels like she has to protect herself from youHow to spot the green lights that say “She trusts you now. Keep going.”There’s no script for this. But if you’re willing to slow down, tune in, and actually attune to her pace, you’ll see a version of her you’ve never seen before.Want to work with Bri and/or Courtney?Connect with Bri on Instagram: ⁠@buildingbricoaching⁠Connect with Courtney on Instagram: ⁠@courtney_schand⁠Follow the show on Instagram: ⁠@thefortheloveofmenpodcast⁠Check out our website:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠www.fortheloveofmenpodcast.com⁠Looking for deeper support?Check out our Masterclasses:1️⃣ What Your Woman Wants Emotionally And How to Provide It: Unlock the secrets to fulfilling your partner emotionally!

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by your partner's emotions or caught yourself thinking, "Why is she telling me this?," you’re not alone. And you’re not doing it wrong.In this episode, we explore what’s really happening when the feminine shows up with big emotion. It might look like chaos or intensity on the outside, but underneath, there’s often something deeper that isn’t being met. And it’s not always hers alone.We talk about:- Why her emotion might feel bigger than what you know how to hold- What that intensity could be pointing to- How to stay grounded without shutting her down- Why trying to fix it often misses the point- What comes up in you when it all feels like too muchThis isn’t about tolerating everything. It’s about understanding what her emotion is communicating and how to stay connected without losing yourself.If you've ever felt stuck between pulling away or pushing through, this one’s for you.We’re glad you're here.

When she says she wants to feel seen, she’s not asking to be admired or fixed. She’s asking to feel understood. In this episode, we’re unpacking what that actually looks like in practice. Because when a woman feels seen, she softens. She opens. She starts bringing more of herself into the relationship. And when she doesn’t, you’ll often feel her pull away, shut down, or reach for connection in ways that don’t quite land.If you’ve been craving more ease, more spark, more closeness with her in your life… this is where it starts.We talk about:- Why “not feeling seen” makes women pull away, shut down, or perform- The kind of presence that helps her feel safe, playful, and open- What you’re probably already noticing — but not saying out loud- How to create the kind of feedback loop that brings out her best- And our honest question: is roasting how men feel seen? (We’re truly curious.)Grab our new merch that starts good conversations: linktr.ee/fortheloveofmenpodcastWant more from Bri and Court?Check out our Masterclasses:1️⃣ What Your Woman Wants Emotionally And How to Provide It: Unlock the secrets to fulfilling your partner emotionally!

For most men, this stuff isn’t obvious. And we get it; you are not a mind reader. When she says something random like “Kiwis are on sale,” you’re not thinking, “Ah yes, a hidden test of my emotional availability.” You’re thinking, “…Cool? Do we need kiwis?” And paying for dates? Yeah, you’ve probably heard a million opinions: “It’s 2024, who cares?” or “Real men always pay.” But here’s the truth: It’s not about the money. It’s about what it does for her.In this episode, we break down:What a "bid for connection" really is (hint: her random comments such as “Look at that weird cloud” aren’t small talk)How missed bids create distanceThe psychology behind why covering the date (especially early on) changes how she sees you.Women notice everything. The way you handle these moments decides whether she sees you as just another date or someone worth investing in.Want to work with Bri and/or Courtney?Connect with Bri on Instagram: @buildingbricoachingConnect with Courtney on Instagram: @courtney_schandFollow the show on Instagram: @thefortheloveofmenpodcastCheck out our website: ⁠www.fortheloveofmenpodcast.com⁠🌿 Looking for deeper support?
